I know it's the year of Sub but wouldn't an SS oyster GMT be sweet

Was looking at Rolex website as I am looking for something to potentially replace or add to my SD4K as daily SS Rolex.

Isn't it time to bring back a SS GMT LN or a Coke with Oyster bracelet?


Don't know what I expect as answer to this, just wanted to share my thoughts. Anyone else having the same wishes?

That ship has sadly sailed. GMTs on ss will now be jubilee'd up while if you want oyster that is a pm reference, it's how Rolex will make the distinction.
I expect the LN to return, it sold very well, it's a matter of time and maybe next month is the time.

Has Rolex EVER been known to bring back verbatim a discontinued model? Are you thinking slimmer lugs?

If we would all like with our wallet and not buy the Jubilee model they would change it, but that will never happen.

Well yes, the BLRO was reissued just as it was, first in unobtainable whit gold then ss. But the super jubilee is now a GMT design trait for ss.

There is already an SS Oyster GMT...it's called an Explorer II!

All kidding aside, I am kicking myself for selling my 116710LN last year. It was a perfect daily. Would love a shot at another one!

You can always go for a used Gmtll LN. Expll is a great one as well.

I'd love a new GMT with oyster. But even if newly released it won't matter. I've been trying to get a BLNR since before it was updated, granted with just one prior SS purchase.
