So you wake up one day and hear the news; Rolex is going to start making watches to order. Any dial, any bezel, etc, on any watch they make. Any combination you want, they'll make.

A couple I have in mind are pretty easy, a mid-sized TT YM with the blue dial and NO DATE. Another I'd like is a TT Everrose Turnograph with a smoke gray dial with rose gold roman #'s and the second hand matching the hour and minute hands, NOT that red they use now. Maybe no date on that one either.

Then they could bring the Exp I back into production and offer it with a couple different color dials.

So............. what'll you have?

Melanotaenia · 16 August 2011, 12:17 PM

ecsub44 · 16 August 2011, 12:20 PM

Some kind of milsub thing.

Matte dial, fixed spring bars, sword hands, 60 minute markers on the bezel insert, non-gold surrounds, etc.

But I want a sapphire crystal...but domed.

That would hit the spot!

I don't need anything custom. My dream watch is a birth year (1996 for me) 16610 Submariner.

Hello Adam. Your post reminded me of myself 18 months ago, when I started with Rolex. My dream was a Submariner (something about this watch just seems to capture everyone's first love). Once you get it, you will have another dream lol believe me.

winedemonium · 16 August 2011, 12:27 PM

Bond style Sub that can cut rope and deflect bullets please - but update that with ceramic bezel. Actually, maybe make that a DSSD.
