Should Rolex Kill Off 28mm Watches?

[Cru Jones]

I’m pretty sure Rolex knows what sells.

Rolex would be stupid to get rid of the 28mm size because there are a lot of petite gals out there and not every gal likes the big sizes. Hence, in 10yrs from now who would to say smaller watches will be back in style again right. There is always a cycle in our fashion where styles comes back after 10-20yrs.

My wife wears 31mm and it looks cool as does 28mm.

Then maybe we can go back to business !

You're hired!! Rolex Order Fulfillment Director!!

Seriously, you would think they would eliminate the 26 or 28 (economies of scale.) Or the 34 mm's which are so close to the 36. Why not convert the lower volume production capacity to the higher volume sport model cash cows!?

My wife has a 28mm....and it looks big on her.

Yeah, the small gals need it. My GF has about the smallest wrists and hands I've seen on a grownup. Here is a 28mm on her.

Same goes for my wife. Anything larger than her 28mm would look out of place.

Leave it as is. I am not a fan of large watches on women, my 2 cents.

They made 28mm Tudor Lady Sub, and a 33mm Tudor Mini-Sub. My wife has the latter.

No.

Many people prefer the smaller styles despite trends. My wife’s is a 26mm and I think it’s a great watch for her and looks great despite today’s larger watch trends. In my opinion it’s more classy and elegant and timeless, and fits better for certain people and their taste more than the bigger is better mentality.
