What more can I say but "WOW". I'm probaly going to be looking at this post for the next year. I agree with everything you said, EXCEPT, I like what Rolex did with the Deep Sea. The changes to the Deep Sea really seperate it from the Sub now.

Thanks Jocke. Another great report. Did you see anything else (non-Rolex, non-GO) that caught your eye?
What about this? I was wondering if it was the lighting or not. Is it an SS or YG? |

Excellent tour Jocke. Looks like you have confirmed that the colour of the Blue on the new Sub is as bad in person as it looks in the photos. Thanks for all the time and effort to give us a taste of Basel.

Thanks for the report and pics, Jocke. I say to hell with some of the ugly new Rollie designs, give me a couple of the Glashutte's! Those are some sweet timepieces.

Thank you all, it´s a pleasure to deliver to grateful bunch of guys that we have here.
It looks like it was worth the waiting. Sorry, no SS it´s YG. I have to adjust the camera next year. Jocke
