I really like the RG Sub with blue dial idea, and would also entertain picking up the RG DD blue dial as well. Finger crossed that these 2 releases are true.

We go through this every year. Only time in recent memory I can recall a sneak peak being accurate is when another forum member looked up the user guides on Rolex’s site the day before the Sept 2020 release, and changed the reference number from 116610 to 126610 in the URL, etc. He was able to narrow down all the references that had updates.

All these other screenshots from previous years have always turned out to be a fugazi. I wouldn’t hold much weight on these.

Its funny actually, I was at my AD yesterday wearing my YG Sub, and I mentioned that it would be a dream if the Rolex made a Sub in RG

My thought exactly. Those were leaks from a webpage as well and turned out to be the biggest hoax.

Might the release of these new potential models also mean a second price increase for the entire line? How usual is it that Rolex increases their prices twice within a number of months?

Great point and that picture looked better than these. Oh well time will tell.

RG Sub would be nice. Maybe Rolex needs to come out with more PM models to help there bottom line since sales as so bad

Am I the only one not excited by this? Well, the RG Day-Date is nice but there's ten other models I'd get before it.

Also, those Redit photos, the last two, were ripped from Hodinkee...

The GMT LN probably wouldn't have a green 24hr hand if it returned, the Hulk looks like it has a sunburst dial (that's a way different green from the bezel) and, maybe it's just the light, but the background for the day of the week and date look to be different colors on the RG DD.

Yeah I think the earliest we've ever had a sneak peak was a day or two before the release

When was the last time Rolex released new steel models for the Daytona, Sub, and GMT all in the same year?

It would be odd if they re-released the LV with green dial and the steel bezel daytona though.

In March? While W&W is in April? That is a bit weird! Wouldn’t say impossible, but unlikely. And that makes rest of claims illegitimate. 41 mm Sub? Close to SD 43 mm? And just two years after nee Sub was introduced? Chance info is real is slim!

Think logically on “new hulk” guys…..

It would share the ref number of the new cermit/Starbucks … where would that go? Surely a hulk and cermit/Starbucks can’t share the same reference number?

They might bring it back in precious metal, but I don’t see it coming back in steel.

Yes I'd say if the Hulk is coming back it may be in white gold or platinum. Steel Hulk prices will go through the roof it that happens.

I’ll remind everyone that 12 months ago people were absolutely convinced the Explorer 2 would have a ceramic bezel. It was basically guaranteed because of people “in the know”. Truth is, nobody knows. These are guesses and nothing more

In fairness, they aren’t Paul Thorpe photos, they were posted by a Reddit user.

What you talking about - new sub is already 41mm

What relevance does the 43mm SD have in all this?

Maybe they've found that tin of green paint they've been looking for since the 12 series launched?

I hope they find the blue tin soon as well.
