I have the same in black. The OP 41 is pure, utter perfection. I hear people call it an 'entry level' Rolex, yet I consider it the best. This design will never age.
Tell you what John, but if I could only afford one Rolex then this would be it mission accomplished. Congratulations on getting this beautiful piece Sir it is just stunningly clean and simple lines that all meld together seamlessly in a classic fashion. Totally agree with you on the presentation packaging , but on the other hand they could package this inside an old smelly sock and I would not give it a second thought LOL 😂👍 Tam.
Thank you for watching Tam. Glad you enjoyed it. Of all the watches I have owned; this is my favourite of them all. I am just looking forward to the two extra links arriving from my Rolex AD; to get the looser fit I prefer. Wear your pieces in good health. Regards.
I love the blue dial and the finish looks excellent as you'd expect at the price. I think Rolex should provide extra links free of charge though. The only couple of things are that the coronet on the dial and the crown look a little small on the larger case, and although 21mm looks great, it is a pain for alternative straps.
Thank you for watching. Agreed, it would nice if Rolex would provide the links free of charge; but they are costing me 60 Euro each. When I bought my Tudor Black Bay I needed one link added; and the AD ordered it from Tudor then posted it to me free which was good. Regards.
I watched your reviews and finally decided to get this OP41 in this colour you have. This is stunning and I’m so happy I have got it on my wrist now. Very grateful to your informative review. I agreed with you, this is the best watch for everyday use.
Thank you for watching Ian. Glad you enjoyed it. Congratulations. Excellent choice. Wear yours in good health. I am still delighted with mine, it is the only watch I own. Regards, #WR4K
Check out my Pagani Design reviews. They are excellent quality/value watches for under 100 USD. There is an AliExpress sale on the 28th March, so it is worth waiting until then to get the best price. Regards.
@@Luceked The PD-1661 is an excellent choice for a first mechanical piece under 100 USD. I have reviewed several versions of it; and the latest 2021 versions have improved bezel action. Check out my PD-1661 Cermit review as an example of the latest version. (See link below). They have now removed "Explorer" from the dial so they look cleaner. Regards. th-cam.com/video/HpisOton1Yc/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=WatchReviews4K I can highly recommend this seller; but wait until the sale on the 28th March as the prices will be discounted. www.aliexpress.com/item/1005001634750731.html?spm=2114.13010708.0.0.30954c4dWElJZ4
Hi John, thanks for another excellent in-depth review, I have also picked up this piece recently with the black dial and find it’s simplistic charms growing on me more and more each day.
Thank you for watching Andrew. Glad you enjoyed it. Congratulations. Excellent choice. The black dial version is also lovely. Wear yours in good health. Regards.
Great review, you don't mention rotor noise that other reviewers have. Not present on your watch? I'd like to know how much Rolex charge you for each extra bracelet link.
Thank you for watching Andrew. The links are 60 Euro each. The 3230 rotor isn't noticeably more noisy than the 3130 on wrist. If one holds it to ones ear the 3230 rotor sounds louder than the 3130. I would describe it as similar to the difference between an ETA 2824-2 and Miyota 9015; if you are familiar with those. Regards.
Very beautiful and could definitely be a one watch collection. Looks way nicer than a sub. Is it $8,300 nice I’m not sure. I think I could find a beautiful one watch collection for a fraction of the cost but if I had plenty of money I would consider it, but I would want a glide clasp. Maybe Rolex can send you an extra link for $500.
Thank you for watching. Glad you enjoyed it. I am completely satisfied with it as a one and only watch. The negative of this is it has killed off my interest in other watches. There simply isn't any other watch I fancy owning, as this meets my needs perfectly. Regards.
A very informative video which I enjoyed because you talked about a lot of things l was not aware of with my 41mm. I have the silver dial 41 mm which l absolutely adore and like you l have down scaled my watch collection as for me nothing come close to it for the price.
Great review, John, this is truly a wonderful piece... definitely a major improvement from its 39mm predecessor! Congratulations on your purchase. A watch worth having. Thanks for sharing. Regards
Thank you for watching mario. Glad you enjoyed it. I had considered the 39 with black dial previously. However I am now glad I didn't purchase it; as the sunburst blue dial, and larger case of this 41 is better looking. I love the way the dial changes colour in the light. Regards.
Thank you for watching Yannick. Only the Black Bay 41; which is more expensive than San Martin. See my review below. Regards, #WR4K th-cam.com/video/YXcomwaQNNw/w-d-xo.html
Thank you for watching Thomas. Yes, it is a 100 UV LED torch. See link below. Regards. www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B06XRGZTMR/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
the clasp should have a safety catch, very poor that it doesnt at this price point. It will come apart much more easier without it, and it should allow for 8" wrist!
Thank you for watching. They are currently making a 39mm Aqua-Terra homage which will be released soon. Then after they are planning on making a 40mm Explorer homage. Regards.
Thank you for watching Steven. Glad you enjoyed it. I am really pleased with it. I am looking forward to the 2 links arriving from my Rolex AD soon to get the fit correct. Wear your pieces in good health. Regards.

What an excellent review. Waiting for my OP 41mm in blue like yours. Watching your review has confirmed that I have made the right colour choice.👌🏻

If you buy from the AD and need an extra link, they charge about $65/link.

Is it possible to buy aditional links for the bracelet?
Thank you for watching lucek. Yes, I have ordered two links from my Rolex AD. They will post them to me when they arrive from Switzerland. Regards.
Keep up the good work. Regards, Giorgia Mondani.
Thank you for watching Giorgia. Glad you enjoyed it. Regards.
Do you have any suggestions of an OP41 homage with the build quality of san martin? I can't seem to find one that offers flat sapphire and goes 41mm
Thank you for watching Yannick. Only the Black Bay 41; which is more expensive than San Martin. See my review below. Regards, #WR4K

Great review and a great watch 👍🏻 I got the silver sunburst dial one and am pretty chuffed by it 😀
Thank you for watching Jari. Congratulations. Excellent choice. Wear yours in good health. Regards, #WR4K
I have 18.5cm wrists and it fits on the middle anchor point. They come from Rolex set at the smallest anchor point.
Literally perfection
Great review!
Hi John , is that a UV torch?
Thank you for watching Thomas. Yes, it is a 100 UV LED torch. See link below. Regards.

Thank you for watching. Regards.
Yeah get a Tudor for half the price with a 70hr power reserve, long warranty and a fliplock safety catch. Rolex are soooo overpriced
@@pureblood8307 Thank you for watching Martin. Check out my Tudor Black Bay review. It may interest you. Regards.
The clasp is very secure. Similar to what you get on a date just or day date. No worries it will come undone.
Nice watch, but way overpriced!
Thank you for watching Erik. Regards.
How much is this Rolex 41 cost?
Thank you for watching Glazel. 5,650 Euro. Regards, #WR4K
Great review as always. However the only negative is the Blue Dial uses a duller blue than what they use on the Datejust. Looks a bit dull and boring.
Thank you for watching Ivan. Regards, #WR4K
Awesome video !
Thank you for watching. Glad you enjoyed it. Regards, #WR4K
when is pagani going to make one of these!!!

Fantastic review John.
The OP41 is a stunning time piece.
Absolutely love it.

Thank you for watching Steven. Glad you enjoyed it. I am really pleased with it. I am looking forward to the 2 links arriving from my Rolex AD soon to get the fit correct. Wear your pieces in good health. Regards.
After owning the silver dial with yellow indices I can say I prefer this watch over any others in my collection.
