Wow. Real mixed bag of reviews. I for one love it. Put my name in the hat for one but like pretty much every other watch I’ve asked for I’m sure the call won’t come

I don't really like this one from Rolex. It's a fun piece, but out of charter IMO

For some reason I keep thinking of this one a lot lately. I think if I go for it though my wife will kill me since she hates it.

They did make a leopard Daytona at one point amongst other wild variants, it’s not too far out of character just not the typical Rolex staple type watch.

Hahaha to each their own, but I feel like this was a jab from Rolex to perhaps get into the younger crowd.

As long as there’s a Rolex logo on it, some people will love it and buy it. They could literally put anything on the dial and the fanboys (and girls) would surely emerge.

Rolex green palm dial presentation yesterday in my AD

Mark my vote in the “Aye” column. I happen to like it.

Palms of today could be the Cloisonné of tomorrow (say 70 years hence).




Daring design choices come only every once and a while. You are witness to a new one now.

Sometimes a new dial style only catches the eye of a few. Whenever exotic options come from Rolex you never know to whom it will appeal.



Shifting gears from the PalmDJ just for a moment, I wanted to say that sometimes Rolex is decades ahead of its time despite their otherwise conservative manner.

The traditional Daytona dials were preferred by drivers compared to the exotic dials that now command more money.

Now a revered look.

Uhhhh man. This could go down as the biggest release mistake in the history of Rolex. I mean maybe for a botanist?

I honestly don’t get why so many people dislike this one.
But it’s good news for me tho. Less competition. ��

Absolutely hideous - and illegible (at least in the online pix) - but at least one reason to be happy the showcases have no watches in them!
