yes, ref 1803 is 36mm

1976 · 8 October 2016, 04:47 AM

1971 1500 Date : 34mm is very comfortable on the wrist! Great proportions too in my humble opinion

Birky101 · 9 October 2016, 03:00 PM

This week I came into my 34mm manual wind 6694 from '85. It seems to be running to COSC, fwiw. Bracelet should be coming in soon too. For now it's on leather. I really like this watch!!!!

TurboWatch · 16 November 2016, 04:11 PM

34mm:

42mm on same wrist

Beside the few 6694 precision which I posted earlier, I have also added 6426 oyster Royal In my collection. The Blue second hand is very difficult to capture in the photo. Cheers

Still a great watch and I really enjoy the change to 34 mm on occasion. Fits great and super comfortable

august1410 · 26 February 2018, 01:35 AM

I have a 6.5 inch wrist. My 15003 fits me perfectly.

lamckstephen · 24 March 2018, 12:50 PM

Please show off yours 'small' watch from your collection. Cheers

Just wonderful. While everyone is hung up on bulky sport watches, and I don’t think it gets more beautiful than that watch. Perfection.

This is a great thread. Here is my 1958 Air King 5500, which I absolutely love. It came with a later model Oyster bracelet, stamped 1971. Found it on eBay from a seller in England. Back from a recent service and ticking like a dream.

My 34mm 15038 was the first Rolex I had and the only one for 31 years before I bought a SubC.

A gift from my late Mom, it has been serviced at RSC Dallas, and they did a great job. Very accurate, and it reminds me of Mom every time I wear it.

I added the alligator leather strap and an 18kt buckle while it was at Rolex.

I posted these photos elsewhere on the forum but I can't resist adding them to this thread.

Some fantastic watches on this thread!

Here’s my ‘72 6694 with grey dial. Recently added a grey perlon strap and still debating if I should keep it or if I should go back to the Oyster bracelet.
