Quite frankly, any of their modern sports watches just in more manageable ~37mm cases, more like 4-digit Rolex.

Why?? The line is definitely a sports model. They even have a yachtmaster in titanium, it doesn’t get more sporty than that.

Any of those annual calendar moonphase watches from the past would be great.

It's sad that they have an annual calendar movement but put it only in a dual time zone watch that isn't a classic dial format.

They have a moonphase date movement but slam it into a Cellini and with the weirdest moonphase dial known.

So I agree an annual calendar moonphase...

(Friendly humor) Well, early this morning there was a serious sit-down conversation with the Internet. After much discussion..... The internet felt it could handle Rolex releasing an enamel dial perpetual calendar with the phase of moon on bracelet in Everose gold.

All good

Meteorite Daytona, put it in my hand.

Lemans White gold, put it in my hand.

37mm daytonas, put it in my hand.

Moonphase Calendar/ Triple date, put it in my hand.

If I don't end up being able to purchase it, leave the past in the past.
