Question, is that the only "new" watch Rolex came out with this year or are we going to see more tomorrow?

Prince Tudor · 18 March 2010, 05:55 AM

Not really impressed with Rolex so far this year. I don't mind the new EXP but what the heck is with the hands???????????????????

Tudor struck another home run with the new MC

2careless · 18 March 2010, 06:01 AM

So, still no ceramic pepsi/coke

The new Exp1 looks good except for the hand size. How can they miss this?
Not impressed at the moment.

chillviper · 18 March 2010, 06:03 AM

The new EXP reminds me of the new Burger King commercials with the dude with the small hands!

Got to say, seeing the new submariner and the new explorer side by side i tend to think the 'new' case design doesn't really work with that bracelet, the explorer looks a lot better as the lugs on the sub make the bracelet look too narrow.

Still, sad as it might sound, green is my lucky colour, and i'll more than likely own that sub lv one day

chillviper · 18 March 2010, 06:17 AM

Now this, I like! Just don't want to buy each model to make them.

Nothing breakthrough about those three, the Black Sub was as anticipated, Green one is novel but uninteresting and the Explorer is nice but its not my grail. JMHO

Submarino · 18 March 2010, 06:34 AM

Love that green dial Sub.

Why don't you just have a jeweller brush those pcl's ? I did and IMO it looks much better.

I actually really like the green sub. I wonder what kind of MSRP it's going to carry.

IMO Rolex screwed up something tremendous. I'm so glad I've got a 16610 U serial and truthfully I wouldn't trade it for a new Sub, no way. The entire lineup looks like hell. I don't know who they have doing R&D but they sure the hell aren't listening to what we're saying. VERY DISAPPOINTING!

007Willster · 18 March 2010, 07:26 AM

Do you guys think that the absence of the no date sub means they have discontinued it or will it will continue as is? Also, does anyone remember at Basel 2009 if the 14060M made an appearance? In other words, do all Rolex models appear at the show or only those they wish to showcase. BTW, in February I picked up the 16610 and the 14060M, both "V" serials from my AD just because...

I agree that the green sub may look better in person, but also agree that its not my cup of (green) tea.

The Original LV Sub has the black dial the green dial does not look right maybe you can get it with a black dial which would look better

Thunderbird Two??
(the bezel insert just smacks of TB2 for some reason?)

& if I buy one.....

Daytonaboy1977 · 18 March 2010, 07:39 AM

Sorry guys but after careful deliberation - the Deep Sea Sea Dweller is still the best watch out of Geneve to this date!! Nice effort though in a way I quite like the LV!

rockyn · 18 March 2010, 07:58 AM

I was hoping there would be an updated EXP II, guess not.

swatty · 18 March 2010, 08:02 AM

I,m going to reserve my judgement untill I see some of these new watches in the flesh

Can't say how fast, I just know that Mapquest puts it at 9.5 and when I was in Lville at a conference there were some Toronto boys there who made the drive even faster than 9.5! Vertical pedal on the right!
