Bold prediction

A 41 mm Daytona,

The Daytona is the king but it needs to be slightly bigger

Unfortunately demand is so high, Rolex does not need to do it

The bold move is to maxi case the Daytona in the next 5 years

Would be cool with a GMT 'Blueberry'. Surely should be popular considering BLNR popularity. Or better yet, a Blueberry with blue dial.

My money is on them doing this (black dial blue bezel) in Pt. But I still think it’ll be cheaper than the original version...

Blue dial SS subC! It’s time for the sub to get the new movement and a new introduction for it to claim back its position in the Rolex line

It is like Patek, they are amazing, but they can do even better. The problem is people just buy them no matter what.

Daytona - Slightly larger?

I think the Daytona is amazing but the hype keeps us from seeing tits imperfections.

Just like the DJ2 had to be modified with a new Dajejust 41 to correct certain aesthetics, shouldn't the Daytona be ever so slightly larger and more legible. Most of you will not agree, I know......I know.

AND it will not happen for years; but eventually Rolex will modify the Daytona Case Size, it could be 1 mm larger with larger/thicker sticks. Maybe better dial contrast.

Maybe a ceramic dial as a first for Rolex in the Daytona (with high polish and contrast for the sub-registers), could you imagine it.

Green dial for the OP 36mm and perhaps the 39mm too.

  1. New movement for rest of GMT line.
  2. New movement for rest of DJ 36 line, including SS models, and maybe new colors.
  3. Possibly a new Sub with new movement and maybe new color, PM or TT model only; no substantive changes to case size.
  4. There will be something that steals the show; maybe the new Sub.
