Basel 2020 Predictions

1. Submariner line receives new movement....LVc and Bluesy are retired and not replaced with anything until a subsequent Basel, leaving just 126610LN, 124060, Smurf, and full YG with blue dial

2. Milguass is either retired or updated—new movement, new anti-magnetic capabilities, etc.

3. Return of the GMT LN but on jubilee...126710LN

4. Some new DJ and OP color schemes

There will be watches. Of some type and color introduced.

Reactions will range from groans on this forum that “Rolex just doesn’t listen” to unbridled speculation on certain models.

In other words same as every year.

And less lines of blurb. Instead of

Submariner
1000ft = 300m
Superlative Chronometer
Officially Certified

Just have

Submariner
1000ft = 300m

Four lines looks a right pigs ear and we all know they’re all CSOC these days.

I agree. Difficult to care because you'll never see them.

Explorer 214270 with a date & cyclops hence a new movement says my exceedingly unreliable crystal bawl.

I would bet on a sub with new movement. Real question is if Rolex will update the case / dial.

Either way, whatever happens, I'm excited!!

Forgot if the Exp have new movement but feels like it is time for an update. Pretty much same watch but just slightly smaller dial to make it more proportional. Oh, and a PT version with ice blue dial is released.

Sub is getting an update too. Hopefully something more than just a movement upgrade. Red writing?

All this talk of people on here being unable to get hot models. What are you all doing? Surely someone who is an active member of a Rolex forum has an established relationship with an AD? If so, you should be receiving these models.

Would be cool having the DD40 with annual calendar movement at least. Saw some pics where month was hidden and only shown in date window when pulling out crown. That and a good looking invisible micro-adjustment for president bracelet would be peeerfect.

I think that the Sub upgrade might include something entirely new and unexpected. Like more use of ceramic, better clasp with adjustment without taking it off or a new oyster bracelet style (more angular). Would be a little disappointed if the upgrade is nothing more than movement sort of like the GMTs even if they got the tried and tested jubilee.
