i think is really quite ugly actually , love the old one much better.

Mr.Mojorisen · 1 April 2010, 03:49 AM

i would really like to see a black dial option but other than that the new case looks great if they dont offer a black dial i will most likely pick up a LN and pick up the older lv.

Firebison · 6 April 2010, 12:26 PM

I am considering this watch as my first Rolex. I currently own a Breitling Super-Ocean with a coral dial. I like the unusual dial colors and that's what got me interested in this watch. Is this the only green dial watch in the Rolex lineup? Were there any other green dials in previous models?

GMT has one green dial black bezel in all yellow gold. It just looks gorgeous.

thanks for the pics Larry....I would like to see it on a wrist...but I like where Rolex is going - nit necessarily an improvement.. but a very different watch. Looking forward to trying one on

multimedia · 6 April 2010, 04:02 PM

Great looking time piece. Thx for sharing the pics with us Larry.

Honestly, I would love to get one of these some day

Cheers,
Joe

Too much green for me

When you look at the dial in low light it looks black like in the 50th this is something i love about it

Desperado · 6 April 2010, 04:14 PM

Has to be seen first

I really think that this is the most hoorendous looking thing ever, and i love almost every rolex!!!

Juggernaut · 20 April 2010, 08:07 AM

It's nice. But I'm glad I got my non-ceramic LV when I did!

Firebison · 20 April 2010, 10:16 AM

Wow, lots of negative attention for this watch. I actually like it. It may be my first Rolex purchase.

Dear Alex {Droog}, The jury is out..... this new watch could do my gulliver in. But Ludwig van might help me out artistically.

RSubSS · 20 April 2010, 12:27 PM

I feel like i would like this watch better in person but im not a fan of the crown guards, makes the watch look more rugged and durable but i have never liked that look. Overall though it is a beautiful watch, i heard it looks "bigger" but obviously its still a 40mm....i would like to see it in person..

Mr.Mojorisen · 20 April 2010, 12:45 PM

does anyone know what the other side of the glide lock looks like?
meaning: does it still look like the submariner clasp on the other side or does it look like the glidelock on the 18k gold submariners?

ckcspice · 20 April 2010, 04:29 PM

not my cuppa tea but gota admit, it's hell of an attention grabber with that shade of green...

Huskerjss · 30 April 2010, 02:37 AM

Any news on what the release date is going to be on this watch? I really like the new LV and would like to see one in person in a shop.

ASH · 30 April 2010, 10:36 AM

I wastold by the Rolex rep yesterday that they will in the AD's this summer

andrew79 · 30 April 2010, 12:06 PM

I thought the current LV is already an attention grabber... but this new one will be even more so.... we'll see what happens... :)

drtooth73 · 5 May 2010, 10:46 PM

so they have ceramic subs in all blue WG, all green SS, black TT, whats next, red dial/bezel in red gold?

TheFlatHead · 12 May 2010, 06:55 PM

I guess I have to see it in person but these hi-res pics aren't doing it for me. The green dial seems a bit over-the-top and I'm not a fan of the ceramic bezels (even though I have the DSSD). I definitely like the less shiny satin finish green bezel on my LV. I wonder if I can retrofit the new glidelock bracelet on to my LV - now that would awesome!

ETT · 25 June 2010, 10:28 AM

I think it's stunning. Almost enough so to distract me from my quest of obtaining a GMT Master II as my first Rolex acquisition

Dear Ed , you're probably right the new sub looks very nice indeed.

regards stephen

wjrw592 · 3 July 2010, 06:57 AM

I just saw the new ceramic Sub in July/August 2010 Departures magazine
in Green / Green dial - list price $7,725. That's quite a jump from $6,400
list for the LV Green/Black combination but there are lots of upgrades on it.

I think it will be tough to like at first & then grow me over some time like
the SS/plat Yachmaster did ~ back to saving for a new watch!

orioner · 5 July 2010, 03:45 AM

I personally like the new lunette verde. Do you guys like the new or older one? I think a poll would be interesting

Juggernaut · 11 September 2010, 01:22 PM

I don't mind the green dial so much, but I just can't get past the super case. I think the profile and the proportions of the previous line is perfect...a classic!
Plus, I always prefer Matte finishes and so I don't care for the high shine on the ceramic bezel inserts.

djmarcox · 29 September 2010, 12:11 AM

whats the us retail on this at the moment.. Im looking for my first rolex and I think this is the one I want..
