I like the size of the 41 and like the new dials; want 1 or 2. Nice move, Rolex.

Nice shot of the red. And I get your concern about versatility. Having said that, I do feel if you want your watch to pop, go yellow.

My AD said they were very surprised by the strong demand for OP41 in tiffany blue. It was 2nd most requested after the Kermit.

They do expect to get many more OP than Sub so the wait should not be that long though.

The black is the only one out I'd own. Like the double batons, the champagne (OK Silver) looks dated (as in 80s) out of the box, the bold colors are frightful, the size I'll have to reserve an opinion on until I have one on my wrist but I'm concerned it will run too large for me. The new movement (3230) is great with the extra reserve however I'm concerned about it as well. I don't like the black enough to own one so it's a no go for me.

Which colors in your opinion? Besides the red, yellow, and tiffany blue. Green?

I was very excited about this new release. I had the chance to try on the bright blue OP41 at the AD when picking up my Bluesy. I was actually interested in other colours (green, turquoise, yellow) but they didn't have them.

The watch itself (dial, case, bracelet) is fine but felt a bit underwhelming, kind of generic. The colour of the dial wasn't for me either. Under a strong light it appeared as a washed out denim blue. I really didn't feel like spending almost six grand on one (retail price 5,600 euros where I live). I guess it would have felt like a bargain had I liked it enough.

However, I would still want to see it in other colours, perhaps they will change my perception of the piece. But so far it's meh.

I saw Red, Green and Silver in person.

Red was very red, really stands out. When I sent a picture to my wife her response was 'yuck'. She didn't think the green one looks so bad, but said it looked a bit cheap. We both like the silver the best.

The SA said red isn't very popular. Lots of people looking for an OP, but most in Japan want Black or Silver.
