So if you had the ear of some rolex higher ups, and they wanted suggestions, what if anything would you change or improve? I myself would like the option of a blue face/bezel submariner in SS.

zak98 · 13 October 2010, 08:40 AM

43 mm for all sport watches.

Tombstone · 13 October 2010, 08:41 AM

I would have more dial options (choices) and bring back the freedom to swap, or buy new dials in the event you grow tired of your current dial. Rolex now limits what few dial swap options one has.

A PRESIDENT BRACELET in SS!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rolex dignitaries Martin Goerg, Yogesh Shah are you guys reading?

Hansch99 · 13 October 2010, 08:46 AM

A rethinking of their Prince/Cellini lines. I'd love to have a dressy, leather-banded Rolex, but those just don't do it for me.

Singslinger · 13 October 2010, 08:48 AM

A scratchproof bezel for the Daytona, maybe in black.

Thomas · 13 October 2010, 08:52 AM

I would ask them to lower their prices!

457689 · 13 October 2010, 08:57 AM

make the sec. hand on the Millgaus not a "lighting bolt"

kareemthedream33 · 13 October 2010, 09:01 AM

I would ask for more freedom to switch dials, bracelets, etc. I have no problem with them not allowing parts to gray market dealers but I cannot stand the dictatorial attitude I encounter every time I ask for something as simple as switching to a NATO strap. I basically got laughed at when I inquired about buying a glidelock clasp for my SD. "you can have one if you buy a new model that has glidelock" Thank you very much Einstein.

Make the cyclops an option.

That would even be higher on my list than an improved clasp on the Yacht Master. I imagine the improved clasp will happen fairly soon, however it probably will take longer for the scratch proof bezel to show up on the Daytona.

Route 66 · 13 October 2010, 09:31 AM

Don't flame me, but I'd like to buy an Explorer II without that extra hand!

Frogman4me · 13 October 2010, 09:36 AM

No pcl's on the GMTII C

behardt · 13 October 2010, 09:50 AM

Rose gold submariner....

mborkow · 13 October 2010, 09:54 AM

go back to red hand and red lettering on the GMT --and thus insanely drive up the value of the current green handed and lettered GMTs!

behardt · 13 October 2010, 10:16 AM

rose gold daytona on a strap (I bet it's coming in 2011)

behardt · 13 October 2010, 10:17 AM

It would be cold day in hell before Rolex start to be more reasonable priced, but it would be nice, right?

Standard 39mm for the datejust & day-date. 41mm is just too big.
