Apparently they could be bringing out a model called ‘The Safe Dweller’.

I have to agree with this. Wasn’t the YM2 released only 10 years ago?

Or one that tracks grey market prices for Rolex

Yeah I’d love to see a 40-41mm white gold world time on a jubilee bracelet

I'd like to see a new model Air-King, something more like they did from decades ago, with less green, less double digit numbers all around the dial, more old school classic. But that's just me.

Not sure what you mean by old reputation.
My guess is in 20 years from now if they just upgrade movements, add new dial/bezel colors and minor tweaks to the cases, their status will be the same as is today.

Rolex will do the usual, IE the least amount of work they can get away with.

Ceramic bezel
New dial colour
New bezel colour
A line of red text
Increase case size to what it should have been then claim an extra 2mm.

The wait list will increase as punters line up to get the new "HOT" investment pieces, and grays will rub their hands together as punters pay well over the odds to jump the wait list.


Rolex watch designer possibly the easiest job on the planet.

I have heard from a good source they are working on the “Wishmaster”. It’s dropping February 30th.

Probably something like this or an updated version of it.

Titanium, quartz, more functions than you can count of all fingers and toes.

Rolex has models designed for things on earth (mountains, caves, oceans, sky), but not yet for space. So, how about the Rolex Stargazer - tough as nails stainless steel or titanium, 39 or 40 mm, black or midnight blue dial, three hander with moon phase and selectable star chart complications - all for $10K msrp! (ha).

Better hurry before Omega beats them to it (again)!

What about the Rolex Space Dweller from the 1960’s - have you forgotten about that or just didn’t know about it?

Space Dweller dial can be inverse of deep sea james cameron.

Blue will be on the bottom and its goes black.

titanium can be very good.

Chronograph for sure but with its bezel maybe it can be lock like the new ugly tudor P model something.

I am sure i am not the only one but we got bored we want some innovation.
