Maybe we can call it the Singapore edition GMT. Simmering nicely at night time, on fire / inferno temperature during the day lol. Plus a nice SG red.

Haha! Too true.

The date just motif dials have been discontinued since February. AD's were informed since then. There are still some being delivered. This is not a prediction.

Rolex announces this during watches and wonders, not randomly a few months prior

Exactly. They don’t even announce it per se. The reference just disappears from Rolex.com. Spoiler alert, the palm dial is still up on Rolex.com

Would love to see a full & TT RG Submariner with single colour brown bezel & bronze sunburst dial.

Coke GMT will probably be released in WG first before SS so don’t get too excited unless you’ve got 36G’s to splash

Tudor just released a pink dial chrono with a jubilee bracelet perhaps linked to the tie up with Inter Miami

TBH, what WOULDN'T sell like crazy these days if it says "Rolex" on the dial.

I would normally agree but our very own Rolex watchmaker pretty much confirmed its discontinuation so I know which way I’m betting.

Tell that to the YM 2.

I personally think that orange bezel GMT is plain ugly and would not be very popular other than with the pure speculators and the color-blind.

I find this GMT master mock up cooler than the latest Tudor in terms of colors mix.

I just hope the Pepsi isn't discontinued just to screw over the grey market.

I don't think this would screw over the gray market. If not discontinued (which I don't think it will) the pepsi will still have a very long waitlist and will hold its premium right behind the ss daytona.

This. If it got discontinued, I’d imagine the grey market price would actually explode. There are thousands, if not millions of these things in circulation.

Anyone think the BLNR will be discontinued? I haven't heard any incomings for that piece this year.

[z train]

my predictions --

- Fuchsia GMT makes a return

- Full yellow gold Pepsi introduced

- Day Date 40 rose gold blue dial

- Palm dial datejusts discontinued

- Batman/girl discontinued

The current BLRO has washed colors. It’s already kind of fuschia

Last year, the teaser dropped on the 23rd of March, exactly four days before the new collection unveiling, the 27th. Therefore, I expect the teaser to drop on Friday, April 5 this year.

I wrote about it here: https://coron.et/new-1minute-reads/e...tion-unveiling

A rep at Rolex in Geneva also confirmed the exact drop time of the 2024 collection unveiling: 8:30 CET on April 9. “Everything will be revealed on our platforms at 8:30am Geneva time on April 9,” she told me.

Me at 8:29 on April 9: refresh, refresh, refresh...

Thanks for your input. It is mega accurate.

Do you, by any chance, remember or have a record of the exact time the first 2023 teaser was released by Rolex?

Just throwing it out there, all this talk of Pepsi being discontinued because of bezel issues , how about Rolex have spent the last year or so perfecting a new type of bezel or different way of producing it because it’s their “flagship” model. We can argue all day about the most iconic watch Rolex produce , but for me the Pepsi in all its iterations is THE most iconic so why wouldn’t they put efforts into perfecting or improving a so called bezel issue.
Just removing it to me is a way to say we , as in Rolex, can’t solve this problem and therefor admit defeat ..
Or on the other hand the Coke replaces the Pepsi and I look a complete fool …
Again …..
