Daytona 60th anniversary

[rolexdd40yg]

What do you think Rolex will release next year for the anniversary of the Daytona ?

[Rickkk]

A daytona

[Mini2]

Rose gold green dial

[mykii]

My prediction is that Rolex will refresh or release a Daytona or several Daytonas.

Hopefully they improve the weight and length of the hands.

How boring.

[AEV]

It is perfect as it is.

Perhaps:
Ceramic bezel for the two tone models.
And RG two tone.

The Daytona II. A 42 mm watch and updated dial design.

If they made it just a fraction larger - even a genuine 40-41mm would be fine - and sorted out the daft asymmetric lugs on the SS model, then that's all it really needs IMO. The 4130 is perfect as it is, so there's no point in "32xx-ising" it in any way.

One thing is for certain though - it'll be evolution not revolution. And no doubt incredibly minor evolution at that.

a new 42mm case size daytona for men only!

Dude. A 60mm Daytona in Platinum so masculine no woman would dare to wear it!

[DESH]

70th year of tue sub is coming up as well. So I think we will see a sub celebration first

[Solo118]

Maybe a new dial, I do not think much else to be honest.

This is my thought too.

Daytona is too special to the brand to mess with it.

[Chiboy]

Hopefully discontinue the platinum Daytona so I can sell mine for A MILLION DOLLARS!!!!!

j/k

[Seddyspaghetti]

Full ceramic daytona

[fsprow]

- 1 mm larger.
- Easier to read subdials.
- Non screw in pushers with a new approach to sealing against water ingress.

[Danny83]

Probably make it 41 mm

[illiguy]

What if they did a green ceramic bezel (a la the 122610LV) to mark the anniversary? I assume something Green is in play - which metal is the real question.

The screws on the pushers are not there for water resistance

[brandrea]

Hopefully make it more legible

I anticipate seeing a ridiculous amount of YouTube hype, leading to threads on this forum, and then absolutely nothing happening.

[YGRLX]

Whatever it is, I’m excited to see it!

[Shaitan]

Maybe Ceramic bezels on the pm’s on bracelet.

Evolution to a 12 Series Daytona seems inevitable.

If we follow the evolution of the other lines, then …

Daytona 126500

- 41mm (40.5-40.6 measured)

- Glidelock Clasp (PLEASE !!)

- Larger Bracelet (to be proportionate to the enlarged case)

- 4 Matching Lugs (as in the PM models)

- No Date (PLEASSSSSE !!!)

- Crown on Dial at 6:00

- Midnight Blue Bezel / Midnight Blue Subdials would be nice

[HMHM]

Why is everyone so interested in making the Daytona bigger? Bigger isn’t always better!
For those that want a bigger Daytona, get the Tudor BB chronograph.

[KY..]

Titanium Daytona or full ceramic as previously mentioned…

[Roger Lococco]

It will be a left handed version. Which everyone will hate, but most will pursue to no end.

It'll have more red text and I'll cost 4x as much instead of 2x LOL

Take your pick;

* 41-42mm case.

* All non ceramic bezel models discontinued at that point (precious metal versions in WG/Everose and YG) and replaced with new models.

* Platinum Daytona discontinued but to be re-introduced in a few years time.

* Date function added, maybe.

* Continuation of the current 116500 in Steel 40mm until their replacement in 2024 to match the 2023 60th Anniversary precious metal launches in the new case size.

* Price increases.

* More dial/material configurations.

* Still hard to get but worthwhile!

[faimag]

it is perfect as is. just make it more available
