Trading for One Size Bigger

Has anyone traded their watch for the same exact configuration but just the next size up? Just curious about this. Thanks!

The opposite, I traded down from a DJII to a DJ36. I realize that doesn’t answer your question though.

I am thinking of potentially going from 31 to 36.

I went from a 34 (Oyster Date) to a 42 (DJII) to a 36 (DJ and Explorer). 36mm remains a sweet spot among my other larger watches.

I'm considering going the other way. Moving my WG YM 42 for a RG YM 40

If you love the watch but feel it’s too small and that you should have gone with the larger dial do it…I wouldn’t worry who else has done it before.

I haven’t personally done the switch but my wife has and she went from a 26 to a 40. And her new watch doesn’t look out of place.

I tried watches in a variety of sizes from 36 to 44mm. 40mm (ish) Rolex seem to suit me best.

I haven't. Usually, anything in the professional line suits my taste.
