Maybe it's all in my head, but I prefer to wear a watch that isn't as easily identified as a Rolex.

Also, love the size of the 39mm. I tried on a 36 and 40 but my wrist size prefers a watch in between those sizes.

Would I be crazy to make this switch?

No you wouldn't be crazy. The Rolex Submariner is the single most recognisable watch on the planet, whereas the OP39 is relatively anonymous, and far less common. Plus you can wear the OP with anything up to and including a suit, whereas the Sub is no good if you're wanting to dress up smartly, and not look like a 007 wannabe.

Ditch the Sub and go for the OP.
