I haven’t seen very much about a full gold Jubilee GMT. They’ve done it in the past, I don’t know why they wouldn’t bring it back. Would be a huge seller I think for people who are in the market for PM.
The most obvious reason, in my opinion, is scalability. In the five-digit days, didn’t other models (DJ/DD 36) come with an all-YG Jubilee I’m the right size as an option?” So they were already available and being produced. Not so today with anything RG.

Good question but unfortunately I don't have an equally good answer, sorry.

Monochrome imagined it with a fully brushed bracelet and lugs, a thinner bezel insert (less polished surface), thinner case and totally amagnetic. How much more utilitarian could it be? :-)

There is a strong probability Coke coming next year with the 41mm case since it will be the 40th year anniversary of the GMT II, the first appearance of the Coke bezel.

Manufacturing wise, it doesn’t make sense o have separate case from Sub line, especially when the 41mm case is appreciated and favored to 40mm by many. A thinner case back Sub 41 cased GMT would be perfect!

There are 3 bezel colors on Sub (LN, LV, LB)
There are 3 bezel colors on GMT (BLNR, BLRO, CHNR)

Revival of LNRO may force the BLRO to go hiatus again since BLRO is their first GMT color and they wouldn’t want it to be overshadowed by the new kid on the block, LNRO.
