ROLEX 3235 movement on Sub

Will (When will) Rolex put a 3235 movement in the submariner?
It had been installed in Seadweller.

Would say it's possible next year, it is certainly on its way
The GMT BLRO has the new movement, no reason for the sub not to get it.

As said above , doesn't mean it will be available.

I’m guessing it won’t be announced and simply the dial change will happen in secrecy...

Possibly next year and I wouldnt be suprised if Rolex shaves those fat lugs of the ceramic Sub.

True dat!
I think that’s the way it’s going - back to the good old days when men didn’t feel the need to compete with women (Watch size), as exemplified by the new DJ’s and SD.
Sure some just like a bigger watchhead, and you like what you like, but I’ve seen lugs overhanging the wrist far too many times. But even in these cases, if that’s your look - do it.

Would be my dream watch, especially if they would try to do a bit of a Homage to the 5512's and offer the ND Sub with a domed sapphire and the other upgrades you eluded too, plus a matte finish dial. Would be the ultimate tool / beater watch for me!

I think you guys are overestimating Rolex...

I do not think it would be announced, just to be on the look out.
