OP39 White dial is more Opalesque in the sun

Has anyone looked at their OP39 white in the sun. The dial is mesmerizing. I see reds and blues and greens, yellows and purples. It reminds me of an opal. Unfortunately, my camera cant pick it up but my eyes sure do.

Hopefully I am going to try one on in the flesh tomorrow. I'm just a little concerned about the lack of adjustment in the bracelet. I'm hoping to persuade the AD to get an easylink for me. Fingers crossed eh?

I had the same concern but I threw a half link on it that I had lying around because my wrist seems to be right in-between the adjustment points in the clasp and now it fits perfect. Also, notice the position of the links so that they bend exactly at the end of the clasp. This totally helps with comfort on the wrist. Dont worry about where the outer clasp is positioned on your wrist, its where the inner clasp blades are positioned that matter.

Yes, that dial is very nice. It has texture and a bit of color, to me it gives a feel of patina.

I think it’s one of those you have to see in person to appreciate. I see pictures on here and Instagram and although some great shots, nothing captures it like the eye does. I think it’s a great watch and checks a lot of boxes for a versatile daily wear.

I agree with you 100% Jonathan.
