I say 36 because it has the hidden clasp. Do not like the clasp that comes on the dj41 jubilee.

I think it's too small tbh

I think for a guy's wrist, and I've definitely got a small wrist as well I think 38mm is the lower limit. Anything smaller than that and it looks a bit too much like a ladies watch. Maybe 25-40 years ago it's fine but in this day and age a bit too small

I normally think 36s look too small, but i don't think so in your case

Your watch looks great. Give the DJ 41 a bit of time to allow the prices to adjust. Go try it on and make an informed decision. It is going to be hard to top your DJ. A classic.

Anyone have the new 126334 with a silver stick dial and fluted bezel? Really considering one but want to see real life pics on someone's wrist

36mm for sure. You'll never fail with this size. I have 6'8 inch wrist and this year I'm wearing more 34 and 36 mm. Happened the same, now I feel rare with 40 mm.

I don't own a 36, but nearly bought one. I ended up with a 41, but mainly because of the new movement. I enjoy the bold look of the 41's size, but love the classic look of the 36 as well. Not unlikely that I'll acquire a 36 at some point in the future. I don't think you'll regret either. :)

Regarding bracelets, I've worn oyster and jubilee bracelets on both and find them all to be very comfy, but the jubilee is probably comfier. No noticeable difference on the 36 vs. 41 jubilees in terms of feel. I just prefer the oyster bracelet with the smooth bezel in terms of style, but being less prone to stretch is nice too. With that in mind, I don't have hairy arms/wrists. Your experience may differ, based on your skin type.

For what it's worth, I'm 30 years old and have fair, somewhat sensitive skin. A good bracelet means the world to me!

I have a relatively small wrist, about 6.5". Attached is my DJ41.

For extremes, you can also see my bubbleback, which is a 32.
