Rolex teaser update

[bravetony]

Gold?

[GB-man]

Looks like a 47mm titanium pilots watch with minute repeater to me. Book it.

[BobDyl]

I highly doubt this will happen but I would be all over a 38 or 39mm Datejust or Day Date. The DJ41 and DD40 are too large and the 36mm are too small (but look great in photos). 7" wrist and I feel Rolex had completely missed the sweet spot on both lines.

Here we go again! What have we now?

[GoingPlaces]

It’s more than one watch most likely. Perhaps a SkyD on OF?

Fluted bezel with Merc hands, twinlock and lumed indices - a bit baffled quite honestly.

Me as well....and nobody is really discussing this. Looks like a divers dial on a Day Date which is really strange. I'd guess a TOG if not for it looking to be solid YG. My guess is a brand new model based on one of their recent patent filings

[SpeakWithMichael]

We ought to have a "NO TEASERS" sticky. Not that that would do anything, really.

Exactly. The 5 minute markers have circular lume plots! But a TOG has a rotating bezel, and didn’t have Merc hands!

Hoping for a Calendar Day-Date!

IIRC, Rolex patented the movement some years ago.

What's a calendar DD?

What the hell is this??

[Hub6152]

I’d think it was an April fools joke if it wasn’t only the 18th March!!

[Ravager135]

I can't imagine them re-tweaking the Datejust so soon after bringing all the models in line with one another and releasing the Jubilee bracelet on 41mm stainless steel models. My best guess is a re-imagining of something we already know that will straddle the dress/sport aesthetic and maybe fill a gap for the sport model shortage.

I just noted on their IG video it does say 2019 Watches - plural. I think the video is definitely a composite of more than one model (which is obvious I suppose).

Others had noted the same when this post went up initially. I agree, we're seeing shots of different watches and some are assuming they're the same piece. I believe there's a new DJ variant, and a Sports (Sub / or Milgauss perhaps) on the way. Only a few days left to wait!

Will probably have the blue hand like the YM came out with instead of the red from the 36mm turn-o-graph

would be nice!

If it was a turn-o-graph the fluted bezel would have printed markers on it.

[JerseyGuy]

Maybe a Gold Explorer 1 ?

[ras47]

Judging by the triangle marker at the 12:00 position I'd say it's either an Explorer II, Sub, GMT, or SkyDweller.

i think you are all thinking too much.
then what, new 2019 ‘watch’?
and just have 1 new watch (whether it’s just tweaks or a new model etc)...
now that sounds really weird wouldn’t it?

[5thAveRolexMan]

...a new model, The City-Dweller!

[ras47]

Broadly speaking there are three possibilities:

1. Updates to existing models.
2. New model.
3. Both!

Updates could be as benign as new movements in those currently sporting the 3185 movement, or they could be as big as changing dial/case sizes and material. I don't see a new model being introduced as Rolex can't even come close to satisfying demand for the models they're producing now.

[blada4life]

I’m expecting a new DD with the skyD bezel function to change date, etc

My TT skyD has same 2 dots the the YG crown.

I’m the new teaser if you look at the profile shot you can see the cyclops.

[zjd168]

seems like two watches, and the 2nd one 36 DD with the new movement?

And the 1st one I still think and hope is a Sub.

What I meant was that this particular video isn’t focussed on one watch only which is what some of us mistakenly thought.

[envuks]

The big announcement is that crowns will all align vertically as need in the teaser. No new watches this year.

[SkeezerMcDark]

I can’t believe you guys aren’t seeing it... it’s OBVIOUSLY a space meteorite/titanium alloy 48mm SUB Date chronograph with fluted bezel, redesigned lugs, uranium isotope lume, with a regatta timer thrown in for good measure, and it will be on an OusterFlex band.

Take that to the bank. I heard it from my AD.

JK. It’s anybody’s guess at this point what the new models will be. Only a few more days to wait!

36mm DJ has come in 18K YG for many years.

I agree, I'm 100% positive it's a Rolex for sure.
