W&W Sitemap Leaked - On Reddit

I’m a Technology Executive. Looks legit to me. Fact is, Rolex and watch/jewelry manufacturers don’t spend money on information security like banks and other companies do. Not even close.

They do have rigid internal procedures in place that mostly prevent proprietary information from leaking out, no doubt, but something as silly as a vendor's website could sink the ship.

I doubt there were any reviews at all. Don’t underestimate their ability to completely mess this up and let this leak out like this.

Well imo in the leak there’s mention of a new DayDate

That would mean more than just a new dial right or is that enough to call it “new”

That’s what I wanna see. Then again I’m a PM freak lol

Folks want to believe anything. Rolex would never put secret data on a 3rd party server. Use your brain people.
I dont know, man. The new Poop master checks out.

A new dial option is probably exactly what it means.

Plus this isn't even Rolex's blunder, but W&W's. Guessing what amounts to a trade show spends essentially nothing on this. And, at the end of the day, it matters not one iota, and nothing will change. People will still buy the watches. People will still attend the shows. And a few of us will still spend endless time speculating about what will happen.

It’s real. I don’t know Jack squat about tech and can tell you it’s likely real because outside the Rolex models listed everything lines up with what is known or expected from other brands.

The 222 from VC

The Ti Odysseus from Lange

Several strap Pateks 5326g 5226g etc

Several confirmed czapeks

Nice work. The Historiques 222 is gonna sweet to see!

Nice seeing the Yachmasters as this is a watch I have a lot of interest in. The other manufacturers look like they are gonna have some great watches. Tourbillion Alpine Eagle, tons of new IWC.

How fun!

It's always something. One year someone kept playing with the web addresses/links at Rolex and came up with the webpages for the new watches that just hadn't been revealed on the site yet. They found one or two and other members here kept fiddling them until they found more.

Another year someone got ahold of some proof pages for the catalog that were likely from a dumpster behind the print shop.

I remember that with the website, haha. I was wondering if that guy would do it again this year!
