Very interesting, indeed. Overdue for a "fat-lady" type re-release

Makes sense. Thanks for explaining.

red and orange bicolor bezels

I'm wondering why Rolex decided to file the patent in mid 2022, knowing that it'll become public a month before Watches and Wonders 2024. I hope they're not trying to hype up the market just for nothing.


Also, did you guys notice that red and orange bicolor bezels are now possible in the patent?

Don't like the Coke myself but I could see them discontinuing Batman for this. Then redo the lineup for the 75th anniversary with new bracelet and case.

Orange and black would actually be an appealing color combination to me. But I doubt we’ll ever see it.
