Does anyone find the sizing with the thick clasp on the DJ 36 a bit hard for it to conform to the wrist? I have a pretty small wrist (14 cm & 14.5 cm at the bone) & had several links taken out (I think 8) & it felt like a good size in the store but now wearing it 2 days later, it feels a bit loose. Maybe b/c it was super hot the day I had it sized? I also tried on a DJ 31 & it seemed like the super jubilee hidden clasp conformed to the wrist better than this thicker one? I still love the watch so I'll deal with it LOL but was just wondering if anyone else experiences the same thing? Maybe I just need to get used to it? Thx!

I kept debating between size 31 & 36!! I hope this bigger watch trend doesn't go out!

As long as you love it, I don’t think it matters too much whether it’s trending or not! Smaller watches have been trending for awhile now, but I don’t think anyone who prefers a large watch looks out of place … trends come and go, but certain styles (like a Rolex Datejust), will always be classic IMHO.

I have a 26mm Datejust that I love, and am debating adding a 31mm or 36mm to my collection next. Originally I thought 36, but I really very much prefer the super Jubilee hidden clasp on the 31 so will probably go for that … I think the thicker clasp and overall size/weight on the 36 will be too much for daily wear on my tiny/weak wrist! But maybe one day if I workout more! 😂

Bottom line — go with what your heart loves, regardless of trend; congrats on your beautiful new acquisition! 😍

thx so much; all great advice & true. I'm actually not finding it heavy surprisingly since I have very thin weak wrists & arms too LOL! But yes that hidden clasp is so great; I wish they had kept it on the 36.. apparently they changed it a few years back. Good luck with your next collection!

I wear 16 Loves and 15 Juc since I stack more than a couple. Gives me lots of leeway around the holidays lol 🐷
It's also already 100 degrees here and I hate them sticking to me.
