I was curious about this and looked it up for anyone else who wants to see too: https://www.os2museum.com/wp/os2-history/os2-1-2-and-1-3/

I never used OS/2 and most of what I’ve seen were from the final versions, so I had no idea it basically looked like Windows 3.x in the earliest versions.

It's the other way around. Windows 3.x looked like OS/2 1.x
The window borders were grey rather than black. That made a huge difference in the subtleness of the contours. The resizable borders were a bit thinner, IIRC (could be the grey outlines though.

I need to play with it for a while.
