Rolex doesn’t say what is discontinued. You need Togo into their Rolex configure website. If a particular watch is not there then it is discontinued.

The rose gold blue daydate is awesome!! I hope it's in a 40mm without a diamond bezel.

It’s more plausible that this new GMT is replacing the VTNR. We’ll see in a few hours

I personally don't care for any of these renders. Different angels or not, they don't look genuine. Time will tell. Basically 13 hours from now.

These are stills from a video, that might explain.

Is it just me or is Pepsi gone from the official website configure options?

Edit: never mind it was still under “bezel options” but face options only showed Batman and sprite

There's whole promo videos of everything that was in the teaser. That would take a huge amount of effort for a fake leak.

Nobody has spent a few million dollars producing a fake teaser vid. These are all real

Something feels wrong about that GMT unless there’s a historical precedent. The color scheme doesn’t make sense unless it’s titanium or something (which doesn’t seem to be the case, pun not intended). Perhaps it’s their modern take on the black bezel version.

Yes, it’s the latter - what’s wrong with that?

If I was setting things up for Rolex, I’d create a whole fake video to run on the previous day, and laugh my ass off at the hotel reading the online commentary.

It’s too ugly

Or it’s somehow special and needs to be seen live, like the tiger’s eye Yach Master. But we’ll see.

Rolex is unfortunately not immune to cost cutting. See how they removed the diver extension on the 126660. See how they are now streamlining production of bezels. The less variety in these highly produced items, the lower the costs.
I think you meant the 136660, not 126660.

And if you really think Rolex need to “cut costs” then I’d respectfully suggest that’s, at best, unlikely.

We've seen the high effort renders of catalog models be printed in years past. Not saying these aren't real, but I also wouldn't put it past people looking to grow their instagram numbers by putting these up. Its all buzz at this point. They're very convincing, but we won't know definitively until the official releases, in which case I may be wrong.

That’s subjective. I can’t say I dislike it. But then I liked the LN a lot too.
