So if you had the ear of some rolex higher ups, and they wanted suggestions, what if anything would you change or improve? I myself would like the option of a blue face/bezel submariner in SS.

43 mm for all sport watches.

A PRESIDENT BRACELET in SS!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rolex dignitaries Martin Goerg, Yogesh Shah are you guys reading?

Hansch99 · 13 October 2010, 08:46 AM

A rethinking of their Prince/Cellini lines. I'd love to have a dressy, leather-banded Rolex, but those just don't do it for me.

Singslinger · 13 October 2010, 08:48 AM

A scratchproof bezel for the Daytona, maybe in black.

That would even be higher on my list than an improved clasp on the Yacht Master. I imagine the improved clasp will happen fairly soon, however it probably will take longer for the scratch proof bezel to show up on the Daytona.

Ditto!

I would have more dial options (choices) and bring back the freedom to swap, or buy new dials in the event you grow tired of your current dial. Rolex now limits what few dial swap options one has.

I agree with you

I would ask them to lower their prices!

and add a date(cyclops). Now, that's a perfect watch.

That is a great wish! funny but true. Also maybe they can squash in a date in the Daytona models.

kareemthedream33 · 13 October 2010, 09:01 AM

I would ask for more freedom to switch dials, bracelets, etc. I have no problem with them not allowing parts to gray market dealers but I cannot stand the dictatorial attitude I encounter every time I ask for something as simple as switching to a NATO strap. I basically got laughed at when I inquired about buying a glidelock clasp for my SD. "you can have one if you buy a new model that has glidelock" Thank you very much Einstein.

Make the cyclops an option.

1) GMTii-C in SS with deep blue dial and black bezel, and,

2) Interchangeable coke/pepsi ceramic bezels for black dial.

Don't flame me, but I'd like to buy an Explorer II without that extra hand!

Yes, I know.

What I can't figure out is why.

To make it cheaper or cleaner looking?

Of course, we're all dreaming here, but the Explorer II was designed for those who are in an environment where light does not provide a clue as to the time of day, as in spelunking or in the Arctic or Antarctic.

Regardless, we can all dream that someday Rolex would actually listen to the wishes of one owner and that we could design our own perfect Rolex without having to modify an original.

Wouldn't that be great?

Frogman4me · 13 October 2010, 09:36 AM

No pcl's on the GMTII C

behardt · 13 October 2010, 09:50 AM

RBR76 · 13 October 2010, 11:14 PM

Make bigger watches

But keep the Submariner unchanged for the many years to come.

Improve the service quality of RSC

mborkow · 13 October 2010, 09:54 AM

go back to red hand and red lettering on the GMT --and thus insanely drive up the value of the current green handed and lettered GMTs!

behardt · 13 October 2010, 10:16 AM

rose gold daytona on a strap (I bet it's coming in 2011)

behardt · 13 October 2010, 10:17 AM

TT Rose gold and SS submariner...
