Either this is faked or Rolex has since changed the name of the object. Line 199 now reads:

<div class="flash introduction_flash_1 parbase teaser-august-2014 introduction_flash">

Probably is a blue dssd but what about rubber strap for the dive series? A few years back there was a patent in place for a rolex rubber strap, and Rubber B is well received. Rubber is the thing at the moment? Maybe it's just me wishing for it.

Yeah my guess is someone at HQ saw this thread and let out an expletive and quickly changed it.

Someone from Rolex HQ is obviously a member here and caught on quick. Now the line has changed.

I have my doubts about the 'source code' but a blue DSSD seems entirely possible

I wonder how many pages this thread will be by Monday?

I think it's a bedbug.

That is quite intriguing, in no small part because I've not seen any launches in August that I can remember in the few years, I've been following these things.

To me that looks like a section of a crown protector and above it there seems to be a bezel.

Now, I see the picture has changed from on where the serrations are visible and now they aren't.

The color is kind of strange, except for blued hands and screws and such.

We have some sleuths here for sure.

Wait! On the sight you can't see the serrated bezel, but in the picture below it is visible.

So, it's a DSSD of some sort with some blue somewhere.

Well, I'm going to my AD to see what they know or if they've even seen the website.

Could it be the launch of new web function within the Rolex site. It reads "Find you're rolex - explore"
