There's only $300 difference between the two the 41 being that $300 more expensive. i don't have one less than 38 mm so for me I'm not sure I would want the 36 mm however my wrist is seven and a half inches if I had a smaller wrist I could save a lot of money on a lot of watches by going with the 36 mm. In your case you have to determine what you are happy with i would think the 36 mm would be just fine.

I’m a pass if it’s not what you want kind of guy, but in this case, considering similarly and difficulty to acquire…

Buy the 36..

I prefer the 41 mm, but you should definitely buy the 36 mm. Worst case, sell it and get the 41! Keep us posted

Speaking for myself not a fan of this dial on a Rolex watch but if I really had to choose it would be the 36mm.

41 is too big for you. I have a 7 and feel my DJ41 is too big for me and never wear it

as everyone has already said. Makes sense to go for it. You can aways sell it to fund op41.

Firstly, you must go see the watch & try it on & see if it's what you are looking for.

I have a 6.5 inch/16.5 cm wrist and went for the 41mm.

The watch is supposed to be a celebration of Rolex; it has (I believe) the largest dial (dial not case) of any Rolex and is a fun piece and meant to be worn large (IMHO). While 36mm may be a classic size for a DJ or DD, I think this piece begs for a large dial and the lug-to-lug of the 41 just works for me & I couldn't be happier with it.

All that said, only you can gauge how your AD will react if you decline. I, personally, would not deliberately buy a watch I didn't want & sell it. If you really want the 41 after you try on the 36, tell the AD that it just isn't the one you want & you hope they will consider you for a 41mm when one comes in. I think this is a better option than trying to flip it behind their back.

Buy the 36mm and sell it and go grey for the 41mm.

Yeah, I said it.
