Baselworld 2019 releases on display in Sydney

J. Farren Price in Sydney currently has an exhibition displaying the Baselworld 2019 collection until 23 June. These are just the display models of the watches, without the movement inside.

I know there is the current shortage, so it will be nigh on impossible to get these models, but for those interested in seeing what they look like in the flesh, you should drop by to take a look if you're in Sydney.

I've taken a photo of the TT SD43, YM42 WG, the WG GMT with meteorite dial, BLNR with Jubilee and RG Daytona. Apologies for the poor quality of the photo from my phone camera.

I was underwhelmed by Rolex's releases at this year's Baselworld and my opinion hasn't changed since seeing these new sports watch models on display. I only really like the WG YM42.

These “new release” days seem kind of pointless don’t they?

I tried on the BLRO last year and then got told that I had no hope of purchasing one

At least you get to see them in an AD display. I would like to see what the meteorite dial looks like

These are the special movement free models?

The ones with the movements are unobtainable.

The Rolex new releases are on trip around the globe.
I have seen and tried on some of the sportmodel dummies at the local AD novelties event in Amsterdam past month.
Did not trigger me to get on a list for one of the new releases.
