2020 everybody know 100% that the 116610LV would be discontinued, because at the very least it would be getting the 3235 and becoming a 126610LV. Same with the 116610LN.

here is the pertinent part:

1. Rolex Submariner 116610LV “Hulk” discontinued.

Shock horror, Rolex discontinuing the Green Submariner 116610LV in 2020. This was a prediction of many last year and even in 2018 but it still hasn’t happened. Rumours of this model being discontinued at Baselworld over the past couple of years have sent the grey market price of this model through the roof and I imagine that if it is discontinued this year the price will increase even further. I’m really glad I gpurchased mine before the 2018 Baselworld show. As regular readers know I don’t buy Rolex watches as an investment but it’s good to know you can buy something, enjoy it, and sell it on for more money than you paid for it some years later. So, that is our first prediction, I am pretty sure that Rolex will discontinue the 116610LV in 2020.

You just pointed an example with 10 guesses of which 8-1/2 were wrong and 1-1/2 correct? Everyone can do it, if I make 10 guesses for 2021 for sure 2 will be spot on.

Marc had 2/2.

I am not going to argue more.
Two days left

and your point? marc posts videos that never came true either (see yachmaster ss) video and then in the link i posted a mere 3 weeks before the releases, he said the same thing during his submariner video.


i just dont understand why you are defending him so much. at least admit he was wrong or that he never predicted 41mm (which is the sole reason for our banter to begin with). you specifically said he was the first to predict 41mm with his leak and that you essentially trust his leaks because of that:


in reply to my post:
"How far in advance did he actually predict 41mm specifically. Everyone knew sub would be replaced. I don’t recall him mentioning 41mm until it was already leaking out to the general public"


YOU wrote:
"Four to five months in advance he posted two videos. One saying that the hulk is discontinued and another one showing a leaked picture of the exact 41mm sub. They are still in his channel in case you want to check, uploaded in May 2020. I remember everyone was making fun of him at that time about both predictions that where actually leaks from his source, and in fact 100% correct."

i added 4 other links to that post predating his btw where the predictions were more limited with not so many that didnt happen. but i think you are ignoring one thing: most had consistent predictions that the hulk was getting discontinued.

ok no more arguing. 2 more days it is

If you don't see that this video posted in May 2020 shows the current sub in it's exact form, I can't help you. And this is the only one that exists. This can only be done if you have somebody, it's a true leak.

[karteo]

Is it only me who finds this prediction game the silliest possible, or anyone shares this view too?

What If someone falls 100% in? Is he getting any bonuses or moves up in the waiting lists?

I love my rolexes but all this craziness is more like a religious act, like waiting and predicting a miracle to happen.

It's just watches. Some new will come, some old will leave the building. It's gonna be like this every year. Too many topics talking about the same and the same feeding the hype or the troll.

BTW all my rolexes are discontinued. 116520, 16610, 16710, BLNR, 114060. I am totally ruined and obsolete

what does it show, a crown at 6? have you heard of photoshop? i have seen that image but i have also seen plenty of images online that were digital showing what you saw: here is one 3 months BEFORE his video from 5/2020, from monochrome watches... is that the leaked image too? it also references slimmer lugs and was from 2/2020 and is a very well known site!

what are we waiting for? are you saying the oyster GMT will become the new/current model, replacing the jubilee?

if you read my posts above i said i can see it being an option i just dont see them undoing the jubilee. so if thats what we are waiting for then lets do it.

IF he is right about this, i agree he was the first to say it. i havent seen anyone say this before

As I said above, no I don't see it happening. My feeling is that the GMT line will remain untouched

There you go, new Batman on Oyster

leaks may be coming out. Looks like it may be true. IF true, wow i will be the first one to say this: that fool Marc Goldberg had the inside scoop this time for sure. i am happy to know that a youtuber has someone on the inside and it may be true. we will know for sure late tonight

although i was saying that if they do do it, it will be both jubilee and oyster as the only way it would be true. guess it was

For the last two days I am trying to tell you that M.G. had the inside info last year too and he was the only one.

i still think you are reading much more into his "leak" than was actually revealed from last year.... this was a different source as well. and for this leak he actually said "replace" jubilee and not add onto it. regardless, he was onto something with this one. i still disagree with the sub info where he only stated things we all already expected and left out the most important part of 41mm

Ok no problem.
To my eyes he is the only person on earth who had an actual source both last year and this year. He never said predictions, he said this and that will happen, and was 100%.

Excellent observation!

[DJ39]

He has information from his sources

Yes I believe his sources are real and that he got this one right and last year right

A broken watch is correct twice per day.

Except he said the jubilee was being discontinued on the GMT. Which it is not - the jubilee lives on for GMTs. So he was not, in fact, correct.

Ok he was wrong

Mate, ONLY correct prediction on the entire watch planet. Sorry if it makes you sad. Everyone else was talking about explorer II, milgauss, SD43, Cameron, etc. He was just SPOT ON.

(BTW, I don't even like the guy nor his videos.)

Another wrong prediction, well, half wrong so that's not too bad I guess..

This! l

Lots of haters here doubting this guy. He is right way more than anyone else out there who pretend to have sources inside. noone even mentioned the oyster on steel GMTs before he did.

He said R is going back to oyster. Never said discontinuing jubilee

I thought that even after they announced it. I would be pissed if I owned the WG version.
