They are mostly sport or tool watches, so that's the style.
Dive watches for example are large, because a diver needs to see it underwater. Pilot watches are usually large for similar reasons.
The type of watch you're describing is a dress watch which Rolex isn't known for.
If you look at brands like Patek, Vacheron, JLC, Nomos, ALS, you'll find some beautiful watches that would likely be more appealing to your tastes.
You're not the only one who feels this way, there's a watch for everyone.
