Lets be real. There is only the GMT that is in most of our price range.

This release wasnt for the great unwashed who beg their ADs for a chance of buying a SS watch.

Not a single release I really need or want this year. Biggest new is the discontinuation of the LeMans in white gold. So stupid. That decision symbolizes everything that is wrong with this industry...

I do want to try on the YG DS, as it is now called, even tho AP ROOs on gold bracelets never did it for me, and the 44mm and 43mms don't even have gold bracelet options as AP are not apparently as mad as Rolex.

With the exception of the 18kt Deepsea (which I think is possibly the most ridiculous watch Rolex have ever made), I can safely say I’ve never been more totally and utterly indifferent to a set of Rolex releases.

My cash is safe for this year, nothing takes my fancy from today’s releases.

The BB GMT comes close, delivers what a lot of people have been asking for, it’s just in the wrong colour for me - not a fan of the gilt colouring on any of the models.

Tudor BB41 in black is a nice addition - if I didn’t have a submariner I could see myself wanting that.

Best news of the day is that BLNR / BLRO aren’t discontinued - on the ‘list’ for a GMT so looks like I have another year!

I’m in market for a WG DD, the new blue or MOP dials on the 36 look good. Other than that….

The platinum 1908 is the only watch that strikes me at the moment. And me still not needing or wanting a dress watch.

Nothing in the current line up excites even less the new releases this year.

I like the SS GMTII with black/gray bezel on jubilee. Will not buy one however pending confirmation Rolex has fixed the 32XX movement issue.
