DH has asked me to choose on. Definitely going 2nd hand, sorry preowned, but I can't decide which size to go for.

My favourite model is the Datejust but I can't decide between 26mm or 31mm.
DD thinks I might regret the smaller size because women tend to wear bigger watches nowadays but I think the smaller one looks less bling.

I've never owned such a special piece of jewellery and don't want to get it wrong.

I have three oyster perpetual datejust in sizes 41mm, 36mm and 28mm and in my opinion the 28mm is more timeless therefore I would purchase the smaller size if it is your first Rolex.

Although just realised you have wrote 26mm can you not find a 28mm one?

I've got the oyster perpetual date just and it's the smallest face as I have very small wrists.

Mine has diamond in it, it's 25 years old this year, same as me :)

I got it for Christmas. Agreed on second hand, I don't like new jewellery just purely on principle. I hate the throw away culture we have today.

Stick to a smaller model. I have mine serviced regularly, but it still loses time. I wear mine everyday, but am thinking getting rid of it now.

This is mine it's the smallest face so may be smaller then the new ones as mine is 25!
