Five Rangers from 1970’s Japan. Basically the original group of Japanese superheroes that the Power Rangers were modeled upon.

Part of me wants to laugh, part of me wants to......

Anyway, I think the collection is better off with these more light-hearted options. The new Subs, while very nice, are really serious.

Agreed. Rolex has a tendency or had for years of being too cold with introductions. Classy color options are always great to have. I frankly, would love to see yellow brought back to the CHNR. A TT YG GMT Master variation, w/ chocolate sunburst dial, YG bezel accents to the CHNR bezel, add yellow GMT hand and imo you have perfection. One can only hope Rolex, hope you're listening!

Very interesting! I wonder what market segment they are targeting with the bright dials?
