    When will a new Rolex model come?

    What is the newest Rolex design? Do you think a new one will come soon or it'll be ever evolving tweaks and changes (I'll hold off saying improvements) to the existing subs, etc etc.

    Same goes for omega and co. Will they deviate from the hugely successful models they have go with something new

    Ah cool. That has very mixed opinions I notice. I'm a big fan, a yellow gold Sky Dweller would probably be my lottery winning watch. I wonder if opinion will settle down and it'll be as well loved as the rest of the current range

    They do one already. Looks brilliant. But I'm a fan of yellow gold Rolex and also adore two tone as I think it'll be massive in the not so distant future.

    Omega bring out new LE models every 47 minutes. I mean a new desing, so a new model rather than a development of an old tested model

    I'm confused. There is already a YG sky dweller that comes on a bracelet or strap.

    The new titanium Sub with skeleton dial and power reserve indicator will launch at Basel next year alongside the new 'Tribute to Steve McQueen' Daytona

    Omega launched the Globemaster (but it's under the Constellation range) not too long ago - do you mean new model line? As there are so many new Speedmasters and Seamaster every year, especially with a line in Ceramic cases being expanded.

    A new Rolex Speed-King would be good :)
    It's just a matter of time...

    'a new Rolex model' - isn't that an oxymoron?

    Personally, I'm waiting for Godot! {Probably with a quicker response time.}

    Cor, that does look tasty:

    https://monochrome-watches.com/rolex...um-submariner/

    44mm low grade titanium case
    20mm/18mm titanium Oyster bracelet with flip-lock style clasp
    Mitoya Movement (Marini says that it is “…impossible to get your hands on an ETA movement anymore!”)
    Depth rating will only be 30 meters – according to Rolex’s research, only 2% of their client base know how to swim and virtually none actually ‘dive’.

    Given that they can't satisfy the market for stainless steel sports models, they don't need to do much at all.in fact they could take the year off.

    Theres a difference between not being able to do something and not wanting to do something. Anyone who's been married more than ten years can tell you that.
    Good luck everybody. Have a good one.

    I would like to see Rolex come up with a perpetual calendar watch to take PP on.

    Rolex have their bases covered and apart from an Ano/Digi I can't see a gap for a new model/ Ceramic Explorer II would be good though :)

    Allegedly there is a Paul Newman reissue on the horizon. Circa 15k. I'm first on the list. Allegedly.

    Even if Rolex release a new model, no one will be able to get hold of one for rrp.

    I think half the fun is the hunt for the elusive sports rolex.

    Omega just keep making up Speedy Ltd. editions.

    The one for January is the 'Brown Side of the Crack"
