Anybody else following the Rolex Instagram page....

They usually put lots of hints about their new work......currently covered in Milgauss pictures, modern and vintage. Is this a hint for Basel...?

Who knows!!! Maybe!!

I’ve noticed that lately myself. I think a homage to the 6541 Milgauss with a ceramic bezel would be a big hit!

I have noticed this myself, wondering if we will see a new Mili that will look closer to the original, incorporating a rotating bezel, than today's reference.

That would be great! I better get on the waiting list now before it even comes out!

Now is the best time to talk to ADs in anticipation of a new model release — getting in on the ground floor is the best course of action!!

We all know - regardless of what is released ‘everyone’ will want one.

I have noticed that it's getting a lot of play as well. I find it ironic that currently obtaining a milgauss I believe is 'easy' compared to other sport models and that if they release an homage with rotating black bezel, black dial and red lightening seconds, that watch will be retail plus a few grand to a gray as it will be wait listed to 2024.

It is interesting that all of their posts for the past 3 weeks are Milguass related, though I would think it is a bit early for a Baselworld teaser. Maybe they'll launch ahead of Basel to steal some thunder.

I was thinking the same when I saw that Milguass post.

I can't recall specifics, but I do seem to recall them posting about a specific model leading up to Basel and then introducing a new version.

Maybe they just know that's the only stainless model currently possible to find in a store

I like the predictions for far.
