Just spoke to my AD who’s cousin’s housekeeper’s sister’s half-brother works in Rolex product development, new models confirmed for August:

1. Redline Submariner with slimmed down case/lugs
2. Cellini Perpetual Calendar
3. Coke GMT with Oyster Bracelet
4. Steel Daytona with Ceramic Bezel and Silver Dial
5. Explorer I White Blizzard Dial
6. New Undisclosed Model in prototype Rolex in-house Titanium

To be honest a list like that would probably make us forget coronavirus even happened we’d be so elated.

Someone in product development is going to get canned if this turns out to be true. Wonder if that sub will have a date. Wouldn’t the ADs cousin’s brother also be his cousin? Weird. I call BS.

Sounds like a dreamers wishlist.

Wow, great news if this is true.

It can’t be true. All Rolex would have to do is have two of those on that list and the Rolex world would lose its collective mind. If Rolex actually did that entire list I think we’d lose a few of our WIS brothers who would pass out and hurt themselves due to all the excitement.

I agree and it’s probably the best list I’ve seen yet. This guys got great taste and imagination.

Very true. Throw a ceramic Exp2 and the pandemonium would be at an all time high.

My nephew's friend's aunt's son-in-law confirms the exact same information!

[Swiss Mad!]

Sounds like someone’s been in isolation too long lol...

Could I just ask out of interest what a ‘Blizzard’ dial is please ?

Thanks in advance

It’s more fun than talking about “grey prices“ and the Chinese virus.

People would be thrilled if this turns out to be true.... And the OP will become TRF legend!

[Danny83]

Makes sense but I dont think in August I say Baselworld

[Michigan_State]

Same question about the Blizzard dial. Like a GS? That could actually be neat.

[Rosex]

I can also confirm it's true. I just got back from a tour of the Rolex factory. They even let me try on all the above models.

Shouldn’t this post be in the jokes and cartoons section?

Great point. The other two subjects are tiresome. I think this is the best thread of the day. Even though it’s all speculation it’s fun and the OP’s list is fabulous.

Would be white, perhaps a snowflake or windy texture.

Apparently it’s some new dial variant, kind of a cross between GS and the Patek 5296 but much tougher and tactical looking.

Aah! I thought it might be like one of those little snow domes that you pick up & shake and it all fills with snow...

This is how rumors get started.

I thought they let you take the prototypes home as well??

[serpentine009]

The digital renderings of a Coke GMT II on Oyster have me drooling.

Only the first 10 customers who booked on the tour.

[GradyPhilpott]

I think that list would make a good showing for Rolex.

The in-house titanium seems kind of a stretch, though, but hey, it's the Twenty-first Century.

[yOyOYoo]

I heard from your AD that Rolex is really ramping up production of SS Daytonas to fill the demand. By this time next year, anyone who wants a Daytona can get a Daytona - MSRP.

[CKizzy]

This is Easter not April fool's...

[macrowatch]

Give the people what they want!!! And watch another hype bubble come out of it. Lol.

But seriously, that's an awesome list.
