Has anyone read about the death of the Submariner?

I was searching for something on Google and saw this article.From Discover on Google https://www.fratellowatches.com/brea...riner-is-dead/

I never know what to believe about Rolex until it actually happens!

It might be March 31st here in North American, but it's already April Fool's Day in Europe!! I must admit, reading through the article, it is well done, and extensive!

Cheers,
Carl

I got a good laugh out of it. Thanks for sharing, and now the secondary market is going to increase prices again!

That was funny and sad at the same time: if someone had told me even a couple years ago that the steel GMT would no longer be available on an Oyster bracelet I would have thought they were joking.

Totally agree! The only thing to predict with Rolex is unpredictability!!

My AD said the entire professional line is being discontinued and Rolex is focussing on the Cellini line.

Fratellowatches logic: one unnamed source and "absent from shop windows" not because of high demand, but according to article's author low demand. And the next ones out are GMT and Daytona...

Bunch of poop...
