The GMT makes perfect sense: GRNR is much easier to produce than BLRO. The green GMT hand leverages the history of GMT2 and harkens back to the 116710LN of yore.

Rolex is unfortunately not immune to cost cutting. See how they removed the diver extension on the 126660. See how they are now streamlining production of bezels. The less variety in these highly produced items, the lower the costs.

Have we ever had a white gold jubilee before?

IMO the screens indicate SS jubilee and SS oyster

No but I suppose there’s no reason why we can’t.

It’s only an opinion

Nobody I’ve now seen three or four leaks from different angles from what appears to be different people. They probably already had a presentation with media.

I'm just shocked we haven't gotten a relaunch of the Milgauss, otherwise business as usual for Rolex.

Wow, that Austin in Japan guy called the steel GRNR. He also opined that the BLNR would be the one to go to make room for it, we'll see if he's right about that part too.

Anyone else think these are all really boring?

Only thing that's different really is the dial on the 1908. Wonder if it's actual guilliche or just printed.

I wish they just relaunched the LN but with the Sub 41's more streamlined case.

Yes I do also.


unless they have something else waiting in the wings, but at this point it looks unlikely.

1908 is a full Guilloche, not printed/laser. A first for a modern Rolex I believe

IIRC they just patented the coke bezel. I'm pretty sure it's coming, just not this year obviously.

Logic says the BLNR is out and the new black / grey in, if it was Coke I would assume the Pepsi would be out

If that’s true, it’s pretty ironic. BLNR getting discontinued, not BLRO. lol

I’m just glad I got mine…
