Bought one! Jan 2025. Realised its elegance only after wearing it once at home! 😍 simplicity is the ultimate sophistication

I’ve had this model for a year and it’s been an absolute dream to wear everyday. Giving myself a pat on the back for choosing such a timeless piece. Understated, yet recognized by those in the know… exactly what I was hoping for in a first luxury timepiece. I’m excited for all the stories to come and hope to pass it down to my future son one day. The OP 41 is beautiful, respectable, sophisticated, masculine, and sleek - well done, Rolex.

This is the most boring, uninspired Rolex in the entire line. It's like dating the ugly sister. You should have just bought a Seico.

I’m so happy you covered this watch so well. The overhead shots as it’s laid down as you discuss “symmetry” looks very professional and frame the watch the right way. This is my first and only Rolex (the OP41 Black) and I’m not inhaling ‘copium' in saying it is my favorite all time Rolex…based on its elegant simplicity. A well done video. Thank you

@itsallrobbish2 күн бұрын
I think it looks really classy. I can’t afford one, so I bought a German GADA watch, the Damasko DS30, not as dressy, but is of a similar ilk, plus I wanted a subtle date complication, it’s my idea of an everyday watch, built to last the rest of my days. Thanks for the superb video.

I would choose this any day over Datejust with oyster and steel bezel. That’s basically the same watch with a date for a big premium. And for me the Datejust without jubilee or fluted bezel is a Datejust without it’s identity. They better call that an Oyster Perpetual Date instead of Datejust
@rafaeloliva64255 ай бұрын
Agreed, but I wouldn't buy an OP or an explorer. That is dating the ugly sister!

I got this in the bright blue (the dark blue, go figure) last year. Only had to wait a year… it’s a beautiful do anything go anywhere watch for sure. I tried a Wimbledon date just and it was far far too showy for me. Op is classy and timeless

Hi, I bought the OP 39 with the rhodium dial and the baby blue pips back in 2016. I even declined the Explorer because I think the grey dial might be even more versatile than a black dial. Having said that I have to confess that I would have bought the black dial version introduced a year later instead. And I still prefer the dial layout of the older OP. The double batons is a bit too much for my taste. Best wishes, Claus
@ccooper87855 ай бұрын
It is a pity rolex do not allow the customer to have dial and bezel options like they used to. The current pastel dials in particular are very unattractive. Good to see they have finally discovered AR coatings and updated their lume to finally catch up with their rivals.

I own the 2018 version of this watch, so slightly chunkier lugs. Love it. The feel is like a sports car on the wrist. This was my wedding watch. Also, I think the double batons are stunning (and the only Rolex with fully chamfered indices. The 39 doesn’t have them.)

I bought my 41mm OP w/ silver dial and yellow gold indices in March 2022 after they were announced at tail end of 2020. I did not want any other color. I dressed up and went to three local Rolex Dealers in December 2021…March 2022, one dealer called me and told me they had it and I had to pick up within 48hrs. I was there the next morning. No need to adjust for the date. Easy link extension on bracelet. Brand new movement with 70 hours. Solid Rolex Quality. Very low key. I wear it in Los Angeles ALL the time and not worried about being robbed. I was saving up for a used Submariner (going for $9k minimum on Chrono24 during pandemic)… But when I saw this, I needed it. It was also an awesome buying experience. I did a review as well on my channel: AlwaysFTW.

Cool watch, but not "multiple thousands of dollars cool." I mean, a basic Citizen or Orient automatic looks quite similar. I know, I know - they don't match the amazing craftsmanship, etc, etc. But they also don't cost $1000 to get serviced, and they tell the time almost as well 👍
