If you could design your own Rolex...
What would it be?
Me?? I would take the classic Submariner (16610/14060M) case and dial, put a modern ceramic bezel on it, and fit it with the glide-lock bracelet... and just for posterity, would print "SUBMARINER" in red.... |

A modern reissue of the panda dial Daytona does sound great.

I think an updated jubilee bracelet on the GMT IIc. I would pull the trigger on that.

SS Daytona with black ceramic bezel and black ringed sub-dials like the Zenith Daytona had.
That would be sh*t-hot. I would flip my 116520 in a heartbeat for that. |

I would live to see a GMT with a white dial and a ceramic bezel. Blue red or blue white possibly.

DJ II 116334, everything is perfect but I would love to make it 44 MM in size
BLNR, keep as is but size would be 44 MM I don't have a 326938 SKY DWELLER but I want to say a few thing on it as it is my grail watch I would make it bigger so as to keep GMT ring in aligned well from 12 o'clock to 6 o'clock position and add markers in numbers like slate dial DJ II models

Something with a series of complications in a DJ style (36mm). Fairly conservative but with some extra functions.
Oh and official leather straps with depolyant buckles. |

A stainless GMT with a pepsi/coke bezel (sapphire would be fine with me) with brushed center links. I'd like it at 42mm too.
I'd also dig a modern root beer/chocolate TT GMT with RG center links. |
