Interesting. The WG is a fail.

To be honest neither the LV or LB look nice really. There is nothing that just goes WOW at all about them.

It's hard to take someone reviewing a Rolex seriously when they are wearing an Apple watch in the video SHM

My God the WG sub is awful. Wow, surprised how bad that looks. They really should have gone with a blue dial on that one.

124060 is the clear winner for me.

I wonder what thought processes went through the design and executive team who approved the changes. And the specific shade of Blue.
The Kermit is an interesting shade but having seen the price on the WG... doesn't appeal either. |

Is it really??? I have no clue on fashion. I'm sort of the exact opposite of metro sexual. I just got off the treadmill in my sweat shorts and $15 t-shirt LOL. But I WAS wearing my SD43!!!!

LV is nice enough but wow is it flat compared to the Hulk. Nothing really interesting about it at all. Honestly the black sub is the best of the new releases. At least it remains cohesive and universal.

I can’t really tell if then LV is a new bezel from the hulk. It looks almost identical to a hulk in shade
If it were a rich forest green like the promo photos showed, I would be all in. I’m not if it’s just a black sub with a hulk green bezel |

I was really hoping for a darker green in light but it looks identical. |

Looks much better when it doesn’t have bright lights right above it imo.

Lighting seems to have a huge effect on the look of this watch. Here is a screen grab from the video and this watch looks terrific. Really looking foward to some incoming threads on TRF to see how this watch looks in the real world.

Don't know what people find so "awful" about them, really. Both the blue and the green look quite ok to me, though personally I still prefer the black no-date.

Just like the Hulk, photos likely don’t offer an accurate representation.

I think the 126619 is smoking! Anything "out of the blue" takes a bit getting used to, but the blue bezel will grow on people and it will become hot in no time. Mark my words!

Just from the pics alone, its just okay. Of course in person will give a better perspective. I still have this feeling it will still just be okay in person as well.

Blue bezel and black bezel is the only colors Rolex got right. The milky green does look a lot worse with a black face than sunburst green. You can play with the lights all you want but it will look washed out in certain light sources just like the LVC. No use trying to figure this out or looking past it as we have had a decade of the actual green ceramic bezel.

We go through this every year. Initial images come out and everyone is saying what a disaster it is. Then six months later when people are actually seeing them and wearing them, they're suddenly really hot.

Lol. The blue bezel WG version is the one I like most of all the new releases. I mean I prefer the smurf to it but I don't dislike this new combo at all.
