4)Smartwatches. They are more "of the moment", a phrase that has driven Rolex since its inception.

Nice post

I heard a rumor that they will purchase Swatch Group and re-brand Omega as Romega. LOL

1) the sports line will all get upgraded to a 72 hour power reserve. (YM, sub, GMT, etc.)
2) production of SS will be increased significantly
3) Yellow gold models production will be cut back significantly.
4) Rolex is working on a system to counter the grey market, they will require every watch (from 2019 - 2020 and on) you sell to be registered at an AD or service center and the current owner to be listed in the system. If not then Rolex will refuse service and maintenance to the watch (the idea is also to combat stolen watches etc.)
5) countries with many AD s and AD s that will be cought selling to dealers will be revoked and given to countries with few AD s.
6) prices will increase 5-7% across the range. (UK and Sweden maybe even more)
7) two tone models will be scarce ( artificial price hike)
8) new dials on sports models.

Again this are rumours that I came across and heard. I dunno which or if any are true. Just thought I would share. Do with it as u wish.

Have you heard any rumours ? List them below.

#4 cannot happen because of consumer law in most countries. Would be better to offer extended 15 year warranty upgrade only to the original owner, 1 time offer. So 5 year transferable warranty remains then extra 10 years if you hold which would encourage people to stay on a waiting list IMHO and keep their watch!

After reading the first post I skipped all the way to the bottom and rather spend my time through the FS section.
