I would suggest a Red Sub C, with old style case, all the new features. Pretty simple really.

in the dress series, i say, bring back bark in the DD only. i like the exclusivity of bark.

on sports (tool) series, get rid of PCLs and bring back brushed centre links.

I would like to the Daytona come with a brushed center link and increase the case size to a 42MM. If we are going all out maybe add a date function as well.

i would improve the SS daytona by increasing the number of dial choices. namely, i would have it offered with the PANDA dial!

The lack of a date is the main reason my Daytona doesn't get much wrist time. The Tudor version has one. Daytona needs one.

I would start off with a WG Sub then…
1.Take off the Blue ceramic bezel insert and face then replace it with a black ones .
2.Give it an all brushed finish. (Yes, it would have an SS look)
Nice plain and simple.

I definitely like the idea of brushed center links and more dial options for the SS models.

Now that's a fresh idea!

Methinks that the face would be very crowded, but it's a very cool and fresh idea.

I think you might find the dial will be too cluttered. Esp with the GMT hand. Might work on a sub though.

I'd like to see a commemorative edition old style-new technology of the 60/70's Rolex models.

Imagine a 2012 "double red" :)
