Stainless still Sub discontinued?

[Jabbo84]

I hope they do discontinue. Will cut down on repetitive posts about not being able to get one.

But what happens in case I am wait listed for the old model?
The serial number of the new would most likely be different. Does this reset my wait to zero again?

[Andad]

A new model would have a new waiting ‘list’.

But it’s not going to happen.

It's good to know the "Still" ones are discontinued and will be replaced with ones that aren't still but have movement. Who would wear a still watch anyway. The only good news is that they don't need servicing too often.

PM subs at least at my ad can currently not be ordered, presumably that alludes to the movement refresh at Basel ?

Anything could happen. Tudor discontinued the Submariner years ago, it became the Hydronaut and so on..

Rolex could do the same and replace it a new but similar watch.. who knows!!?!?

this!

As long as Rolex exists, so will the SS Sub.
Tweeks and new movement for sure at some point.

[SkyJuice]

Don't think will happen, but again its Rolex. :D

Expect the new 32xx movement with 70h of power reserve, maybe some aesthetic changes but nothing more.

Yes, this is true. Aliens are coming, and all steel are needed to make bullets, airplanes, tanks and subs (The Rolex Subs steel, I have heard is going to this last one). That's the real reason why Rolex is stopping SS watches, including Subs.

Does this information proceed?

Please post the source

[Rashid.bk]

Are you asking seriously. First, what's your source, please don't say an AD said. It's important to understand that the Datejust and Submariner watches pretty much have made Rolex the company they are.
It's akin to saying that Ford will discontinue the F150 or Mustang.

If taken literal as a reference, then yes it's quite plausible that the current reference 116610 will be discontinued only to continue as a 126610.
Just like the 16610 before it and the 16800 and the 5512 going back to the original 62xx series.

But the dive watch with the name Submariner will continue for as long as Rolex continues.

This time last year the BLNR was going to be discontinued. It was.

This time last year the BLNR wasn't going to be discontinued. It wasn't.

You gotta hand it to Rolex. They know how to have a good laugh while making tons of money.

I was told late last year by a family friend who is a jeweller/grey-dealer that he had been told, on good authority, that the Submariner line is being discontinued.

I can't ever imagine Rolex doing that !
