First Rolex - Datejust 31mm vs. 36mm?

[Cool Breeze]

Thank you all for your super helpful and insightful opinions! It’s really appreciated and makes me love this online community so much.

I ended up going with the 31mm datejust jubilee fluted bezel and champagne face. I absolutely love it and cannot believe I own a Rolex! Feels like a career milestone that at one point in my 20s (while crying on the phone to my mom in a parking lot outside law school) would never happen. ♥️

I think a daydate 36 will be the next on my list to add future watch versatility to my collection. I loved both sizes but for this version the 31 just felt like an extended piece of jewelry for me.

Congratulations! It looks beautiful on you. Wear it in good health

I tend to wear bigger watches because my wrist is larger. But I absolutely love the 31mm DJ and will be added to my future list. It looks so classic! The 36mm DJ comes across as a trend and almost masculine IMO. I hate that they took away the hidden clasp which is still present on the 31mm. Beautiful watch! I think it looks lovely on you. Enjoy it!
