thanks, I knew I was being stupid. I got a full rose/chocolate and a full yellow meteorite, nice to see they both gone. I assume they will go up in value now?

Didn't you gift the YG meteorite to your dad? I'm hoping for you he won't flip it for a quick buck.

I am wrong above - I’ve found in under “see all watches” but it isn’t on “configure your watch”. Must be a website glitch.

I don't see in the configurator the ability to create the RG Daytona OF with chocolate dial anymore

Wonder if they will rise much, so many for sale as they never seemed that popular

But this is no ordinary lead, this lead is super refined and cerachrome coated and super heavy. Plus I heard that Rolex is going to launch a range of watches Basel 2023 with interchangeable cases, ranging from 40mm 280g, 42mm 328g, 44mm 459g right up to 72mm 950g for when you want a super heavy and super size wear watch day .Now this range will be supplied with easy open case backs that are self sealing, just pop open, pop out movement and change case and wear. But again like many rumours some of these rumours are just rumours have a nice big watch day.
Which watchwinder do you recommend for the 72mm model Peter?

The picture is misleading. The white two tone SkyD or the blue dial SkyD are still there. (yes new movement and reference number, but still...)

The entire Milgauss collection gone. I've been on a list for 2 years with no hope now.
And gray will now go up.

John Mayer gone. Also on the list for that one.

This sucks. I'm going to start just going gray for every watch. I'm tired of the waiting.
At least the BLNR is still there.

I don't understand which John Mayer you're talking about. There were two.

I also don't understand how someone on a list for a Milgauss for two years thought they were going to get either of the John Mayers?

I absolutely LOVE the meteorite 126719 BLRO and would have preferred Rolex permanently discontinue that also as that would have made the meteorite GMT truly special. Lots of people have said Rolex is running low on Gibeon meteorite but who knows how much actual supply Rolex is sitting on.

All previous daytonas have technically been discontinued. There are enough differences from the previous gen to the current, even if dial colors are the same
