Hi guys,

What we all really need from Rolex as a HUGE surprise would be....

A new DATEJUST in 40 mm on an even better and specially modified Jubilee bracelet....all solid links....and a special clasp with at least 3 holes for micropin adjustments.

Now that would be something to really dream about!!

Mrdi · 11 March 2008, 03:23 AM

I think we'll get a SS Yacht Master ll

DSJ · 11 March 2008, 03:24 AM

Hmmm... that would be interesting! We've seen the Milgauss, we know they can do it!

SPACE-DWELLER · 11 March 2008, 03:25 AM

I agree, JJ!

This would indeed be a great watch!

Let's hope Rolex makes it!

veefour · 11 March 2008, 04:16 AM

Would be nice. And for me, even nicer on an Oyster brac.

Peter Messmore · 11 March 2008, 04:30 AM

I love the jubilee.A heavier, stronger one would be cool, Peter

haakon59 · 11 March 2008, 04:32 AM

I think a bigger Datejust (in addition to the current 36mm one) would be a nice addition--good idea.

puffnmo · 11 March 2008, 04:36 AM

And a 38 mm Air King might be interesting...

mfer · 11 March 2008, 04:53 AM

I have a different dream....

I want a white faced GMT IIc with a black/white ceramic bezel!!!!!

or an EXP II white with a white ceramic bezel (stationary) and orange hand!!!!!!!!!
drooooool.....

I agree. If they want anymore of my money they need to make the 40mm DJ. Well, they might get in my pocket for the GMT IIc

I think with the recent price increase there are numerous folks that are looking for something new and exciting. Otherwise, the Rolex fund may be used for another brand. At least I know that is the case with me

I think your wanting a DJ real bad my friend

Tombstone · 11 March 2008, 10:04 AM

JJ it would be nice, question would you buy one? I can't see a DJ on your arm.

Mrdi · 11 March 2008, 10:08 AM

Bigger Bigger bigger.
With large arabic numbers in neon
so all the old guys can read em.

nsolga · 11 March 2008, 10:19 AM

I'm with Bo and JJ! a 40mm DJ would be mighty tempting.... That's my only hold up

Hey Mark, do you need someone to carry your bags, get your drinks, drive you around, walk through Basel w/you?

MAXI DIAL · 11 March 2008, 12:02 PM

Come on....let the man dream.....what else does he have to dream about besides........

DSJ · 11 March 2008, 12:08 PM

Even a 39mm, like the PT DD would be nice!

timackerman · 11 March 2008, 12:10 PM

That would be a mighty nice looking watch

Agreed.....same as the 39 mm Exp-II!!

BiG JeEzY · 11 March 2008, 05:09 PM

I always wanted there to be an option of either a 36 mm or 40 mm Datejust. I like the idea of going up to 40 mm, but since many people still prefer the 36 mm size, we should be able to have a choice between the two.

DSJ · 11 March 2008, 11:49 PM

Drop the 34mm, and have 26, 31, 36 and 39/40mm...

SSD · 12 March 2008, 12:29 AM

The TOG version would be excellent, with the red seconds hand and date wheel numerals! Oh, wow...

Trurolexer · 12 March 2008, 12:44 AM

Always nice to talk about what Rolex do in the Basel 2008. My dream watch is Rolex re-design Explorer II Orange Hand again. And make Explorer 1 in 40 mm, with 3-6-9 glow. And of course upsize the SD to be 42 mm!!!

mdx77 · 12 March 2008, 12:58 AM

Just my

, but if they are going to continue with the LV, I'd like to see the Seconds hand get a green coating and make the hour hand a MAXI hand like the GMT IIc!

oh yeah.....and give us the ceramic pepsi!
