Will rolex debut different color dials for the new datejust 41mm?(3235 movement)

So I was really eyeing on the DJ II 18k white gold fluted bezel blue dial as my first luxury watch brand new. This is just to mark a career milestone for me & as a first luxury watch.

It's to my understanding that last year the new datejust 41mm only came out with two tone models, which one can get in either the oyster or jubilee, as well as the new 3235 movement.

Any idea if there will be new dial schemes in just stainless steel with options of 18k white gold fluted or smooth bezel? perhaps the older 41mm would be discontinued? I just dont want to rush buying the older 41mm new if there is a chance a newer one will be available. I like the idea of a newer movement and longer power reserve. maybe im dreaming haha.

Thoughts?

P.S. rumor of a rolex explorer II w/black cermaic bezel and black face sounds very appealing. I own a 1655 already but man, very tempting! Think Ill just stick to the datejust

No point asking this question as nobody knows till they get released at Basel. Wait till they reveal them and then your question will be answered.

There is a very good chance that the Datejust 41 will be released in all SS (with white gold fluted bezel) this BaselWorld. It is likely the current SS Datejust II will be discontinued.

Decent chance there will be new dial choices. I'm hoping for a dark rhodium dial with Romans. Rolex has been introducing blue and great dials recently (OP and YM). Just a hunch, but the usual suspects white, black, silver ,blue dials and likely a grey dial. Will know in 10 days

All signs point to yes (but of course no one but a handful of people at Rolex know.) I had the DJ II and when I heard they were possibly going to release the DJ 41 in stainless / wg I sold it because I much preferred the proportions of the DJ 41. I would wait until Basel next week and see what they announce. If they do indeed make that announcement you should see them hit ADs late Spring earl Fall. Good luck
