Seriously, what % of ROLEX nut jobs are on this forum ? I'm sure headquarters is aware of watch forums. But, it's probably less then 2% of the customer base that are regulars.

ROLEX does laugh at some of the stuff though if they glance through it periodically.

I wouldn't count on it. I don't think you will see a flock of Sub C owners "trading in" their watches much less for a GMTIIC Pepsi...

Interesting. . . Today's 'teaser' seems to hint at a rotating bezel. . .

I think there is a big possibility that this is SS YM2 based on the latest teaser. Aside from a rotating bezel it also has a brushed case.

Lug width and being brushed, plus bezel notching makes me think GMT over YMII. There's my guess

Sharp eye, my friend. You're correct. Look closely and you can see part of one of the bezel notches. It's a rotating bezel. PCL suggests it a GMT. Hopefully 42mm. Hopefully bi-color ceramic insert.

There has to be an 50th Daytona unveiled also. And I hope they don't change the design or remove the crown guard. Just 42mm..

YM2 has a polished case lug.

it staying at 40 is the most likely, given the recent gold ceramic daytonas.....

Rotating bezel + Brushed lugs + PCL's can only equal GMT right ? Or a new model ?

Or is this a white gold GMT with a blue bezel ? Now my imagination is getting away from me.

If it's a steel YMII, why have the brushed they lugs ?

If it's a GMT, I truly hope they don't further bloat the case. That 21 mm bracelet has me concerned, though.

Why? This is the 52nd year of production as it started in 1961.

A 42mm Sea-Dweller would be great, but not with PCLs!
