What do you all think about the OP41? Does it make sense to own considering the other two watches I own? Plain and boring or a complement to the sub/gmt?

londonpilgrim · 28 January 2023, 01:17 AM

yes, if you feel you need to mix up with new and complimentary colours. I have 2 subs and 3 gmts so they cover the iconic watches and 41 ops in tiff blue, orange and yellow when I need a splash of colour and a completely different look to the tool watches

Giovannibravo · 28 January 2023, 01:18 AM

If you were to get the Bright Blue or Green dial it makes sense.

Perfect complement

Nope. Dinner plate sized and boring dial with horribly lazy double batons. DJ41 is a better watch and can be had with smooth bezel and oyster bracelet.

Vince M. · 28 January 2023, 01:23 AM

DJ41 is a far better piece. I am not an OP fan.

Agamemnon · 28 January 2023, 01:45 AM

I had it for a while and then gave it away.
I recommend the Explorer I which has more character.

travisb · 28 January 2023, 01:55 AM

I think it would be a nice addition. What color are you looking at?

My advice, try one on and see if you like it.

Can’t be had without the cyclops or the polished bracelet though…

I love my Coral Red OP41, it provides contrast to my BLRO and black Daytona. If your proposed OP is any color other than black it will complement your other two, a black dial would be too similar.

Jackie Daytona · 28 January 2023, 03:18 AM

I think it would go perfect in the collection and you could choose whatever dial you fancy to add some further variety to it all

GolfJunkie · 28 January 2023, 03:32 AM

I have all 3 of these watches. They can absolutely all be part of a collection. They’re all unique and different in their own way. I love the simplicity of the OP 41 and much prefer the visual aesthetics vs. the DJ41. I feel like the smooth bezel on the DJ is bloated and looks odd. I like the thinner, more rounded bezel of the OP.

I’ll post some pics later today.

yes, I decide based on the bracelets tbh lol

Lightsped · 28 January 2023, 03:44 AM

Yes, 100%. The OP41 will compliment any Rolex watch. The OP41 is a great under the radar watch that has a very simple/modern feel to it. Has the same movement and quality as any other Rolex.

Harry-57 · 28 January 2023, 04:03 AM

Nothing makes sense in a community of Rolex fanatics. Just buy what you like and enjoy the hell out of it.

tifosi · 28 January 2023, 04:15 AM

I'd say depends on dial color. Also depends on which Sub you have IMO.

Tallbark · 28 January 2023, 04:32 AM

Thank you all. Considering the silver dial…

Big Sexy · 28 January 2023, 04:41 AM

I think its fine. Personally id look at an explorer 1 but thats just me.

Vigilante24 · 28 January 2023, 05:03 AM

Yeah I think an op41 would be a good addition. I would get the op41 for the pop of color, but since you are considering silver dial, DJ41 might be a good choice too. Good luck!

brandrea · 28 January 2023, 07:23 AM

I think it’d be a great add

Hulkhunter · 28 January 2023, 07:55 AM

I have a green dial OP41 as well as the other watches you have and is enjoy it. It’s a fun watch. The green is subtle but pops in the right lighting.

RogerOP · 28 January 2023, 08:06 AM

A watch is a watch!

Go try it, if you like it…buy. If not, no buy.

I think it would go fine, but if I was in your situation, I'd personally be thinking about a DJ with a white dial, as I think it would be a solid compliment and offer something very different.

The 114300 with a white dial would also be a solid addition, but the current price of it is a problem.

But as it's your watch, you should go for what you like the most.

TimeAZ · 28 January 2023, 09:05 AM

Go for it. Get the silver dial. Very beautiful

Stephanos · 28 January 2023, 09:17 AM

There's definitely room for an OP in your collection, however, I would go with the 36mm case. I realise that I say that without knowing your wrist size, but a 36mm oyster case feels "just right" and I think it would complement your collection nicely.
