Next watch to be offered on Oysterflex?

Thoughts?

Perhaps a platinum GMT or SUBC? Something tells me they won't offer it with any SS models.

I don't think we'll see a SS with Oysterflex just yet.

Here's a wild Idea of mine: The next one on the list is GMT and I'm betting it will be the coke. BW2018.

SD43 would actually be a real proposition with an Oysterflex in my opinion.

The coke is interesting. Good way to differentiate from the pepsi. I have a Yachtmaster and love the oysterflex but I don't really see it on a sub or dssd as the bracelet mechanism is so unique and one of the big selling points in my opinion.

I believe divers would be the last to see an oysterflex.

im sure they can integrate the sub glidelock with an oysterflex.

I'm sure we will see more in oysterflex as time goes on but I'd like to see it just offered on the SubC and SD. I know Rolex spent a mint in development of it and I just don't see how they are seeing returns yet with such few models offered with it. That said Rolex has a marketing plan and I'm sure they have future plans.
