I personally don't think they will simply provide black bezels on current designs, another possibility is to change the bezel shape back to the vintage models.
I guess we will have to wait and see ![]()

I think that as they get more into ceramic and bezel technology, it will happen...
Perhaps not this year... but I think that it's inevitable at some point...... ![]()

I think it will definitely happen as Rolex advances further into the ceramic world. I gotta say, it would make a sweet "vintage-modern" looking time piece!

I can see this happening. It will be a natural evolution of the ceramic bezel.

Im not sure about this....if a change is made one way or another, it will be a step in a direction that some will like and some not...unless ofcourse they pull off something really special ...nothing short of a stroke of genius master design....

Anything is possible I guess. I agree with Tools sometime in the future the bezel will be made of ceramic!!!

How about getting a SS white faced Daytona, and PVC'ing the bezel? ;) That would probably look sick!!!

would also love to see a brushed bezel on the stainless steel model. Eliminate all polished surfaces from the watch and it would be an improvement in appearance.

That's about the only thing I would ask for in a Daytona. A black bezel. The current polished bezel makes the numbers hard to read.
