1. Milgauss - Revamped plus new movement
2. Coke is always expected ( maybe Pepsi or Batman one colour goes away, so 3 colours in GMT )
3. Red Sub ?? Very doubtful, Rolex never follows market trends and always does something different - probably datejust red dials more likely.
4. 42 mm daytona - new links or some subtle progression changes
5. Sd43 may get the chop

Typically, the majority of things are pretty simple, and involve combinations of components already existing. So…

GMT colors: more lefty/righty overlap
GMT bracelets: TT/PM jubilee; maybe PM OF (nod to historic use of straps)
Milgauss: If continued, new movement w/o faraday cage, Rolex won’t be bested by Omega on advertised antimagnetic levels (big new one)
WG polar Explorer: 70 years after Everest (not likely)
New DJ/OP dials: because, always…
New exotic material dials for DD: good way to bump price, show craftsmanship
DJ41 baguettes: higher prices/differentiation
Serti dials: return to some PM Professional models

That would mean a huge drop in demand for Rolex both new and used. Do not really see that happening.

I mean it was already a dinner plate at 39mm, 42 is just begging for the official nickname. There's absolutely no reason for a watch with so little going on inside the dial to have more empty dial space.

Don’t see it on the OP. The colorful dials are always lacquer, and for a black lacquer dial there’s always the Explorer 36 - a similar watch to the OP36.

Hopefully they will restrict supply further and buy back exhibition pieces from ADs to spike prices

METAS certification comes to Rolex production pieces. Also a new Anniversary 'tona with green bezel.

Well they got 2 birds with 1 stone with the new Deepsea Challenge. Obviously covers diving, but can also double up as a polo mallet if you attach it to a stick.

Never going to happen, but that's my ultimate grail watch right there...

I agree with the prediction of a new Milgauss, basically exactly like the new Air-King save the dial and crystal. Which begs the question: why even update it?

I‘d love to see a no-date titanium Yacht-Master. They‘ve already made it, so why not release it as a production model.

Most likely some small evolutionary change to the Milgauss, maybe similar to the Air King refresh last year.

I just can’t see anything changing with the Daytona besides maybe an addition/subtraction of a dial variant or two
