so the front has cyclops, domed or lipped crystal above timing bezel and has two pushers. i bet there are crown guards. the back has what appears to be a larger case back or antimagnetic shield.

so it is either a diver with a timing mechanism or a chronograph. it is something brand new imo. not a refresh or dial change.

Looks like a GMT to handle the issue with time zone differences exemplified by the time difference between NYC and Bangalore. Namely the roughly thirty-minute offset of certain time zones.

no cyclops on SD, please.
SDs are tool watches, it's the legend of diving watches, and hope that still remains like this

It is a slightly thick material, being "vacuum packed" over the new watch. The thickness ensures they give away exactly what they want to, and no more.

So I suspect the cyclops is standard, but the details and edges are hidden.

it could be two different watches, i don't think the one with pushers (back view) it's a new model, maybe and probably the daytona in rolesor/gold.

Wasn't there some talk about a patent Rolex obtained for what appeared to be jumping date dials? I am thinking we have a brand new line coming.

I think they are 2 different watches. The white covered one is a 37mm sub and the one showing the back is a complication Cellinini

I'd say the white one is the new Sea-Dweller, consistent with the rumors of the current SD4K being discontinued. The Sub has had a cyclops for like 50 years, I don't understand why some people are shocked at the idea of a diver with cyclops.

The black one may be an update to the YM2. The bezel looks quite wide, like in the sports models. I doubt it's a Cellini chrono as some have suggested, the bezel would be thin.

Thanks, Melchizedek. This is exactly what I was saying. Rolex Cyclops magnifiers are not plastic.

Sure looks like a Turn-O-Graph bezel to me. Fluted and with bezel markers with Cyclops is tough to be anything else, unless a brand new series.

My best guess is what we are seeing is the new Datejust 41 Turn-O-Graph with caliber 3235

The other on Rolex's site looks to be a chronograph with no crown guards. Perhaps the new non-professional complicated chronograph

Rolex teaser

Guys, it is just me or this looks like a pic from the underside of the watch, thus the whole raised crystal topic becomes void.

Also, the pusher on either side of the crown also look like crowns to me! Hmm...
