GMT Pepsi Ceramic
I wish for this too but since the Batman was introduced last year chances for GMT Pepsi is really dim.
:Praying:

Knowing Rolex...
They know what we all want... but they won't give us what we want...
My guess?
1. Two tone Sky Dweller.
2. Some new variations of some blinged out Day date and Datejusts.
3. Two tone Daytona with Ceramic Bezel maybe?
-
All I want from Rolex is a 42mm Daytona in SS with date. :Laughing_on_floor:
If that comes out then 2015 will be a year of another acquistion.

GMT Master is 60 this year, no? Perhaps the chance of a Pepsi Ceramics with lume (like Pelagos)? Perhaps in Platinum and ss next year?

More better looking complication watch.
-
Ceramic bezel daytona stainless steel...
-
Pepsi, surely?
-
No more blingy watches, back to original Rolex style.

Kind of agree with Hanz here. And the Daytona should never get a date or get any bigger than 40mm.
-
hope tht got 44mm(now only 1 ) or bigger mm cases rolex model n choices
-
Ceramic bezel daytona stainless steel...
....+1
Would be great to see a new ss daytona or a 40mm dweller ! =) . Those who are at basel please snap some pictures ! one..day ,,one year...i might be able to afford to be at basel..!!

Eh.... How bout a striking 10th with bracelet then? It's 42mm with date
-
Time to get away from sports watches.... How bout reissue of their thin manual wind Cellinis
I am sure that the tooling is still there and update it with modern materials and finishing. Would sure give partrimony, MUT, calatrava and etc a run for their money.
As I see the trend, ppl are quite up to their necks now with big sports watches. At uncertain times right now, more understated models might sell better.
-
44mm Submariner :thumbsup:
-
A return to classic understated style would be better as suggested by terrenceterrence
-
Some upgrade of Explorer 1,2 ?
-
a new movement?
Hi beat?
Nah...is Rolex, it won't happen
-
Hi beat...if they wanted they would've done it long ago....
-
i agree they might for for upgrades on the explorer range. Bigger case maybe? :D

thought they upgraded the case size for both the EXP 1 and 2 to 39mm and 42mm respectively
how bug do you want to go further? 44mm 3,6,9 markers?
-
tinted sapphire glass. I just think it's cool looking~ ;D
-
New bracelet.
All I want is a proper bracelet to go with the DSSD.
Current one is out of proportion.

Revive the Air King.

Very well quoted. That's a very logical explanation

If they came up with a Seadweller in 42mm with updated parachrome, ceramic bezel (better if the bezel numerals had imbedded chromabrite -like the Pelagos), latest solid bracelet and glide lock clasp, I'd really be tempted to buy back a Rollie after >10 yr break in ownership.... ;D I.E. IF the price is not inflated to ridiculous levels.
Whilst I understand that many like it to remain 40mm, all of us have different sized wrists and a 42mm is just perfect for mine.
I can wait till this ideal model in my head materializes otherwise no lost sleep over it.
Rolex makes small incremental improvements once every decade. Is it because there's only so much they can do within the limited designs or they think its good enough to keep the loyalists to keep buying so they release a small incremental improvement one at a time to keep up the interest.
The latest Explorer II size was perfect in size for me but I just can't get over the fat hour and minute hands which I think is out of proportion. :Mad:
The Freccione GMT hand, that I love. :thumbsup:.
-
Totally agree on the fatter hands and markers and the engraved bezel is too deep and bold, too "in your face". That's just my preference. I am more towards classic design. I have always liked an Air King but 34mm a tad too small. Make one at 38mm. That will be special.

42mm? Try the sky dweller! ;D

Tastes being v personal, the Yachtmaster II, Sky Dweller, those gem stone blinged out Daytonas or leopard themed models would be the very last of the Rolex or for that matter ANY watch I would consider…..to the extent that even if any of these were gifted to me, I'd sell them off the next moment….
(face-palm)... :P

Sell cheap cheap to me! ;)

The sun will rise from the west and pigs can fly before any watch is gifted to me..(in fact none-to-date has ever been gifted to me except a Seiko Kinetic and some Swatches eons ago and duly disposed as well)
Please don't wait for me... :Laughing_on_floor:
Oh ya, an Explorer in 42mm would be lovely too…. too bad its only 39mm up from 36mm..furthermore IMHO Rolex did a huge boo boo when they increase diameter from 36-39mm but left the hour and minute hands the same size so on the 39mm, the hands are very conspicuously too short hence looks hanging.. much like a Tissot Visodate..
Dress watches can be slim and petite (i.e. 36mm-38mm max) in fact they should be; but sports watches look odd if they are too small relative to the wrist they are on. Thats my opinion and taste only of course.
-
root beer reincarnation?
I'd like a bigger turn-o-graph too..
-
A complete calendar with moon phase like in the 50s but at 40mm by rolex would be a hot cake.

I had earlier mentioned this in passing in one of my comments on Rolex as to why I am no longer a Rollie owner for the last decade.
The Rolex of those earlier years were to me, far more attractive having complications like triple dates and moonphases. Those designs will always be classics. These were models in addition to the simple time only.
Obviously with technological advancement in manufacturing techniques resulting in higher quality materials and more accurate tolerances, accuracy and quality of the watches nowadays may be superior but dial and movement design wise, those were the golden years of Rolex.
Whilst I harbor the same wishes as you do, I'm quite certain Rolex is very unlikely to revert to those complications as they are far too contented with their time only, GMT, day-date and chrono. Why rock the boat based on their simple base movements when sales go through the roof every year. Change a bezel or dial colour, introduce a new material and loyalist will be thankful and short term demand will spike...till the next 'upgrade'
Incidentally its far far harder to achieve chronometer accuracy when complications like triple date, moonphase, etc are added on due to the heavier demand on gear train and mainspring barrel.
Added to this, Rolex has always been touting its 'Superlative Chronometer' label although many other 'normal' chronometers or even non-certified chronometers can be as accurate, if not even more so. By adopting complications, they may very well not be able to live up to the 'Superlative Chronometer' label.

the new Milgauss looks amazing!!! better than the new GMT2 Pepsi IMO.
-
I see that my prediction for new models in the Cellini line came true.
MCH!!! How come my predictions for big sweep, 4D and toto were never so accurate?! Neymar!!!
-
Go check it out the site is updated with sooo many cool watches.
-
the Cellini :o :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

New Sea-Dweller, Ridiculously jewelled Daytona, White Gold Pepsi GMTIIc, Cellini.....I think my money is quite safe this year.
-
The new sea-dweller and the green/blue milgaus got my vote.
