I love this OP green dial. I finally received mine this Sept.
awesome congrats!
Same here 👌🏻
I'm currently on the waitlist for the OP41 and there are 4 reasons why I prefer it to the DJ.
1. All brushed bracelet, which to me makes it way more sporty
2. no date, I wanted a watch I can just throw on without needing to set am/pm
3 the price, its cheaper
I understand for a dress watch how the DJ is better but for everyday watch give me the OP
I agree the all brushed bracelet is more sporty and better for everyday, the polished center links makes it more dressy. Also the center of the clasp is also polished making it a scratch magnet! Good luck I hope they call soon
Black OP41 was allotted to me 1 weeks after requesting. If you want other dials, thats where the waiting game is.
wow that's really fast congrats awesome watch!
I too prefer the OP to the DJ and even Explorer. It's such a clean simple look!! Can't go wrong with that.
Not sure if you still have access to this OP41. If can you tell me if the new Tudor rubber strap and endlinks fit it please? Both are 21mm lug width. TIA.
sorry I don't have the OP anymore
Ah ok, thanks for responding. I believe the latest DJ41 might also have a 21mm lug width too. Not sure if you have one? Presumably DJ and OP share same case….
Such a chill piece. Like a Master's color blazer on the wrist. I think I prefer the older red grape, though!
You got the color spot on!
The semester matches well with the outdoor messenger!
a prefect match!
I’m currently on a Waiting list for this OP Green 41 & or the 36 in several AD’s in Australia
With virtually no chance of getting one
I’m considering buying the BB 41 Burgundy on rubber strap in the meantime
My eyesight isn’t great & need a daily wearer which has great Lume & a dial that’s easy to read.
I’d think either would be great to dress up or wear casual
Which would you recommend as the better overall Lume & Dial legibility?
I do think that the BB 41 Burgundy would be a better choice since you don't have to wait. It also has great lume and it is very legible the rubber strap is great I will have a strap review soon on it. I also just picked up the jubliee bracelet for it that I'll review soon too!
@@HawaiianHorology Thanks! makes the choice even easier now.
Look forward to the strap review.
I was actually thinking of buying the jubilee as well.
Jubilee would be perfect for dressier occasions and rubber for casual
That or pickup an Oris Big Crown Pointer Date
Both would cost me around the same price of the OP.
Hello,
I have the BB41 and the OP41 and I wear the BB wayyyy more. It feels more substantial on the wrist built to be worn. Don’t get me wrong the Rolex is fantastic, but I definitely have to have a reason to wear it.
I wish online reviewers would stop with the nonsense. "At $6,400 it's a great value" or "At this price your getting a deal". Please. In the end it is a good watch. Exceptionally well made and finished. But can we please stop being delusional?
It's a stainless steel watch for $6,400. Think about it.
If you think about it all luxury items are over priced and don't represent any "value" if you want value for you money buy a casio or timex and call it a day
@@HawaiianHorologyyou bought a name buddy an overpriced name... Does it fill the hole in your soul? 😂
Just buy what you like. People hate Teslas and I have two. I also have a BMW M3 and am shopping for a Porsche 911S. I collect watches and have several Rolexes, Panerai, Omega etc. Just buy what makes you happy.
@@mocheen4837 does that stuff fill the hole where your personality usually belongs? Or are you born shallow? 🤨
I just got the Oyster perpetual with blue face. It was a touch choice between that and the explorer. I think the OP is just more versatile, More dressy but still sporty.
great choice!
I have the same in 36mm, you made the right choice. Unless it’s a vintage Explorer, it won’t warrant the same amount of demand.
Its 21mm lug width (sorry I am a lug width vigilante 😂).
I love the simplicity, double batons, no date/cyclops (and 21mm lug width ; ) but it's very underwhelming if you expect too much from it.
The green is too matt, and the blue too sunburst IMO. Am not keen on the bezel shape (very light reflective too) or tiny crown and its a shame its not just chamfered with a bigger crown like the EX1/DJ.
Something about a basic Rolex is very cool though. I feel the same about the Tudor Ranger.
Yeah thanks 21mm make sense since all their new pieces are 41 and 21. And I agree it is a cool watch even though it is a bit basic thanks for watching
Regret!?!? I love it!!
Thanks
I love the green Rolex OP 36mm it’s beautiful 🤩 😊😊
Good choice!
Ơwn 1 and love it! I’ll take this this over Rolex submariner hulk
Great choice but it would be hard for me to make that choice I love the hulk! I wish I could have got one when they were in production
Bought it preowned under retail but I got bored and sold it a year later! It’s a hyped piece definitely 😂
awesome deal!
Yep! Back in 2018 you actually can get it(Rolex 116610 lv full set for under 7k
A local watch guy is selling for 19.5 and it been sitting for months 😂😂😂
We want to see a Mr T SOTC!
one day maybe!
such an ace model. i bought it for my Dad.
such an awesome gift!
have 2 oyster perpetual green and blue, no regrets at all, probably a perfect watch
congrats!
no point spending more money for anything else, the beauty of this is its simplicity, it being cheap is just a bonus
the OP is an awesome watch!
Cheap? 7000 for a steel watch ? Are you delusional? You would buy a car that would run on Magical Fairy dust if they told you, sheep.
Curved spring bar 😂
works great for nato straps!
This is in fact a 39mm. Mesure it 😊 i own it and i love it
hmmm let me check again!
I had this in blue and liked it. I sold it because I had too many blue watches. I thought about getting this is green as I enjoyed the comfort/case as a daily wear.
I do like the mint green on the datejust better, but I'm not a fan of the cyclops. Too noticeable for me. The yellow is also awesome, but it got discontinued as well.
Too many Blue Watches!!! Go wash your mouth out immediately haha
I wish they still had the yellow as well!
The only blue watche I've owned was a seamaster 300m that I sold a while ago. I'm still searching for a blue dial watch!
Get a ss sky dweller blue dial
I sold 3 blue dials I had ... the three I kept were a JLC polaris chronograph, Seamaster Heritage 300 75th, and a Grand Seiko Omiwatari. @@HawaiianHorology
All dat MaMaCoo watches sssssoooooooo gorgeous！
Your springbar of the explorer is bend. Better go to the AD for a new one for both sides, before you drop your watch while walking and the watch will be damaged.
They are curved springbars perfect for nato straps on the explorer!
Better buy an Omega
omegas are great as well
You are talking like you can just go in a AD and buy one, that $6400 price tag is $15-25k on the grey market, which is the only place you can buy it.
I hope more watch become more available soon so we can all buy it at retail
😂. Homie lost
Bro these are 7500 2023 pre owned... what you talking about? This isn't covid and they are all over
@@ripperx444 show me where
@@dklswhshow me as well 😅
41 looks giant almost like Invicta watch.
it is big would be better in a 39
My dear,if you regret your op in green i can send you my direction and or you send me free this watch,i will accept this deception with pleasure helping you stoping suffering like this,or i exchange it with my modest but iconic rolex perpetual airking 34mm,let me know,sincerly,best regards
Eww op and dj in 41 is just wrong.
they fit my wrist great!
Wrong? The 41 number deceives…they are more like 39mm. On a typical male wrist the 36mm versions are tiny!
New friend here sending may full suppor NKUWAN
thanks
That is the best looking Rolex watch so far.
I think it looks awesome too
@@HawaiianHorology I think I missed what your biggest watch regret was.
It was that I could have bought a turquoise OP41 from my AD but I turned it down
