I say go for the one that your heart and intuition is pulling you to.

For me personally, I have the 33, and love the size. I tried on the 29 when I was browsing a Chanel boutique that had jewelry, and after wearing my 33, the 29 felt really small to me.

I had worn an Ebel for years and then decided I wanted the J12 as a chunkier feeling watch, so anything I put on that is smaller than my 33 feels really lightweight to me.

Based on the pics you shared, I personally like the 29 on you. :)

You will know when the time comes. Choose the one that makes your heart skip a beat...then come back here to share with us for a reveal!

33 is the size of my J12 and I have large wrists, so the 29 would look too small, but the 39 would look too big. If you have small wrists, which it looks like you do, go for the one that looks best on your wrist. 33 is the middle range, but on a very small wrist, it would be overpowering. .....just my opinion.....
 
I think the 29 looks pretty on you and makes your wrist look delicate. It doesn't look small or dated. The 33 is nice but looks a bit masculine and chunky on you. That size is more trendy though and so is ceramic. I say if your gut is leaning toward one pick that one.
 
The 33 looks best imo. It comes with the diamond indices too. Also the 29mm is not waterproof, only 50m, against the 33 which is 200m- if that was an issue that was important to you.
 
I vote for 33mm! J12 is in sporty style, so I think it looks better in bigger size. 29mm is too small IMO. If I need to get a smaller size watch, I wouldn't choose J12. I would rather get other style.
