Would I buy one, for sure. Do I think it will happen, not likely. I think Rolex is happy with their current style of watches (solid and straightforward). I think they are leaving the major complications to the other high end companies and do not think they want to get any more complicated than a DD or Chrono movement.

I would greatly desire to see them bring it back and would seriously consider acquiring one.

I would love to see that as well. Some of the vintage moonphase models seem to be copied in style by JLC's line of Master Moonphases and I know those are terrific movers. Unfortunately Rolex has carved their niche and have probably already done the marketing research to see if this would sell as well as other models and the answer was no, so sad!

Yes I would be on my list.It would be the new watch to have.The daytona would take a back seat to it in my opinion.

I don't care for moonphase watches but for the brand it would be nice to see it again.

I love moonphase, it brings back the elegant antique grandfather imagery.
I would buy a Rolex with one for sure.
