GMT-Master ll Annual Calendar for 70th anniversary?
Has anyone else heard some chit chat about the possibility of Rolex upping their game by combining complications in the future, possibly starting with the GMT?

If this happens it could be the dawn of a new era in Rolex horological possibilities.

I'll start buying diamond jewelry at the local ADs to secure my place in line!

Not on the Daytona they don't.

I'd prefer less busy dials from Rolex, not more!

Using the Sky-Dweller style it would be almost seamless.

Why have a Daytona with a date? That’s nonsense.
Buy the Tudor.

I haven't heard that but I'll be on the edge of my seat to see this thing. Wonder if it will account for leap years, too?

Isn’t the Sky-dweller already an annual-calendar watch?

Haven’t heard that but would be interesting.

Even though I know it’s wrong, sometimes I want a date on my Daytona. Ha.

Agree!! I’d be satisfied with relaunching the original 2007 release, 116710LN but with a jubilee bracelet or a rubber oyster flex. Change the green GMT hand to red. Boom done!!!

Would be neat, albeit I think the annual calendar category belongs to the Sky Dweller.

Give us a 39mm, slimmer lug profile GMT!
