Enamored by the OP41 colors

Haven't had a chance to see them at the AD yet (are they even there?!), but I'm still blown away the pictures and colors that I'm seeing online.

Been thinking about getting a his and hers in match colors; wife and I both love the Tiffany blue but the yellow is crazy as well.

Yes, a bit out of the ordinary - but who doesn't need some color in their life? Guess we'll see what happens when I finally do make it to the AD.

(Not my pics below - just a few off the web that made me say "ooh!").

Agreed! Would love to surprise the mrs with a Tiffany blue one. The only part not to my taste on the OP is the bezel. Fluted would be fantastic. But I guess that just not an OP then. noDatejust? :)

There used to be OP’s with fluted bezel at least on the 36mm size, check the 116034 (examples
below)

Not sure if I like the colors or not. I like them better now than when I first saw them. Can't wait to see them in person - and better yet see them as a set - which I am not sure will ever happen!

Most of the colors look very different in person and depending on the light.

I would highly suggest trying to see the colors in person before deciding

Heh, that's my least-favourite (or maybe the yellow). But I quite like all the others. Which just shows that there's something for everyone here.

My only complaints are the removal of the red grape colour (which I've come very close to buying) and the jump in size. Going all the way up to an actual 41mm puts it on the large size for my slim wrist, while I'd consider 36mm too small. If these were still 39mm, I'd seriously be considering a purchase, though.

The yellow reminds me of the Omega Speedmaster Michael Schumacher edition.

The light blue is very nice. But not for me. Unless the Mrs. wants one.

I love the colours but I’m not keen on the black coloured font...it kinda looks cheap.

Yellow reminds me of the breitling they used to make (or still do). Personally not a fan of any the turquoise probably the best. Looks a bit or a rip off of the platinum dial though. Not keen on the double hour baton markers either don’t understand that bit. Guess they’d be nice as part of a collection I think it would wear thin as one watch. Then again I have a 15/20 watch collection of black, white and champagne dials lol.

I tried to suggest a his and hers turquoise combo, but was shot down. My wife is not at all interested in watches! I think I’ll listen to her. ;-)

I love ‘em & am anxious to see one in person! I kinda chuckle though, since so many bashed the double batons on the previous iteration of the 36. Lots of love now it seems...

i'm a big fan of colored dials ..

the yellow reminds me of the Breitling Avenger 2 (in cobra yellow).

my collection already has white, orange, yellow, and blue -- so i think i'm going to check out the red dialed one -- if its love at first sight then i'll pick it up

Gonna pick up the turquoise and yellow; but think the word is enameled not enamored.

I’m a fan too. The turquoise is the so similar to the color scheme decor of my beach getaway so I’m tempted to buy it as a reminder of it when not there.

Yes, I have enough conservative colours in my collection as it is. The last thing I want is another black, white or silver dial. I could use something fresh, fun and cheerful. Turquoise, yellow and green OP41s are on my radar. New Bluesy too.

I think the yellow is intriguing! Gives me a nice 1970 vibe. And as alphadweller said, I need something fun

Definitely enjoy the new OP colors, considering the coral red or yellow for myself.

Haven't seen these in person yet but I'll sure to drop by soon.

Anyone has a size comparison between the "old" 39 and the 41?

The DJ41 is just a bit off for me... wonder if they gave the OP the same case.
