DJ40 and some new YM are the most obvious - DD Annual Calendar the most intriguing - TT Daytona ceramic with panda dial my clear favorite.
But, as we all know, Rolex will surprise everyone as they do every year. |

Hoping for a tudor gmt that is nice. Datejust 41 in steel with hidden clasp might sway me.

Very unlikely to happen for SS Coke GMT. IMO.

I said this in another BW thread.. I would be shocked if the DJ41 is eliminated after only a one year run..

The Coke SS GMT will join the Daytona 116500 in a hard to get Rolex with demand outstripping supplies for years!

I appreciate this thread as I don't need to keep asking my questions about what Rolex is going to do in 2017 when all of us have no idea. I certainly have no information. The only thing I can say is that I have a collection of 3 watches and the fourth watch is going to be the Sea Dweller. Based on the possibility that Rolex might do something for the 50th anniversary, I am going to hold off buying the Sea Dweller 4000 until I see what happens in March. The current Sea Dweller seems to be very available so I assume I will be able to get the Sea Dweller 4000 if I don't care for the 50th anniversary edition or Rolex does not do another Sea Dweller in March.
What would I like to see on a special edition Sea Dweller? My first choice would be the look of the Double Red and maybe a Red Date. I have my doubts about this as the Tudor Pelagos LHD (I have this watch) seems to have done some of that and I wonder if Rolex would do that to another model. The other possibility would be a different dial or a slightly larger case although I have my doubts. I do think there is a good chance Rolex will do something to the Sea Dweller as 50 years is a big anniversary and the Sea Dweller is an important watch in Rolex history. |

I want to buy a 'TT GMT Master ii' right now, but I am holding off until Basel in March... Does anyone think they will make any updates to this watch, even in a minor way?

I think almost no one has predicted a TT CokeC, we think either SS or PM or no dice, a Rootbeer version is possible or a choco dial as per the new YM and DJ41 TTs but unlikely, so this is one model you can buy now.

Rootbeer GMT with a nice sunburst dial and bi-color bezel would be cool.

A WG SeaDweller? Ha! I highly doubt it...40mm Exp II would be solid but I can't see that happening either...These predictions are entertaining. A throw back to the DRSD would be really cool but again....doubt it'll happen...

How many more posts on this same subject I predict there will be a watch show at Basel 2017.And Rolex might introduce a new watch or do what they have done for the past 20 years just do cosmetic changes to the old ones.Until Basel or just before know one really knows its that simple,all you can do is hope and pray..
