Reassign the Opportunity to an Admin, and store the original owner in a custom field. Use the custom field for your queries and such. When needed, assign the record the original owner from the custom field.

Is this possible on custom coding? ( either apex or VF)?
Suraj PSuraj P
You can always override the view action for Opportunity to a VF page that can approve or deny request to view the Opportunity. Please keep in mind, though, that users will still be able to see the opportunity in Reports, via API etc.

Hi Suraj P, your response is most helpful. Your last update I believe is the route where looking for. Do you have a link or a sample coding for this view action that I can use as a start point though? 

Thanks in advance.

Hi Suraj,

This is a good start for me! This code would hide just the page visibilty of the record but not completely removing him as the record owner right? 

 
Suraj PSuraj P
That is correct. This page would hide all the opportunity records from their respective  owners. If you only want to hide some of the opportunity records, make sure to modify  your code accordingly. As an alternative to using the apex:detail tag, you can use javascript to redirect the user to the standard Opportunity detail page, if you'd prefer that
