I guys, I'am new member here and I'am from France.

The situation in France an Europe is the same: no watchs around, a tought prices on the grey market.

I got a Hulk and a batgirl.

My reflexion before that rumor was: as rolex did with the BLNR: an up grade,they'll probably do the same with the Hulk, in a way to countain the price on the grey market.

We will see, but it doesn't look silly in my opinion.

I think the GMT is the last squared case, it needs to be updated first ...

Everyone has seen the full gold hulk mock ups, it’s called photoshop! Paul Thorpe is just using clickbait for his monetized YouTube channel. Only Rolex knows what they have up their sleeves..

Agreed, what would the reference be?

Watches and Wonders starts March 30. And it’ll be assumed that Rolex will release the first or second day of event.

See, here's the thing. For most of us, well let's say "mature" individuals (lol), we were brought up in a time where if you shot your mouth off (especially in public to a large audience) and you were proven wrong, your reputation was one of being a liar, never to be taken seriously again.

There's a new game in town these days, though. It's called YouTube.

May be the green Sub for WG not SS.

RG Day-Date blue dial to replace discontinued olive dial.

I would love to see GMT coke.

Absolutely, last year's wrong predictions have been forgotten already. Nobody saw the 36mm explorer coming, or the two tone and everyone was adament the Exp 2 would be ceramic for the 50th anniversary.

I'm pretty sure a coke GMT was predicted last year.

That RG Sub would be great. I think we’re more likely to get something really crappy like a TT Explorer 2.

sadly i can say this is FAKE.... including the RG submariner with blue dial. Look at the bottom where it describes the model. the word "18 KT" is separateed where the KT portion is on the next line. rolex would never do that. just doesnt read right. look at all other pages and its always next to the 18. that tells me someone inserted the word "submariner" on their recreated page, and it moved the KT to the next line and they didnt notice. too bad too sad. these are all fake. the fact that the hulk is back (with a mismatched dial and bezel) WHILE the cermit is still new and an old style daytona is illogical, not only in a rolex thinking sense, but also in general logic. Also, RG sub in blue AND a YG sub in blue ouit during the same time? THis photoshopper doesnt know the brand well enough. Couldve done a much better job making better decisions to make this more believable if say there was a rendering of the all black GMT, or a white gold Coke or YG hulk BUT thats already been done.

FYI i am referring to the original leaked images on reddit. here is a close up of the RG submariner https://preview.redd.it/c5vcyz5p2cb8...=webp&f01844c9

Some cool pieces, all of which will definitely be the same story of hard to get, and 2, 3, 4 times the price on the grey. If I'm honest, if those were the new releases, would anyone feel that it's kind of disappointing? Basically nothing new, as they are all previously released parts, combinations and styles that could really be built right now as a custom watch if one wanted to. The only difference would be that the new release(s) would be a factory built watch. The Everose Gold Sub is new, but a full Everose Gold sports model is not. I'm not knocking any of these, but I think I would get way more excited about something totally brand new like a ceramic GMT Coke, a GMT with all blue bezel and dial, etc.

If the Hulk pictured is coming back, you can pretty much bet on the fact it will be precious metal. I cannot imagine why they would release another stainless version of the LV.

The hulk will make a comeback but in precious metal I think.
Obviously nobody knows for sure until Rolex announces it.

Fake news.
But would be very glad to see a new full SS Daytona.
Not a great fan of current ceramic bezels

If they do (big IF) I think they'll keep both so as to not turn the Cermit into a new hype piece.

The only reason I can imagine them doing it is, as with the BLNR on Oyster, to strike a blow against the grey market hype machine. No other motivation makes sense. They certainly don't need more sales given that they can't fulfil the requests they have.

Exactly, very aptly put! Best post in this thread so far! Nobody outside of Rolex knows what Rolex are going to do, and it's just typical YouTube waste of time click-baiting, imo.

I was going to say exactly that. That's what makes this whole thing unbelievable to me. The gold explorer shots are just copied from that Hodinkee wish list article. https://www.hodinkee.com/articles/we...ir-ideal-watch

Then folks jumped on Youtube and are now printing money off the views.

The reality is that as long as there are supply chain issues, it's easier for Rolex to make the Cermit because it's the same dial as the regular sub, right? It's a whole part they don't have to make separately.
