I wish it would be a new Daytona, but on past experience I just can't see it happening. Rolex makes a truck load of $$$ from releasing in year one the 18K, then in year two it is TT and year three it is SS....

an SS YMII would be an interesting footnote, but, for it to be "teaser-worthy", it needs to be something that people will talk about it. an SS YMII would be a colossal "yawn" (not to put down the YMII....it's a nice piece, i'm just saying it is not headline material).
if an SS daytona is not an option because rolex still needs to roll out more solid gold and TT versions, then, i think there's a higher probability of a bi-color GMT over an SS YMII.
two days to go!
