I figure the Explorer 39mm will get updated hands that are a little longer and more proportionate to the rest of the watch. 50th Anniversary daytona will have some mildly interesting dial configuration, but will sport the same green crystal of the LV milgauss.

So far we have:
Jubilee on DJ2
Pepsi ceramic GMT
another high end piece along the lines of the Sky-Dweller or YM-II
Minute repeater
GMT Rootbeer
open cases
2013 is the year of the Fire-Dweller
djii tt domed bezel
djii gold
Daytona anniversary edition for sure--TT ceramic Daytona
A Submariner with the 16610 case, matte dial and domed crystal like on the DSSD - without cyclops por favor
boutiques, higher prices and less discounts.
A tourbillon
new and improved Deep Sea and the Deep Sea Special

39/40/41mm Airking ? The Explorer got bigger, the DJ/DD got bigger II models. Surely it's time for the airking to have such an option ?

42mm Sub ? No chance. They just released a new sub last year.

Any change to the ExplorerII ? Doubt it because it's pretty new and sells well.

An increased size Daytona would be a game changer. It's too small if you ask me.

I think Rolex will come out with another "high-end" piece as they try and compete with PP/AP/VC. Hope they realise they need to put in a transparent case back which is a must on a high-end watch for me.

AK797 · 20 November 2012, 08:51 PM

42mm Daytona with date would be a good idea. 40mm for a chrono is a bit dated now.

Toivonen · 20 November 2012, 11:32 PM

to me we'll have a green subdials daytona;)
or a black daytona that matches perfectly the current black daytona but with the green ceramic bezel,green daytona write and green hands;)
rolex is always mooore conservative thinking about the speculations that we all do every year ;)

BCNJ · 21 November 2012, 12:42 AM

+ a ton for Pepsi GMT with lug holes and jubilee, although YG DJII on jubilee would be nice too

jay1988 · 21 November 2012, 01:03 AM

Personally I think a YG DJ wont happen. It would have to cost less than a DD but would look very similar. The only difference would be the Day on the dial. I think DD sales would suffer if the DJ came in full precious metal options.

Jsan20 · 21 November 2012, 01:07 AM

Why not raise prices and make a new entry level watch. Something in the 4.5k range and no doubt another high end piece.

vintagewaferthin · 21 November 2012, 01:13 AM

i can only hope that rolex releases an anniversery daytona, still in 40mm but with green daytona writing and green tips on the subdial hands. it would alsop look great in ss with the standered ss bezel. a white dial would be nice with this combo.

amvd · 21 November 2012, 05:19 AM

TT GMT green dial / bezel
named TT GMT LV
nice for me

Puffy · 21 November 2012, 05:21 AM

To sort out those bloody cases and somehow make the ceramic matte!

Sent from my GT-I9100

Annan · 21 November 2012, 07:27 AM

These have all been mentioned before but here is my wish list anyway. Keep hoping the Rolex reps are monitoring this forum and if they hear from us consumers enough they might take the hint!!

1. GMT II with ceramic pepsi bezel AND....with choice of super jubilee or oyster bracelet.
2. GMT II (as is currently) with choice of brushed center links.
3. DJ II on super jubilee bracelet.

Wouldnt be hard on the matte ceramic, hublot does this, its called 'micro blasted ceramic finish' afaik

Wait. I forgot. The Mayan calendar, and thus the entire world, will come to an end. I guess there is nothing to speculate about...

I would really like it if there were in 2013 open back cases to rolexes. It would be great if sumariners for example had open back cases. Something like that would make submainers perfect, because personally like very much tobe able to observe the mechanism in action.

GerardoG · 22 November 2012, 02:17 AM

Beefed up YM-I on 2T and gold. SS/Plat already got a facelift.

GIS8 · 22 November 2012, 02:20 AM

GMT II C RootBeer would

A 39mm DJ for the ladies.

2infiniti · 10 January 2013, 03:37 PM

116515LN in RG bracelet

Cerachrome Daytona

116505 in chocolate dial (already out in the market but not on the official site.. is it considered 2013? *shrugs*)

newbieincali · 16 January 2013, 05:27 AM

Gotta agree...not a big TT guy but a modern rootbeer GMT TT would be unreal.

T.S.Eliot · 16 January 2013, 05:58 AM

1. A Daytona change/addition

2. YMII in SS with blue bezel and white dial

3. Another disappointment.

As for the whole matte dial Sub in the old case theory, I would say that ship has sailed and has a big hole in it

PatekCollector · 16 January 2013, 06:00 AM

Another Pepsi or Coke plz.

+1 on that one!! Would Love to see a modern rootbeer

JJL · 16 January 2013, 07:02 AM

Wish list or what to expect? I don't expect much, maybe some tiny modifications to TT models and what not.... but I'd like to see:

Pepsi GMT ceramic
50th anniversary double red Sea Dweller
SS Daytona with black bezel
GMTc with red accents (instead of green)

www777 · 16 January 2013, 09:11 AM

How about a SS/RG two tone sky dweller. Sign me up...
