15

15 is the number of the total Rolex current options with a ceramic bezel and in oystersteel. I was playing around with the Rolex configuration on their website to ensure I am not forgetting anything else as I wait for the SS Daytona. The options are as follows:

-Sub no date
-Sub date LN
-Sub date LV
-Daytona Black dial
-Daytona White dial
-Deepsea (x2)
-Sea-Dweller
-Yacht-master II
-GMT BLNR (x2)
-GMT BLRO (x2)
-GMT VTNR (x2)

Out of all of these, the only ones I am seriously interested in are (in this order):

-Daytona Black dial
-Daytona White dial
-Sub no date

I have the BLNR on jubilee and SubLV. Having the SubLV, I am in no rush to add the 124060 back, but after the Daytona it is really the only other Rolex I am realistically interested in currently. It isn’t even 15, it is 6 different models with different color and bracelet combinations.

The moral of the story, I really hope Rolex adds more ceramic bezel + oystersteel models and/or options. Does anyone else agree? No wonder they are so hard to get!

It’s only watches with ceramic bezels for me at this point … with one exception that I’m patiently waiting for.

I like the colored ones so I'm good. More bi color GMT would set me back in motion or a Sub with a new color.

I'm really starting to think VTNR is a one off. Maybe a Coke option will happen this year to replace it, either as a destro or regular.

But, a lefty no date Sub would be something, especially in blue.

Now, if the YM II gets an attractive midsize update in blue that would appeal greatly.

I like the YM II. The TT is actually RG which I never noticed before, it is beautiful, but a little too big for me. I am hoping they come out with a smaller YM III redesign option. A blue lefty sub would break the internet, so would the Coke. I am still thinking the 4th option is the BLRO on oyster, but I need to see what comes out this year.

Destro blue sub=must buy.

Destro or regular Coke=must buy.

Destro VTNR discontinued=must try to breathe.

BLRO, don't know how anyone could not want it, at some point at least.

I have for years tried to really like it. It is just red has never been a color i have gone for before. Green I finally came around to, but have that with the SubLV. Black and blue are my favorite watch colors. Honestly am very pumped for this years releases.

Wait, this means on three different watches you are willing to look at your phone for the date
