I've been studying your pics incessantly! I do love the 36 on you and it define tally reads 'fun and edgy". 31 says classic and timeless. I do think it fits you better proportionately . I think what it boils down to is do you want the Rolex for a fun, chic vibe that's different from your tank which you still enjoy and wear or do you want the Rolex to be another classic look that's a bit chunkier than your tank?
One more thought.... Have you considered the Rolex air king out the millgaux ( sp?). I think they are oyster band but they are 34 mm I believe and would be the perfect size for you and more casual in feel. I don't think they come in jubilee band but I could be completely wrong. It's been a few years since I looked....

Thank you!!! I do want sporty and fun BUT when I went again to try them today I decided to go with the 31mm. The watch guy was concerned that the 36mm wouldn't fit right when it was sized and while I LOVE the 36mm "off" of my wrist, I just felt like it wasn't quite right "on" my wrist...as much as I wanted it to be. If my wrist was a little bit larger it would have been fine, but as it is, seemed a tad silly...like I have as wearing someone else's watch.

I didn't try those other 2 watches because I wanted a blingy watch (haha) and I'm really happy. They're special ordering it because they didn't have that combo so I'll do a reveal when I actually get it.

Thank you ALL for your helpful opinions and feedback...i feel like I made the right choice. 😊

Late to the party, but hey, congratulations!! :p :woohoo: I think the 31mm is perfect, it's more transitional/multitasking - can be sporty and pared-back but still very dressy when you need it ;)

Looking forward to pics when it arrives :yes: :popcorn:

Thanks Skyqueen! You know when you want something to work and you know deep down that it doesn't? Ha! Well that was the 36mm! Excited to get it! Will be fun since it will be post-holiday when things have gotten back to their normal pace!

Happy Hannukah to those celebrating!
