Looks dark blue on my monitor. The picture has a significant amount of colour bled out of it, but what about the text at the bottom of the page? Not saying it's true but the text looks convincing.

Didn’t we see a similar release of this same book a couple years ago? I’m pretty sure we did. I just don’t remember what models were exposed and if it turned out to be true or not.

The text below the images is wildly inconsistent with regard to materials and years, very unlike Gisbert. I’d say fake

the text for 126719BLRO has no year on it, similar to the 126710LN, which suggests no year of release thus being a new one.

Its 2022....can anyone not get a hold of Gisbert and ask what's up??????

Either this is nothing or Gisbert messed up large and Rolex new release has been exposed(In a book on Amazon??? really???).....which could result in Rolex shelving for a year because thats how they roll....

or maybe Gisbert is Rolexes go to guy for the secret early release of a new release

sherlock???

More inaccurate rumor mongering. I bet this came from Marc Goldberg the dog trainer.

I'm saying fake. Looks like a monochrome photoshop as someone else said above. Looks too dark vs the other photos and there is no way titanium would launch on the LN.

The pic of the watch itself looks doctored. Too dark. I understand that's why people think it could be titanium but apart from it making zero sense to make a pilot's watch in titanium, the reference number of 126710LN denotes SS (0), so there's a big inconsistency right there.

Sure the text at the bottom looks convincing. But again, the reference number doesn't make sense if it is indeed titanium. If it's not titanium then why's it so dark? Maybe because it's doctored (grayscaled to hide the colors of the GMT hand?).

Seems like more of an error to me. The text references it’s on oyster bracelet while it’s on jubilee. Let’s not read too much into this….

The model would not be 126710LN. The zero denotes SS so if it was a real Ti it'd probably be a 126712LN or something. 1-4 for last digit is usually TT models. The 2 would be shared with SS/Platinum my best guess.

That said I doubt Rolex would do a Titanium/Steel GMT. Most logical model would be a Sea Dweller or Yacht Master 42 ND like that proto swirling around the web.

FYI - pretty much ANYTHING can be done in 2021 on PS. Sorry to burst your bubble dude. This is a shoddy example.

I just got the newly updated and expanded edition of the book. It doesn't even cover the 2021 releases never mind next years. Useless book with poor print quality and lacking in detail.

But it would definitely make sense for Rolex to bring back the LN version.
But it has the colored "GMT" text (assuming it's green; don't think that ever came in blue). My first thought was that it was actually a 116710 with a Jubilee, but it has the coronet at 6:00, which I think only showed up with the 126710.

I would love an LN with 70 hour power reserve. But if a new one came out I'm sure the price would shoot up to like the ~$16-17k area.

Not sure what "The Titan" is in reference too. Maybe another one of those forced nicknames if I had to guess.

If Rolex does make a LN again, they will be backtracking and in conflict with their prior comments saying all future GMT Masters will be bi-color bezel. For what it's worth if it ever did come back (the LN), it wouldn't be exclusive to Jubilee. All SS GMT Masters now have the option to take either Oyster or Jubilee and offer stand-alone bracelet from my understanding.
