Disappointed?
Ok, so I'm seeing a lot of dissapointing on this forum concerning the new releases in Basel.
But, really, I don't understand it. I mean, what do you expect?
Imho, Rolex is a company with products wich are evolving slowly. That's what I appreciate about them. In our 'throw-away/everything is replacable-society' they make an iconic/beyond life-time item. Sometimes it takes time to appreciate. Sometimes they are an instant hit. But they allready made some truly exceptional timepieces with an iconic design. What do you want? That they change rapidly? A new iconic model every baselworld?
Are we victim of the Hyper-capitalistic world that our hunger for new things, new impulses is never satisfied?
They meet our demand, many of us asked for a steel pepsi GMT. Well it's there, and it's beautiful. It has a beautiful jubilee bracelet. Altough i do prefer an Oyster too. But when I see the comments on this forum, i picture myself a bunch of spoiled children!
Let's realize that we are damn lucky to be able to be a part of this!!
