    In a world of 40MM watches dominating the spotlight, the smaller case sizes get far less attention.

    I'm really curious to hear what your favorite model smaller than 40MM is?

    Here's some information about my pick! The Rolex Date 15233.
    Manufactured by Rolex. This Rolex is a model 15223. This Rolex Date 15223 was produced in the year 1998. On a condition scale ranging from fair to unworn, this specific Rolex Date 15223 is in near mint condition. The Dial is sunburst champagne with yellow gold baton hour markers and black print. The Rolex Date 15223 with stainless steel case is 34mm in diameter. This Date is secured with a Rolex Oyster bracelet and folding clasp which is in stainless steel. This Date is powered by an automatic Rolex Caliber 3135.

    Seems like you're on a Rollie kick as of late....looks great. I like the modern 40mm+ DJ's as well.

    I made a mistake and put greater than 40MM. I meant less than 40MM - Yes Rolex kick for sure, I've had a few gems in the past week.

    My 1999 Air King at 36mm is my favourite.

    Might as well go for the Day-Date 36:

    Lots of vintage references, including 1803, 6542, 6239, 6263, 6238, 5508, 6536, maybe 6538, etc.

    Although I am a committed Omega lover I have owned a few Rolexes over the years, which tended to be traded off for something else when the need arose. However I could not resist this a year or so ago - just a humble Datejust, but I like the tapestry dial. It is a full set 1997 piece in such mint condition that it must have had a Rolex service refinish before I bought it.

    Vintage Daytonas at 37mm gets lots of attention ;)

    But if you're looking for non sports, Day Date for sure- at 36mm

    Well, all 3 of mine are 36mm. I've liked that size since buying my first in '01. The TT DateJust gets the most wrist time of the three.
