2022 Rumors?

What are your predictions???

I KNOW it is early but has anybody with insider info heard any rumors or have a guess when we will be getting some "leaks"?

I heard very soon, ADs must keep at least 22 watches in their cases at all times to continue as a Rolex AD. Seriously!

I could see something like this happening. If you have nothing in your beautiful cases it doesn’t make the brand look very good. It doesn’t have the effect of hard to get, it looks like they are going out of business.

Lol people will be more mad to see things they can’t buy from the cases than not seeing anything at all.

Along that line, how about NFT Rolex watches, that everyone can buy online. (Non fungible token.)
It will be just like having one, (but not), at the same price.
