Hi Guys !!! So as many of you know I've owned the Rolex Oyster Perpetual 114300, 39mm OP for over a year and I've been asked a number of times by different members to comment on what I think about this watch... IS IT WORTH IT. Well here are my 3 Things I ❤️ (Love) and 😡 (Hate) About The 114300

Nice review and agree with it, especially the part about the clasp. You think it would make sense for Rolex to incorporate the easy link in all modern pieces. Oh well

Thanks for the love! Yes indeed. I feel the same way. The clasp isn't a deal breaker for me but for some it maybe.

Hey bud, great video! I just got my OP39 a week ago, and like you, it was the Rolex that actually made me WANT a Rolex instead of just looking at them as a necessary part of my collection.

Glad to hear you still love it!

Hi Emkwan, great review. How does the polished bezel look a year in?

a few hairline scratches but for the most part, it's held up well.

nice. Love the look but its one of the few things that prevents me from pulling the trigger, given the ceramics will basically be pristine for the life of the watch.

I randomly watched your review on Monday before even joining the forum. I love many Rolex designs, but the blue face OP39 has quickly become my favorite. It'll be the my first Rolex.

Thank you for your insights!

Great review. I'm convinced on getting an OP 39. Going with the dark rhodium as I already have a bluesy sub.
