I do not want to see anything worn by John Goodman in a bikini. At all.

I do not want to see them add a ceramic bezel to the Explorer II. It just doesn’t make sense for that watch.

My credit card and sanity do not want to see anything that I like (and won’t be able to get until I have waited a few years)!

i will be disappointed in any new SS offering. At this point i think just based on demand PM needs to be the focus. No point in a SS watch if most who want it can't get it anyway. With a PM watch if its nice and you want it, you most likely can.

SS releases are becoming more and more of an abstract concept and not because i think they are limiting them artificially just that the demand is way way too high. Might as well cut some demand naturally and move into the PM space. Demand is good so i agree with that, but its bordering on excessive.

I hope that Rolex doesn't do the ceramic bezel on gold bracelet Daytonas for at least one more year, cos I hope to get one this year!

Rolex already had the pinkish ceramic bezel figured out on the the BLRO...

I think a redish bezel on a Sub (keep the black dial) would be amazing.

More polished lug tops on SS models, more precious metal sports watches, any "new" model with an old movement

Yes the WG owners have been put thru the mill recently, think the Sub guys might also be bracing themselves but don't see the SS Sub or DD happening.

I think there was a Rolex Space Master once. Only sold in small numbers in Japan IIRC. I guess you could say Rolex list the space race to Omega.

I am considering a Platinum DD. The suggestion that Rolex would offer a SS DD has me re thinking this acquisition.

Howdy,

Agreed! I would rather see them continue to produce their current lineup and add more new offerings. People can't get current watches as is.

Take care,

Anything with diamonds (other than ladies watches) and any PM sports model. In my perfect world you could only get full PM on the Daydate and Cellini ranges. Sports models and Datejusts would only be stainless or TT.

I showed the pink sub to Mrs Fett, she says it's pretty. Why not make it, massive hit with the ladies I would think.
Speculation about a DD SS is going to go on forever as it will never happen.
