Out of the blue

[GolfJunkie]

Platinum sub with ice “blue” dial

[BLNR1]

If this is indeed a new no-date sub in steel & ceramic and is blue, I wonder what will happen to the current black bezel / black dial sub...They did discontinue the black GMT in lieu of the new pepsi & BLNR combinations, so it could be a possibility for the new no-date.

If that were to occur, current black ceramic sub no-date values on the secondary market will be interesting to watch.

I think it’s going to be a blue dial but like the james Cameron deep sea gradient dial. Hence all the play on ocean

Crown guards looks like those of Supercase.

As an aside, the Rolex crown on the end of the crown seems almost perfectly aligned. Please demand the same from AD on your next Rolex.

I'm thinking blue sub with a non maxi case...

I agree with you, I have also checked, the word blue is not used in other languages.

Rolex is always good for a swerve on their new releases!

Make everyone think its blue and then go another direction

Out of the blue is a phrase used in UK to describe something that comes as a surprise.
We all pretty much know that a new movement Submariner is forecast so that wouldn’t come as a surprise, but I don’t think many of us would really have expected a blue stainless Submariner without the date. So if it is the “Blue Steel” then “Out of the Blue” there’s the surprise!
As for the WG Sub owners being upset, well the fact that this teaser appears to be the version without the date, might be the visual differentiator between the two models, much in the same way as the difference between WG BLRO and the SS BLRO were distinguished by the bracelet.
If only the Submariner is being released with a blue variant then perhaps the Green “Submariner Date” will continue albeit with the new movement and modified case.
All will be revealed on the 1st. Until then we can all enjoy the anticipation and speculation and what ever it may be it gives us all a bit of light hearted relief and takes our minds away from the other more serious issues that we all face in these unprecedented and uncertain times. After all, it’s just another Rolex which to be fair the majority of us will never be fortunate enough to have the opportunity to purchase from an AD, let alone own.

I’m not convinced it is a new sub, a lot of things fall into the ocean and need to be pulled out...

The lug to lug profile seems to taper down more than the current super case...

Clearly they are placing the date window at 4:30 jk jk

But as someone else said, if it is blue............then why do the other languages not use the "out of the blue" phrase that is used in the english teasers?

[DonRickles]

Remember, 57 NEW SKU's, so I'd guess more than just a single reference will be "updated".

As successful as the SS pieces are, doesn't logic tell us to expect a larger scale of PM choices?

It could just be a new black Submariner and perhaps Submariner Date with a slightly different, updated case and the new movement. I would love that as well, but a blue stainless steel Sub and/or Sub Date would be amazing.

[MCOSUB]

what if it was a blue version of this watch. No pearl.

[Lemonvr6]

What if it’s a no-date SD43? Internet group-think is the only indicator that the sub is “due” for anything.

And why would they make the lugs narrower than the GMT? Makes no sense

[Deroya]

its obviously a new stainless Cellini

So said the PM Pepsi owners. Oh, maybe that means it's a blue sub on jubilee.

I think it’s very likely that it’s a wg yachmaster of with matte blue bezel and black dial. It’s pretty clear to me that the watch in the video is on an of. I don’t think they would introduce a blue sub on an of. I hope I’m wrong.

[stainlesssteve]

They are teasing two different watches. Bubbles for the diver. Wake is for a no date Yachtmaster.

[airchitect]

If history repeats itself, shouldn’t it be a PM Sub with the TT and SS models to follow later?

[SparklesMcgraw]

I thought the YM had a double lock crown unless they change it? The video clearly shows a trip lock. Got to be a sub no?

this is the most logical statement that I've heard so far... makes sense

seems like a logical idea.

That thought occurred to me - the case back looks deeper than the Sub.

[abozz]

The lugs are very curved! (No date yatch master or new Sub case)

In Spanish it says something like “Comes to the surface”.

No color mentioned at all, not even with the “out of the blue” (unexpected) double meaning.

[asa-gao]

if go on the Chinese Rolex website, instead of "out of the blue", the following is used "Deeply hidden blue, beyond expectations". So, quite sure something blue is coming and deep is suggested...

No teasing the new OP yet? Weird.
