OP34 size comparison

Here's my OP 34mm compared to the very popular stainless Daytona.
The OP does not wear as small as one might expect.

Don't worry, none of the watches touched each other.

Your wrist is to small for a watch over 41mm. The Daytona and OP look great on your wrist.

Nice side-by-sides, thanks.

The nicely filled out lugs of the OP + thin bezel (so, large dial) help it to wear larger.

Love that dial! Good comparison with the 116500. I’m considering adding the OP39 white myself.

I can wear 42 fine though, Seiko SKX007 and speedy pro fit nicely

Yep, definitely wears larger due to the thin bezel

Yes! It fits so nicely under a cuff
I love how the dial changes it's colour, Rolex makes the best sunburst
