I agree that datejust 40 is likely since they released day-date 40. I would be tempted to buy one. I think datejust 39 would be perfect.
Also agree that we wont get a SS ceramic daytona this year. probably 2018, after two-tone ceramic daytona. |

That 116655 in YG looks tempting

A Daytona that is as legible as a sub would be a welcome addition.

Same rumors repeated elsewhere and some on this forum. I'd like to see the DJ 40. It would be my next Rolex. But if it doesn't happen this year I'll look for an Omega for my next purchase.

The only objection I have is that the YM ceramic won't come in steel but in PM only.

I would like to see the date just 40, with a jubilee

They all seem like reasonable predictions.
I think the DJ40 would be a welcomed intro and is likely just a matter of time whether it's this year or later. Rootbeer would be very cool! |

I would love to see the SS YM on a bracelet with black ceramic bezel

Everything seems possible except the yacht master as stated by Rudd Van Driver.

Something tells me this is going to be one of those incremental years for Rolex, maybe some new dial faces, but not much to report. We have seen that before. Next year might be more of a revamp to the line-up. The new CEO may have changed product direction once he got on-board.
I suspect Tudor will get some headlines, though.

They may be onto something here. I love the Daytona. The current wg Daytona on a strap has a very old clasp that needs updating.

These predictions make sense. Small incremental changes.

I love the WG Daytona but it would be too expensive for me so a SS Yachtmaster would be a very nice alternative to add to my collection.

A DJ 40 would be a huge hit. Perfect for those that feel the 36mm is too small and the DJII is disproportionate.

Nothing would please me more than a SS Yacht on strap, but don't see it happening.
One can dream though.... LOL |

I predict not much will happen, and anything that does come out, won't be groundbreaking.
