Glad it's that way as it makes the watch still relatively obtainable.

The Oyster Perpetual 39 white, 114300. Never expect it to be this good if a watch. I have experienced the explorer 214270, the DJ41 and a few others. This watch really surprised me.

I prefer the 36mm OP, but otherwise completely agree. Absolutely beautiful, probably some of the strongest Rolex watches

gmougo · 23 July 2020, 01:57 PM

I 100% agree with you. The simplicity is what makes it, in my opinion, so perfect. Such a beautiful watch in every way.

I regret selling mine, simplicity at it's best. Most comfortable Rolex I've worn.

GolfJunkie · 23 July 2020, 02:14 PM

I love this watch and want to add one to my collection really bad

shaunylw · 23 July 2020, 02:28 PM

If it was on a flip lock bracelet with the ez link, i would probably buy one and wear it daily.

It's James Bond's fault. Ian Fleming rocked the simple (either explorer I, OP, or DJ, I forget but similar profile) and that was the "Rolex" rolex. Then, Bond decides to opt for the flashier sub and the "sports" pieces get all the attention.

kidding

Ihatecheese · 23 July 2020, 05:21 PM

I'm glad you like it!

The whole James bond sub thing doesn't resonate now to many under about 40. He's not that aspirational to anyone these days!

Very nice.

One of the most balanced and wonderfully proportioned references. And at 39mm a great easy size.

Andad · 23 July 2020, 06:51 PM

Great pix.

I looks as if the dial has a non-reflective coating.

Tuma · 23 July 2020, 06:58 PM

My AD has mentioned that Rolex will be doing something with the OP range in the September announcement... If this is true what could it possibly be?

Love this one, well done!

abozz · 23 July 2020, 07:35 PM

That model have a lot of appreciation in this forum, because is a BEAUTY!

I bought my wife the 34mm white dual op last week, beautiful watch little jealous as my blnr is away for service at the moment.

GT23 · 23 July 2020, 08:27 PM

Fully agree with OP. It’s clean, crisp and classy. My fav all-occasion watch.

Yess · 23 July 2020, 08:38 PM

"Relatively obtainable".
The OP is fast becoming one of the more tricky Rolex watches to obtain.
The average punter wants the OP more than a Sub. It's insta and WIS people who want the Sub (Hulk, etc).

chazadams · 23 July 2020, 08:40 PM

Words like silky, smooth, and elegant come to mind with this watch

So stoked you are enjoying sir

brandrea · 23 July 2020, 08:43 PM

Very nice, less is more

Harry-57 · 23 July 2020, 08:48 PM

My wife got a 36 Grape this year. It's elegant simplicity is remarkable. A case of less being more if you get the design right.

1William · 23 July 2020, 09:25 PM

Nice watch.

Gerry62 · 23 July 2020, 09:30 PM

Looks great !

Marcjvr · 23 July 2020, 09:32 PM

I am excited to see what Rolex does with the OP lineup in September

You're actually right. It fits as an all-occasion watch IMO.

I think it's one of the nicer recent Rolex offerings.

DC116710LN · 23 July 2020, 10:49 PM

I love it - I'm waiting on the 34mm version myself

rmlovett1 · 23 July 2020, 10:53 PM

My thoughts as well! It’s a great watch! Better than expected from my experience.

That’s exactly what I’ve heard from my local AD.

Frank McKay · 23 July 2020, 10:57 PM

The brushed bracelet finish is spectacular. One of the reasons I love my Sub so much is the brushed bracelet. OP39 is a beauty.

Jackie Daytona · 23 July 2020, 11:09 PM

It’s a beautiful watch. Couldn’t agree more, the simplicity of design it just fits together and flows so well.
