For some reason while I was creating a GMT watch the black dial showed as an option. Have not been able to replicate. Did not take a screenshot. Maybe someone else can replicate or it is a glitch. It has with the jubilee bracelet.

The only thing interesting to me is the platinum day date.

Well supposely very hard to machine, the exclusivity of the 40 MM Platinum DD with the smooth bezel over the other DD models is gone….. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

I kind of agree, but need better pictures.
I was expecting something closer to the dial from Chopard's Alpine Eagle, mimicking the iris of an eagle. |

Wow. The updated AK is my favorite release by far. A perfect watch for the common man.

anyone else think the plat day dates with a fluted bezel look...wrong...? i'm surprised they even introduced that after it's been such a tradition to have it come with a smooth bezel

Maybe. It was not tradition; they just couldn't do it otherwise it would have happened ages ago. Like the SD cyclops.

Hell compared to five digit models, the bezel was held in place by a metal spring now the bezel is being held in place by a plastic gasket. With time comes new innovative manufacturing process. |

That yacht master looks like distressed denim jeans.
This all seems like the end of an era (for Tudor as well btw). |

I only buy no date watches which means Rolex has very little that interests me, so I was hoping for a complete redesign of the dial (I had a Milgauss and liked the case as is). I went through all 9 pages of new models and after page 2 thought it was just going back to the beginning of 2 pages total. It's like they are becoming Omega. Sent from my SM-G991U using Tapatalk |
