We never saw the Blueberry GMT that was on RPR , did we? I'm hoping the ceramic bezeled explorer 2 is a wrong prediction as well. All we can do is wait.

If I work for Rolex, my lips are sealed comes with the turf.
Why should I tell, I'm a proud employee.

That's a nice idea. But Mostly you would get the pants sued off of you if you leaked.

Except Apple's leaks are local to Silicon Valley. ;)

The first rule of working at Rolex:
Don't talk about Rolex.

It must be the best way of teasing as well. I like Rolex way, they want people to speculate what they have in the store and nobody can do it better than Rolex

99.999% of the population doesn't care what Rolex has lined up. An Apple leak will make worldwide news; a Rolex leak will barely register outside the WIS world.

I'm impressed that there weren't leaks, and that's how it should be. Honoring the terms of an NDA you sign is as much a matter of legal obligation as it is a reflection of your character.

But I can't help but wonder, what would Rolex's damages be if someone leaked? That people rushed to buy the old SK4K a little while earlier? I assume they'd argue a loss of sales leading up to Basel, but it's be really tough to prove. And I also guess if you leak, Rolex might make it hard for you to find work in the industry ever again.
