New Member from Canada seeking advice
Gentlemen, firstly let me thank you in advance for any and all responses to my post.
I am looking at purchasing a DATEJUSTII. This is my first move into this market; currently I have an average run of the mill $200 watch that suits me fine for everyday use. I am researching Rolex watches and the DJII Steel and Yellow Gold, Slate Dial 116333, appeals to my taste and style. Now that I have matured in my life and career I am seeking a watch that I can add to my attire while attending events but more importantly I desire something like a Rolex Watch that I can hand down to my daughter, then some day, if I have a grandson, it can be handed down to him. A family keepsake. I am 6'1" 210lbs just wondering if this 41mm DJII is too big for me and my average sized wrist. I like a fair size watch but I do not wish for a watch that is too big that it looks gaudy on my wrist and I then look like a rapper wanna be. Suggestions/thoughts gentleman, and ladies too, are most welcome! Last edited by nfld; 3 October 2011 at 11:49 PM.. Reason: grammar |

Welcome. At your height & weight the 41mm should be fine.

wrists...
Welcome, and by the way, I have a 6.5 inch wrist, and I am getting ready to buy a 40mm watch, so I think you will be fine with a 41mm watch. Who knows, in the future our kids will be wearing frying pan sized watches...
