Yellow is my favorite color, so naturally I chose yellow.

Out of the current crop of OP41s, given the choice, I'd do black, then blue. Both admittedly boring, but OPs are to me. I appreciate them for what they are, but not my cup of tea. I was more excited about the grey/rhodium(?) OP39 with the blue pips. That looked neat.

Green is my preferred OP, and I am not saying this because I have one listed here on TRF

Tiffany & Co. is NOT associated with the similarly colored OP!

There is a reason that Rolex featured it prominently, in all their advertisements, when they were first released. As soon as my SA showed me pics of all the colors, I knew it was the one , for me.

A little out of the ordinary are yellow, red and the Tiffany.

Which dial color do you suggest me?

Thanks to everyone who participated in the poll.

P.s.: I'll post an image with all the OP colors in case anyone wants to recommend one that isn't included in the poll.
I have a fond regard for the OP it was my first Rolex watch I bought way back in 1960s.But when these Stella colour dials came out on some models back in the 1970s they were then quite poor sellers. Today though mainly down to the hype they seem to be sort after but today hype sells watches. But with watches its all down to what colour dial the owners wants to wear.

Love the configuration of OP on oyster with smooth bezel (not fluted). They are all beautiful… my favorite would be the Turquoise one, though with my very pale skin I would go for the darker blue.
Having said that, the green is also very tempting…

I am pleased to see that the forum is consolidating my preference for the green dial.
I have twenty-three watches with a black dial, nine with a white dial, three with a blue dial, three grey, one green and one gold. It is therefore natural that I choose the green color, as well as liking the watch.

The green dial or the black dial will be a perfect choice IMO.
