And when the youngsters start buying 36s again, you will stay with the larger watches. That is just human nature. During our 30s-50s we tend to find a style we like and keep to it for the rest of our life. I suppose there are some 70 year olds that work at looking hip but they are a bit of a caricature. Find your style and stick with it. Today that is a larger watch.

Hip huggers were in in the 70's and came back in for a bit 30 years later. Watches will do the same. Now I am waiting for you youngsters to start wearing platform shoes and NikNik shirts.

many of the very fashion conscious people in their 20 and 30s are already embracing and prefer 36-39. People at the beginning of most fashion trends...the rest will follow.

I would have said Rolex would never have done a ceramic Ex II. Never. Ever.
However a TT SD casts a whole new light on that subject.
