Even it is only 44mm. Rolex likes to stay in the "tasteful" range.4pfrench wrote:F Ben

With this exception:
Re: Biggest Rolex?
The DSSD is the largest overall. However, for largest dial, my guess would be the newer 42mm Explorer II.

Re: Biggest Rolex?
I love the explorer ii, it seems like it's a decent size. A little less pricey than the DSSD too, lol

What about the YMII? It's fairly big too, right?
Re: Biggest Rolex?
Forgot about these - I think they check in at 44mm. Never been on my radar screen due to the price and for other reasons.matt.wu wrote:What about the YMII? It's fairly big too, right?
I think the Sky Dweller also checks in at 42mm, but really high price.

DeepSea is the biggest, baddest and most technologically advanced Rolex Diver.
OK I had plenty of bourbon, all small wrist wussies I'm ready for your excuses.

Great comparison shots!
Surprised how the Explorer fairs pretty well in head-on comparison shots.

You're right Zack, the YM II has a massive presence indeed....especially in all gold. Turned me off of it.

Re: Biggest Rolex?
Biggest Rolex mite be this one but this just mite be a little to big even for guys who like big watches. The crystal and crown on this baby just outrageous.
