OP vs DJ41

Tried on both watches today and was surprised at how much smaller the OP felt. Who knew what a difference 2mm would make...

Everyone talks about case size and the difference in mm.

The big factor that will make all the difference, that most people don’t take in to consideration, is the lug-lug measurement.

It’s not really the 2mm case size difference that will make one seem smaller than the other.

The svelte case and Oyster bracelet on the OP39 make for a remarkably comfortable fit. The Explorer I is similar.

I loved the OP. Only got rid of it because I wanted a date function.
On the wrist I thought they wore very similarly

Isn't the DJ41 actually 39.5mm?

It's going to be hard for me to choose here, I honestly think they are almost similar.

Cheers

The dial on the DJ41 just looks huge to me.
