Beautiful! The more I wear OP41, the more I really enjoy it. Enjoy the minimalism and time only complication.

OP, congrats on the OP. As entry level goes this is spectacular! Struggled to like the OP line but recently they have been getting my juices flowing.

Some things in life are just fine without being the most expensive...latest...newest version. Sometimes less really is more.

Indeed. As a matter of fact, I had to "sacrifice" a 114060 sub, because I haven't any buyer history anymore as my AD lost Rolex.
But still happy with the result.

Congratulations! I got mine this time last year the exact same one still my most worn even though my cat isn’t too impressed.

"Entry-level" is such an ugly term.

The venerable Oyster Perpetual has been in the catalog for a very long time and was the watch worn by Edmund Hillary when he summited Mt. Everest.

Congrats! IMHO, one of the best Rolex references in the entire lineup, regardless of price.

Saw this exact watch in the AD today as an Exhibit Only watch - very nice! I looked at a lot of the AD exhibit pieces and this one was much nicer than I expected!

Lovely! No such thing as an entry level Rolex. They are all beautiful and all worthy! And these days the OPs are just as scarce as any other! Congrats!

Congrats, I love the blue hue. I just got my OP41 yesterday and suspect it will get lots of wear.
