Yes, just landed. I never had an OP39 but I understand it shares the case with Explorer 39mm. This one does wear larger, likely because of the larger dial. While I loved the Explorer (and wish I still owned one) this does wear better on my larger wrist.

I’ve also fitted the Glidelock that I kept from my 114060, which was my plan all along. It’s absolutely perfect now.

I do wish Rolex would provide a Glidelock (possibly with a bit less adjustment range and shorter) on all their models.




The case dimensions are quite similar to the 39, as per an excellent video by a guy named Hafiz.
