Hey Duncan I just got to work I'm going to watch this later but just wanted to leave a comment

Im ready! ;)

Wow that's a coup. Tried to order one of these 41mm for my 60th, was laughed at by the AD waited 18 months then taken off the list. Sore point + Best wishes AVPG.

Thanks for the shout out I will get your watch back into the mail to you this week I just been slacking I really like that especially with the green dial in the double indices at 3 6 9 I really prefer a fluted bezel though

Hey man still at work lol hopefully I'll be able to get out of here shortly it's almost 3 here in the states

This "trigger feel"/golve's cut finger is really ready to hit on this green dial, as most Brits would, especially when there are gilt hands/markers, but silver makes it "sporty", so may be... Cheers Duncan, great review, on a Classic (capital "C" please) watch. I'd get a light colour dial, won't change much, just the mood (sunny makes it funny mate!). Be well, all the best. PS Nice baseline at outro!

bass in your face - better than tiffany blue in your face haahaha thanks Stav 😎😎

I'm glad Rolex gave new life to the formerly neglected OP line. That shade of green is sublime. In terms of bezels, this one appears too wide or too angled. I used to have an Explorer (114270) and to me, that bezel was perfect. There may be some variation to slope of bezels in the OP family, I'm not certain.

Cheers THX yup the green is superb, such a small detail the shade or hue but it's so important 😎😎

Great video as always and lovely watch for sure. Always Blue for me, but might have been nice if the blue was matt like the green. Stunning bracelet and clasp! Did you have to take any links out to fit? I was surprised how small this is out of the box. Not the only watch from Rolex/Tudor I have found this with lately. Not usual a watch fits me at the AD historically. Bigger case sizes (40/41 only just about fit a sub 7.5" wrist, but the new BB54 (37mm) would need links taken out

Simply stunning. Did you have a long wait? I put myself on 'the list' a few days ago, but I was told it could take a while and is a difficult dial combination to get hold of!

@@RA-lc5ed yup unless you can find a way to curry favour with your AD others seem to think this is standard wait time 😬😬

At retail price I would buy it tomorrow, unfortunately it’s impossible. I have to admit, to live the experience and try the feel of this watch I bought a super clone and that gave me the chance to understand that I would put £5400 for this watch but not more than that. I am anyway not a silly man and when people ask I tell them that it is a clone. In a perfect world I would reduce my collection to just two watches: my Seiko Skx009J and this one.

Hey Marco thanks bud and welcome to the channel! It's about a two year wait list if you have the patience :) which brand is your clone? and curious you mention the 009 as the prices seem to becoming more reasonable of late and i was thinking of picking one up!!

Got this a retail 6 months ago, and still have it. And that says a lot for me🙂
