The Rolex jubilee teaser is without any doubt a new gmt
That Jubilee bracelet appears to have a safety-lock clasp, which would suggest that it is intended for a professional model.
Main agents are otherwise being told not to expect anything earth-shattering from Rolex this year.

They would probably be happy just getting a SS watch full stop :-)Originally Posted by Haywood_Milton
P.S. I wonder how many calls AD's will be getting that day/week?
P.P.S. I wonder how many they've already had?
Is that the reason why we don't see the safety lock on normal date justs?

New gmt on jubilee - coke perhaps?
Or even the pepsi on jubilee - would get round the difference with the white gold.

The new omega may be a speedmaster racing with red colouring if rumours are correct elsewhere.

Never wanted a BLNR but a Coke/jubilee? Woohoo!
I love my speedmaster racing, would like too see a new version.
Red side of the moon?
Mars, surely.
Mars is my bet.
Rolex: WG GMT Coke (or even a Pepsi) on a jubilee.
(The Jubilee will be the 'big thing' if it's just a reincarnated Pepsi).

It's HAL. A Space Odyssey 50 years Limited Edition. :addcorrectsmiley:
"I'm sorry Dave, I'm afraid I can't do that"
Crikey, that could be it! Only half joking....
Well the mars rover must have been near a Speedie at some point so makes sense.
Was there not a tie in with an old 70’s speedmaster (one without lugs) and Mars?
How about a Mars Attacks Speedmaster?
Wonder what the wait time on a jubilee gmt would be..... 5 years?
Get your local ADs number programmed into your speed-dial facility ;)
I could wait a lifetime, a jubilee GMT is not up my street, I'm surprised they are popular...shows what I know!
Haha nothing to do with what you know! I started hating pepsi bezel.. maybe i'm just swept up in the hype!
Could be quite cool on a jubilee.
However I think it will be sth new. Maybe steel GMT Black and Green on jubilee?

Please let it be something more interesting than a jubilee bracelet
This, I'm hoping. I'll take either soda though.

Say on Wednesday, Rolex do announce a new stainless steel COKE GMT with a jubilee bracelet. Guessing that demand would be massive. They seem to be doing a great job of whetting the buying population's appetite.
What's the best way to get as high up on the waiting list at the local AD - email, phone call or walk-in? - i was planning on popping in on Wednesday lunchtime for that human touch, but am afraid i'll be way down the list by that point....
Any views?
Given that Coke GMT lists started at least last year, then you may be a little late already!
I beat you this time round j.
No chance. I started the list for the Coke!I beat you this time round j.
Omega is saying 'they are back'. I wonder what 'they' could be?

Buy a solid gold ladies watch at full retail.

Sad to see a fairly ‘unisex’ (masculine, if you ask me) 37mm watch labelled a ladies’ watch. Don’t see why they need to.
Looks really good, but I don’t like dates done by sub-dials; I don’t find them very legible.
Sadly it usually involves buying stuff from them!!
Just spotted an update from rolex passion whom are convinced a coke gmt on jubilee is on the way

If they’re right, (and my caveat being that it’s SS) it’s gonna be as almost-impossible to source at list as a Daytona!!
Personally I think that in steel it would also kill off the BLNR though so my money’s still on a WG Coke on Jubilee..... (hence they’ve reportedly killed off the BLRO).
The WG BLRO was always a very poor seller for Rolex so I would be very surprised if they introduced a WG Coke on Jubilee which would perhaps be another slow seller.
My money is on an SS Coke GMT with Jubilee Bracelet.
To be fair mate I do see your point and you could well be right but if it’s SS that’d be the BLNR and the LN on Oyster, and the Coke on Jubilee with only YG PM GMT variants??
Also though how do we know that the BLRO was a slow seller??
....I’ve read the same thing many a time on TRF but do we know how many were sold compared to the Smurf, and (I think?) that’s been around longer??
I still think it makes more ‘collection sense’ to replace the BLRO with something rather than kill off any WG GMT variant altogether but we’ll soon find out either way!!

I would bet on a coke SS GMT2 with a jubilee bracelet. Will be in Belfast tomorrow so will enquire if they have a list?
As to killing off the BLNR, they may discontinue that at the same time, which could see a SDc effect take place.
Suppose we will all know in a couple of days time.

THANK YOU! One of my pet peeves is hearing “product x was a slow seller” with no real evidence- we don’t know how many watches Rolex aims to sell of each model and it’s likely they have a different supply strategy for each model/ country too! They don’t just send the same number of all models to all shops- far far fewer Daytona’s, for instance. Maybe they intended for all shop windows in the uk to have a blro and sold many more than they hoped overall - nobody knows!
Anyway, I’d go along with the GMT being upgraded with a jubilee, although I am not sure whether that includes a coke model or simply a bracelet option. Being an owner of the 5 digit GMT means I wouldn’t be in the market anyway- I prefer the older models to the ceramic ones, personally. I also hope the submariner will get an upgrade with the new movement and hopefully the oysterflex as a cheaper option.
From what I've read, it's the 145.012-67 Ultraman.
I keep reading that "they" are waves. i.e. seamaster wave dial. The laser teasers could be laser engraving of waves on to the ceramic dials, supposedly.
If the laser engraving of waves is all Omega is bringing to Basel this week, would appear to be a pretty weak year for Omega but maybe they will surprise everyone.
If they come out with something close to the mocked-up Migauss in that report i'll be very happy indeed.
Yep, loving the red accent Milgauss!
When you look long into an abyss, the abyss looks long into you.........
My 2p bet is as follows:
Rolex GMT in steel with Coke bezel on Jubilee bracelet on the basis that they have already done (not very well IMHO) the red and blue in 18ct.
Tudor Black Bay with Pepsi bezel as I don't think the steel bezel models have been as popular as the coloured bezels and they already do the Blue and Burgundy colours on the first versions.
Of course I'll be wrong..........
Quite interesting looking at that new Jubilee bracelet.
For me I just don't quite see the appeal of that design on a Rolex Professional watch just yet. I know the Jubilee seems popular with watch enthusiasts but whilst it is, of course, a classic the Oyster bracelet just looks more in keeping with a Sports biased watch design. IF they show that this week at Basel I hope there is at least an option for an Oyster bracelet but suspect not.....
I see a Jubilee bracelet and just see an old persons watch, albeit classy/classic etc.
