Is there any speculations on what we will see in the next years release at Basel?

So far we have:
Jubilee on DJ2
Pepsi ceramic GMT
another high end piece along the lines of the Sky-Dweller or YM-II
Minute repeater
GMT Rootbeer
open cases
2013 is the year of the Fire-Dweller
djii tt domed bezel
djii gold
Daytona anniversary edition for sure--TT ceramic Daytona
A Submariner with the 16610 case, matte dial and domed crystal like on the DSSD - without cyclops por favor
boutiques, higher prices and less discounts.
A tourbillon
new and improved Deep Sea and the Deep Sea Special

Jubilee for DJII will not come, because the clock is too heavy (by Rolex).

joe100 · 8 November 2012, 08:36 AM

Pepsi GMT, because no speculation thread is complete without a Pepsi ceramic GMT.

It'll never happen but let's speculate anyway

I think we'll see another high end piece along the lines of the Sky-Dweller or YM-II. It seems that Rolex are concentrating their efforts on going after the ultra-high end market

Minute repeater would be cool!

A tourbillon would be nice.

TSW · 8 November 2012, 08:46 AM

My dream would be a Pepsi GMT...with the option of having it on Jubilee, But a new Rootbeer would also work.

But my guesses would be more boring new dials for the current collection.

Complicated new models wouldn't be my first guess as they already have been having problems getting the Sky-Dweller out to AD's and i'm sure Rolex would want to see how that one will be welcomed first.

Rolex brings back lug holes?

+1......A Rootbeer Ceramic would be wild.

Gotta agree...not a big TT guy but a modern rootbeer GMT TT would be unreal.

T.S.Eliot · 16 January 2013, 05:58 AM

1. A Daytona change/addition

2. YMII in SS with blue bezel and white dial

3. Another disappointment.

As for the whole matte dial Sub in the old case theory, I would say that ship has sailed and has a big hole in it

+1 on that one!! Would Love to see a modern rootbeer

newbieincali · 8 November 2012, 08:51 AM

I would have liked to see the Sky-Dweller-2 that handles leap year

Some open cases would be nice too....

Atfer the water, Sea-Dweller, the air, Sky-Dweller, 2013 is the year of the Fire-Dweller for the fireman, working up to 3900° celsius.

For 2014 we hope the Earth-Dweller ...

Isn't that the Explorer? Caves and mountains and such?

Ramiks · 8 November 2012, 09:09 AM

djii tt domed bezel
djii gold
ym ii
and much more blingy pieces

ludicree · 8 November 2012, 09:16 AM

Daytona anniversary edition for sure.

Something new in the GMT department.

A whitegold Explorer II would be bold, but probably not gonna happen.

A lot of bling and diamonds and dials and stuff like that for uninteresting non-sports watches, hence they make up most of their sales.

psv · 8 November 2012, 09:18 AM

A Submariner with the 16610 case, matte dial and domed crystal like on the DSSD - without cyclops por favor - and the updated bracelet. Sign me up please. I'm done with the SubC, GMTC etc - I cannot take the maxi-case anymore.

An unblinged Daytona without PLC would be much welcome as well.

Welshwatchman · 8 November 2012, 09:18 AM

More boutiques, higher prices and less discounts.

Also, TT ceramic Daytona and still no Pepsi ceramic insert solution.

GIS8 · 8 November 2012, 09:31 AM

YG Rootbeer gmt

impalass · 8 November 2012, 09:35 AM

I'd love to see a Ceramic SS Daytona, but the TT Daytona is next in line.

Of course with it being the Daytona's 50th anything is possible.
