Thanks thanks. the bigger watches does look more challenging for me.. but thankfully I’m more a dress watch person so the usual 38-39 are still ok. Plus the bezels are usually thinner as well so... the 42-44s are hit and miss(more miss) and I can’t carry it off much... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because Santos is a squarish watch, the "square" bezel looks best when seated well within the span of the wrist. To each his own, however. I get what you mean. yah. I also have small wrist so I have problem buying watch. hahahhaha. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now still feel a bit wasted as I couldn’t find one that is in as good condition back then plus the price increase for the Daytona is 😭 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Throttle2 Supersonic September 24, 2020 Share September 24, 2020 36mm is classic size. Great balance for non sports Rolex. Classic never dies. Rolex understands that while improvements and new ideas must evolve, its simply stupidity to reinvent the wheel. Panerai is smart in making the U turn to go smaller. 38mm proportion is excellent and will find its place.. But not sure if they can maintain the long term brand loyalty Tudor has done well, capitalizing on its heritage with retro designs for its dive watches, successfully “ending” the journey of its reliance on big brother Rolex. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. Belong to the group that thinks Exp 1 should be 36mm classic proportion. Lately hearing news even the current 39mm Explorer may suffer the same fate as the OPs and will no longer be offered in 39mm. Everything is going upsize.. The new Sub is now 41mm making my decision to get a Blue/Black bay even easier. Edited September 24, 2020 by Atachi Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually whats probably more important than just the case size is the proportions and profiles with respect to the whole watch, dial design, crown size. Some of Rolexes previous “upgrades” failed largely (pun intended) becos of poor proportions and profiles. Most famous Losers in this Category included the Daydate2, Datejust2 which was then replaced with DayDate40 and Datejust41 The Daydate40 became an instant hit due to its perfect proportions despite a larger case for this iconic model, also for the use of a mesmerizing never seen before olive green dial. The Datejust41 (which i recently bought) shared this success for similar reasons. However, despite bigger sizes, the classic 36mm will always have its place in a Rolex collectors portfolio.
