I feel the same re the sports watches ( though I do wish I had kept my two GMTs from a decade+ ago) and am delighted with my OP 39 in black which I bought soon after it was released. Really good all purpose watch, simple ,attractive, great dimensions,not too bling etc
Are people just missing this?
Rolex has successfully managed to turn the entire Sports line into the same craze that was previously affecting only the Daytona, triggering massive levels of speculation, grey market, and arrogant behaviour at some of their dealers. That, in itself, woul...
Precisely why I wear my 36mm "older" DateJust. I already own it so no waiting, goes with everything from jeans/tee-shirt to my best suit. Still gets a lot of second looks
and a few compliments also. I have several watches but this is the one I wear the most, even more than my Submariner.
Nothing wrong with 36mm Rolexes
In fact the 36mm datejust and the 37mm Yachtmaster with steel and platinum are among my favourite Rolexes.
Thanks Boris
I just hope that after your lovely post this watch will still be available on the shelves.
Absolutely
I agree with you on the bezel of the Explo 1... it is a detail but it looks weird. I went with OP39 in black because of the nice size and the brushed case: I am not too keen on the shiny finish of the Datejust, but it remains a perfectly fine choice
Yes for me the DJ is perfect but a little too small on my wrist ...
And i confirm for the OP 39 ... A nice watch in a perfect size !! ...

Fantastic picture
It just goes to show how well the rounded bezel fits on that case. All of the other sections are so flat that the round bezel creates an interesting contrast that enhances the visual impact. Now, the only (very slight) knock I have on the case is that the...
I am turning 50 next January...
...so I am hoping that it will be available on shelves by then.
Don't think people are missing it, just too small
no matter how cool, these days... but I like.
OP 36mm blue dial
Shown on this forum before I first saw this combination without date two years ago online and thought that is for me with plain curved bezel without fancy accoutrements I was unlikely to use. 39mm too large for me and 3-6-9 alpha is perfect. So 17months a...
Great option, too
I saw it a few times at various AD's, and it is a very nice model. Understated, with just a bit of pop with the blue dial. Having so many models on Oyster bracelet, I am quite drawn by the new Jubilee bracelet of the DJ. I must be getting old...
Well to be honest....
Imho the new 1262xx series are more feminine now with the new lugs wich are smaller the the 1162xx. I would’nt go for it i think.
