Yeah I love the new ones but the white OP39 was the perfect all around piece.

If it weren’t for the double batons they’d be fine, but as it stands, no bueno.

Never thought I'd think it, but Turquoise blue for me.

I think OP, Turquoise blue dial will be a top hit.

And wtf I thought the black one had a "bright black" dial (sunburst) like the blue one above but it's obviously matte. That kind of boils it down for the dark blue and the yellow one for me. Or both.

I was hoping the first pic was accurate but alas, the video confirms it's closer to a tennis grass green as opposed to a dark forest green.

I like the double markers at 3-6-9
More lume, and easier to orientate in darkness rather than just relying on the unlumed area at 12. Plus emphasing the 3-6-9 points is kind of a Rolex thing

I don’t like the double markers on the dark blue or black ones, but the red and yellow ones are ridiculous enough double markers work. My biggest peeve is that the hands have next to no lume compared to the indices. It won’t win any night readability contests despite all the lume on the dial.

Otherwise, I am smitten, I want one or two of them for sure.
