Other than the current RG and Black Ceramic version due out any day now, no one knows for certain if or when any other redesigning will take place except for Rolex.

It is possible we may see something change next year at Basel in regards to the TT model, and it is possible that we may see something to the SS model in 2013 the year of the 50th anniversary for the Daytona. But these are all guesses as no one but Rolex knows for certain.

I'm sure they will not change the daytona any time soon since they just released the rose version on strap which just hit stores here in CA. Hopefully for 2013 they will release an anniversary addition with a white dial and green sub-dials

Iconic watch. Just as many, I wish they would make it bigger and include a date. I'm not holding my breath.

i could see the lugs being made a bit thicker similar to what we have seen in the sub and soon to be release EXP 2. but the date thing would be HUGE if rolex did something like this. i would love to see a date on there. but i agree very doubtful
