I have 2 OP's, Turquoise and Celebration. Both are 36mm but my wrist is a lot smaller at 6.3". I think both look good on you but if you feel the 36 looks too small, stick with 41

Each model has its own philosophy. OP and DJ are 36. Exp2 are 40. I wear Exp2 42 myself, but only because 40 is no longer produced and finding it in new condition is unrealistic. If I had a choice, I would definitely buy 40.

36 mm when you take a macro shot of your wrist using your cell phone camera held mere inches away from your watch. Looks very "proportionate".
41 mm for all other scenarios.

I own the green OP36 and my wrist measurements are similar to yours. It feel like it is very well proportioned even though I had doubts in the beginning about the sizing as well but it has quickly become one of my favourites.

In my opinion, photographing watches makes them look bigger on the wrist. For you, I would say 41.

I vote for 36. I have been lying to myself that we have to stick with 41. But I love this 36. |

Thanks for the feedback everyone... Looks like it's still pretty mixed on 36 vs 41!

I’d go with the 36mm, it’s classy looking.

Who knows but for me, my 41mm watches are a great size! Slightly larger than 7” wrist…

6.7 inch wrist and prefer smaller watches. Went with 41 and very happy.

36mm looks better on your wrist. And it has the perfect proportions for the watch.
Having the 41mm OP, I can tell you that while it’s not a big watch, it just doesn’t look as well proportioned as the 36mm, IMHO.

Although I love larger watches, for me the 36mm in the OP looks best. The 41 has too much open face space.

36 feels small but looks perfect on your wrist IMHO.
