Thankfully underwhelming!
Gives me a chance to catch my breath. Can't even find a basic Sub in the AD so hopefully this year's offering gives Rolex room to improve production and distribution. Thank you.
Something tells me that the current shortage isn’t due to production and distributions issues.
Why would they have no issues producing and distributing precious metal versions of almost every-sports watch on catalogue ??
We could also say that precious metals are more expensive, sometimes colored, and so on... [nt]

I have a theory...
I think they’re starving the market so they can push the standard sub further into the luxury market segment, and the new watch guy with 5-6k who might have bought a used sub at some point is forced into Tudor. The sub, for many people, is their first ‘luxury’ watch, and I think rolex don’t want to move it out of that category. Just my opinion, not based on much other than conversations with ADs and other collectors
Errrrrr, not really my taste. But if they want to pay me for a BB GMT, then that's another story. [nt]

Haha true!
Well the good news is the Batman and Pepsi are still not available so it’s not a big deal as to what they released this time around. Also the 42mm yachtmaster in white gold. Who is the buyer for this piece? I feel the rose gold was nice but 42mm in white gold is too $$$$$
I am not in for the YM. I have THE Yacht Master, the 16622, with the platinum dial and bezel. As for the 2013 Batman, this is one I am considering, indeed. But finding one at a reasonable
Price is a tough game....
Best,
Nicolas
I sort of like the asymmetrical case but this end links and the way they attach to the strap is very odd and unattractive in photos [nt]

Mixed feelings
I do not like the Batman on jubilee. I think it is boring. The meteorite dial GMT is not bad. Need to see in the metal. It’s reminiscent of Pan AM, that’s why I like it.
New movement is fine but..
Considering I never wear the same watch more than 3 days, even 40 hours are plenty because it will still run after I wake up. Absolutely nothing to please the loyal Rolex fans. Who will want to wear a white gold Yacht Master to go swimming, unless I have a 50m yacht and entertaining someone important... Gold and Steel Sea Dweller, no thanks. My thoughts..
Well, there is one which intrigues me a bit... The Meteorite dial... But the price is... [nt]

Thanks, Nico!
Weirdly, the watch (42 YM) talks to me (on pictures).
My two problems: Too big a case for the movement and the choice of the metal.
I guess I'll wait for 42 SS version. Hopefully next year...
