It looks like a new ceramic bezel coke GMT has been cooking for a while.
According to IG @niccoloy, they filed for patent is 2022 and its now public info.

I hope it’s this year! This will fuel more speculation on the Pepsi being discontinued as well, I imagine.

travisb · 10 February 2024, 10:58 PM

If it does happen this year we all know the frenzy that will follow. Just a couple months and we'll see.
As stated above, would be interesting to see if all the current GMTs would remain or just continue to expand the line.

I heard they cannot decide what MK to call it if it ever goes into production,now if the inserts were like the old aluminium ones and easily to DIY change that would be a big bonus.

codecow · 11 February 2024, 12:28 AM

Hmm… I need to figure out how to fit this into my collection. I have 4 GMTs now, so I hope they do something crazy with it like PM with a cool dial as the initial release.

1William · 11 February 2024, 12:29 AM

I would like to see it.

Look fwd to the Coke. Does that mean the Rootbeer needs to be renamed to Rum...

Dude. I just told myself I was done buying more Rolex… hopefully it’s white gold/platinum that way I can convince myself I can’t afford it

jaychief · 11 February 2024, 06:31 AM

Intresting.........

Hodog16 · 11 February 2024, 06:35 AM

Been wanting a Coke GMT for years. Would be an instant must have no matter the metal.

alphadweller · 11 February 2024, 06:37 AM

I only hope they get the red pigment right, unlike the other soda drink.

David5807 · 11 February 2024, 07:35 AM

This would be super cool if it's real.

rockysw · 11 February 2024, 09:51 AM

do they really need a patent for every color combination? Or is this some new tech they have designed?

Hi Steve, can you PM me. I tried to PM you with a question twice, but it seems like they're not getting through. Thanks

favx · 11 February 2024, 10:55 AM

It's about time.

GVAZQUEZ · 11 February 2024, 11:12 AM

I’m actually looking forward to this. Rolex has definitely brought out a lot of GMT combinations over the last 2 yrs. W&W will be interesting.

If this is true, this will be an insanely difficult to get piece. White Daytona level

KatGirl · 11 February 2024, 12:16 PM

I knew I read it somewhere very recently. Thanks. Now I know I didn’t dream it.

Happy that some are happy but I personally find the BLNR the best color combo. Most practical color combo considering its function.

Y’all won’t have me competing for a Coke allocation.

I’d also bet something from the current GMT color-way will be retired if a Coke is released. The GMT line already feels a bit cluttered to me.

RTG · 11 February 2024, 01:09 PM

Have read coke rumors on TRF since years before I joined. Wouldn’t hold my breath.

Pepsi tastes like crap IMO, and that’s just one reason I prefer coke. Back when the SS BLRO was released, this forum wanted pepsi over coke by eight to one. I know, because I was one of the one’s. Not sure a new coke release would be more popular than the SS BLRO… I get chasing what’s new, just don’t see it having the legs of the BLRO. And really, how many GMT options does Rolex want to offer? They have a bunch already. My guess is coke headlines the next gen GMT and that it’s a few years out.

My thoughts exactly.

Love to see how this combo plays out.

mobster600 · 11 February 2024, 01:46 PM

If Rolex releases the Coke, they'd have nothing left to tempt us with. We all keep begging for re-masters of old classics, but what happens when they give them all to us? Maybe some stella dial Daytona's? Idk it needs to fit the time too. They just gave us a slew of colorful dial OP's. The coke could be the only predictable model left to show face. What do you guys think?

Agree with you on the BLNR. Best GMT color combo in my opinion.
