New OP sizes and colors

I'm confused here. I've seen some people say the red and tiffany blue are only available in the 36 but then I go on the rolex website and they are in the 41 size. So anyone know for sure?

Don't assume for one moment that TRF members know what they are talking about.

I'm personally not a fan of the new OP size and color myself, but that one would be ideal for a lady for sure.

My problem with these new bright colors, is will they age well...Sure some think they are cool now, but what about 20 years down the road? I prefer the white/black/silver dials, but in 36 to 39. 41mm for this style is just too far.

The Stella dials of old are very cool IMO, and command a premium.

Anything is cool, as long as you have the confidence to pull it off!

The OP dial variations will go down well. Some of the colours aren't timeless classics. Turquoise, green, red will go down a hit. It great option instead of the standard, DJ on a jubilee. I bet more younger women will wear these OPs.

Do you know if they changed the sizing of the case/lugs for the OP36? I can't tell. I'm wondering if it fits larger or smaller.

I would say Silver as well. It's a good alternative for a DJ41. I think all of the colors will be a hit actually for years to come

Well I don't agree and it's not about my confidence, but I tend to like conservative style and color watches.
