Wishes for Baselworld 2011......New Explorer II and better clasp on non date Sub

Atomant · 3 February 2011, 12:08 AM

Yeap an EXP II would be nice

GEO_79 · 3 February 2011, 12:25 AM

Expy ii orange handdddddddddd

Aventura · 3 February 2011, 12:42 AM

I guess something will happen to the 14060M. I do not think they being left to do but I heard that noo has a great volume of sales. But it is simply an opinion that I read.
The 14060M is a beautiful watch.

bemik · 3 February 2011, 02:38 AM

I guess we'll find out soon enough!

TheVTCGuy · 3 February 2011, 03:30 AM

Predictions?

I predict Jocke will be there...

SUPERDOC · 3 February 2011, 05:08 AM

I think the Exp II is a given, but the fact that they had it ready to go last year and held off may mean that they have little else to offer this year...

Maybe a Jubillee bracelet for the DJII and some new dials, but I think that
this is going to be a quiet year for Rolex at Basel...

My prediction - Omega will be the one to watch with a few lines of liquid metal SMP and PO ready to roll out...

I also predict that the new Exp II will be the hottest Rolex watch since GMTc came out....the leaked images were beautiful, and it is readily available in SS - no 3 year wait ...

a long shot prediction - something Daytona-esque - but I'm thinking more of a platinum offering or special dial - can't see a date function or a new case...

TheVTCGuy · 3 February 2011, 05:32 AM

How about a WG GMT? They make a WG Sub right? It's the same case (isn't it?) So why not a WG GMT???

I think it would be a fantastic watch!

They do make a few WG GMTs - only thing is they come with jewelled bezels etc.

Are you sure you work at Sony? I believe you are a proffessional soothsayer.

How did you know.

mfer · 3 February 2011, 06:31 AM

About the only thing that would get me excited is the "Shark" and that isn't going to happen.

I think Rolex could do this if they wanted and not hurt the value of the all blue dialed WG Smurf.

If I could pick anything I'd love to see from Rolex........bring back a sweet cushion case model in a slim, med/large case.

Fingers crossed, but I'm betting no new Rolex for me.

Traveler · 3 February 2011, 06:32 AM

I like that green and black version of the ceramic GMT II

You're right Blue, but IMHO, those things are ... well, let's just say they're not for me. But I think a "UN-Blinged" WG GMT, like the Sub, would be great!

Rolex!!!!! Are you listening!?!?!?!?!?

renfield33 · 3 February 2011, 08:56 AM

i predict the yachtmaster III. stainless steel only. chronograph with a date along with a 10 minute countdown timer with an orange hand.

YES! I see it now! The new...

Paulie 50 · 3 February 2011, 09:39 AM

Once upon a time you could spot a Rolex across a crowded room ( usually a Datejust ) they were wanted by everyone for over fifty years, why ???? because they didn't change, everybody dreamt of owning one, they were simply, " ICONIC "
Then somebody at HQ had a brainwave, " lets change the look, so that they look like any other watch " Lets hope that those principles no longer apply. Why change a winning formula. My wish would be for Rolex to return to being the leaders, instead of the led, to have other brands copying us, instead of the opposite, and lastly, not to fix, what is'nt broken.

Now those pics are interesting! Can't wait for Basel now!

Tippix · 15 February 2011, 05:43 AM

I don't think that it is a fake, but look at 2 o'clock dot on the sub no date! There is missing!
How can that happen?

watchdoc · 15 February 2011, 07:40 AM

The AD I deal with says he has been sworn to secrecy. He says there will be quite a few new models.

RRGHOST1 · 15 February 2011, 10:03 AM

My prediction is they will bring out a DingyMaster,a ShallowSea,and possibly a Nightoner.

NightOwl · 15 February 2011, 11:11 AM

Not really a prediction, but I am hoping for something along the lines of a 38mm Air King, OP, or OP Date. Since they already have a 39mm case design for the Explorer, I'm sure if they were to upsize the OP, they would utilize that size instead, but somehow 38mm appeals to me more.
