Dial Size
I have searched but cannot find...
I'm trying to find information on dial sizes, rather than case size. Specifically the DJ41 vs 36. Can anybody point me in the right direction?
Thanks.

Crystal diameter = 32.7mm and 30.4mm, respectively.

A strange fact that some don’t realise. The DJ36 has the same size dial as a Submariner and GMT etc.

That's interesting thanks. Thinking about adding a DJ36 to my ND sub and polar explorer II-just need to wait for the shops to open here in the UK to try one for size.

Are you considering between 36 and 41?

Yep and the daytona. It's like Rolex see it as the optimal dial size and then do the case around it.
