I just found this post on reddit from user "rcc212" :

"I was flipping through the newly released edition of
Gisbert Brunner's The Watch Book Rolex and immediately
noticed the black GMT on the jubilee bracelet with the
126710LN reference in the annotation. Maybe a new
release in 2022?"

Looks like Titan to me...

Interesting - it would be logical they resurrected the LN

dpt.calvin · 27 December 2021, 08:01 AM

I like it.

Benzsiam · 27 December 2021, 08:04 AM

So still no Coke GMT in 2022.

Thanks for sharing.

russ86 · 27 December 2021, 08:06 AM

Looks good I like it

GMT Aviator · 27 December 2021, 08:22 AM

Hmmm, a Titanium GMT LN maybe…..interesting.

Jpccarguy · 27 December 2021, 08:35 AM

I always thought the GMT LN was under the radar... looks like a Sub date from a distance if you don't know Rolex. No longer under the radar with the jubilee! As to whether Ti... time will tell!

HogwldFLTR · 27 December 2021, 08:45 AM

Jubilees have traditionally been available for GMTs; it's only recently that they've been only available on certain models. I'd like to see the black bezel remade on the newest movement. I might even be tempted. It would be nice to see them go away from pretty watches to something designed more for those who just want a good watch.

afmars · 27 December 2021, 08:45 AM

Looks like it’s been doctored. I bet it was batman on jubilee and someone just made that section of the image grayscale… looks great though.

Has the blue GMT hand. More likely to be photoshopped.
But it would definitely make sense for Rolex to bring back the LN version.

My thoughts as well.

JayHantz · 27 December 2021, 08:59 AM

I am also going to agree to a photoshop. Still would like to see this and the Coke make a comeback.

1665fan · 27 December 2021, 09:12 AM

If it was a doctored pic the description would say blnr and not LN…..and looking at the 24hr hand it doesn’t look like the blue hand in the blnr to me…….hard to tell on an I phone but it looks more like green to me

Thanos · 27 December 2021, 09:15 AM

This picture is from a book available on Amazon. Unless Rolex is playing extreme mind games here by playing "where's waldo' type games...this appears to be nothing more than a photoshop.

As well IF Rolex was to go titanium I find it unlikely they would begin with a jubilee bracelet on GMT......

Pw92676 · 27 December 2021, 09:24 AM

I thought nobody knew about new Rolex releases until the day before when they get leaked.

I agree but I’ve been wrong before when it’s come to these types of things…

To me it looks out of proportion compared to the other watches,

Chute · 27 December 2021, 09:48 AM

I was just thinking the other day how there is no longer a Yellow Gold GMT and envisioned this watch but in yellow gold with all black on a jubilee. That would sure look nice.

SaintMickey · 27 December 2021, 09:50 AM

Consider the source...Reddit.

I'd be very disappointed in Rolex if they went to Titanium.

Please God no.

I’ve told my AD previously that if they ever release the watch you just described that I want to be first in line for it. Yellow gold jubilee would be crazy nice.

This looks to be from the new edition of this series of Rolex books that was just released on the 20th of December 2021.

The reference number 126710 does not denote titanium, it is stainless steel, and the "LN" does not look to be doctored.

Unless Gisbert is guessing, he may have let the cat out of the bag regarding a new release!!! Man I hope so!!

ltmgeller · 27 December 2021, 10:09 AM

Makes sense. I'd like to see it as well.

nollie85 · 27 December 2021, 12:49 PM

This has high probably of being true.

They were ALWAYS going to bring the regular LN back sooner or later.

malba2366 · 27 December 2021, 01:10 PM

The black bezel GMT II is something we are likely to see in the next few years. I don't see them making a titanium body/strap for just one reference. Rolex is all about having a streamlined lineup to keep their manufacturing as simple as possible.

uniqueMR · 27 December 2021, 01:15 PM

LN needs to come back :)

Blunt Instrument · 27 December 2021, 01:50 PM

Probably photoshopped. I think I heard it said that Rolex used the original green gmt hand as a nod to an anniversary model. It would make more sense to go with the red gmt hand if the all black came back. You really never know though…

1995akcoop · 27 December 2021, 01:56 PM

Definitely fake.

I would love to see Rolex make a watch in titanium but it has to be done properly, too many brands use this material and make their watches where the color looks too grey, dull and aged. Similar to bronze watches, only a niche customer base will invest in that type of look. As Rolex strives to be in the luxury business these days, they should manufacture titanium like AP does and use contrast between polished and brush surfaces to give a jewellery feeling instead.

As for this GMT LN picture, it looks exactly like the type of product I would not want to see for a titanium watch, the metal looks so dark that you would almost think that it is PVD or DLC coated. If Rolex is going to use titanium, I would rather want to see a relaunch of the DeepSea, as it would considerably reduce the weight and improve the wearing experience, or a Yachtmaster 42 with the oysterflex band and glidelock system, similar to what Sir Ben Ainslie wore but with a more premium look and feel.
