Overwrite style properties on select in OpenLayers

I want to reuse my basic style function to create an select style by overwriting some of the properties. This approach is working for fill/stroke colors of linestrings, polygons and texts, but not for images (a circle in my case). I don't want to create a new image since other properties should be retained.

var selectStyleFunction = function(feature, resolution) {
  var style = styleFunction(feature, resolution)[0];
  style.getImage().getFill().setColor("magenta");

  console.log(style.getImage().getFill().getColor());

  return [style];
};

In this fiddle you can see, that the above code doesn't change the feature style on selection although the log output is correct.

Is there any way to overwrite this property?

I found an answer to my question in the api dokumentation of openlayers. It was too obvious to find it in the first place.

https://openlayers.org/en/latest/apidoc/ol.style.Style.html

ol.style.Style
Container for vector feature rendering styles. Any changes made to the style or its children through set*() methods will not take effect until the feature or layer that uses the style is re-rendered.

So rendering is not triggered by the setters.
