If we can put a man on the moon we should be able to do a two-color ceramic bezel. As for me, I already have my 16710 Pepsi, that's the only one I wanted or will ever want. it has a proper red 24 hour hand, too - I understand the reason for the green hand and lettering on the GMTIIc, but I think it's out of place on an all-black watch.

It needs a red GMT hand though.

And, that would not be a very durable construction method. It would look half-assed to boot. The only folks pining for a Pepsi are the folks on these boards. Mass consumers / target buyers for new models want bling, diamonds and precious metals. |

Furthermore, I love the original Pepsi, but if you take a hard look at the way the numbers are blasted in the ceramic insert, you will understand how the same approach would not work on a bi-color ceramic version. |

Ceramic Pepsi will need a red or possibly blue 24hr hand to replace the green?

I doubt we would see a ceramic explorer 2. I do expect a lot from the Daytona.

[QUOTE=aksing;3831253]I remember reading they cant do ceramic in two colours so the Pepsi ceramic is not possible - anyone confirm or deny? Otherwise bring it on!!!!
I was told Rolex haven't come up with a way to bond the two ceramic halves together. |

My money is on an updated Daytona. As for Rubber straps I remember seeing a thread that Rolex patented a rubber strap. Who knows

More Daytona models with Cerachrom bezels. Maybe some green accents to denote 50 years (a regular production model, but the hype-engine will still go into overdrive)
Would like to see a completely new Daytona, but doubt this will happen for some time (but who knows) More DJ/DJ II dials. Perhaps a Jubilee bracelet option for the DJ II

Light a candle for the Pepsi and Coke. That style has passed. It's only forum fools like us who pine for them.
Maybe a ceramic 40mm Daytona in SS. If Daytonas were moving to 42mm the new ceramic/ gold models would have been bumped in size. Rolex is too predictable. |

40mm would be disastrous on a new SS Daytona. The current ones just look and feel too small, particuarly in comparison to the rest of the current range.
