Mesmerizing Blue Dial on the 114300 OP 39

I just can't stop staring at it! The dial changes color in every lighting and at every angle. I've never seen anything like it.

Nobody makes a better blue than Rolex. I wonder if the OP dial will fade into purple over time?

Hmm not sure! Only time will tell.

I do agree that Rolex's blue dials are second to none.

Congrats on the purchase . I'd be very interested to see how they make sunburst dials.

Stunner. The green dots just make the blue dial pop.

To be honest... I tried on that watch once, and I found it so totally boring.... on the pics the blue dial looks nice, but in reality it just looks plain.

In the end I went for a 2-tone GMT Master.
