I've been saying forever that Rolex...
...should bring back some sort of triple calendar or perpetual like the ref. 8171. A sport version would be great too (in stainless), but I want one in good old fashioned yellow gold.
The crown should try harder
And have the crown plus 2 pushers only to operate the whole movement, that would be sweet. Next can we have an annual calendar day date please?
I got word from a very very big AD and very close to ROLEX
He usually never says anything but this time he said one word when I showed him the pic ...PLATINUM
Interestingly the case looks identical to the Milgauss’
And then I noticed it says ‘antimagnetic’. Nice reincarnation for the Millie 😊 Come to think of it, also the crown and hands look the Milgauss ones
Yes, I agree, most of their offerings
are simple complications, date and GMT. SS would be nice, platinum I would guess would have a quite small target audience.

I could be wrong, way wrong, but I can’t see this having broad appeal. Which is good.
Surely this is not a watch which will appeal to the maniacal Sub/Daytona/GMT buyer. And once that market is out then things begin to calm a little. Of course there would be sufficient demand among other collectors, quantity may be limited in annual produc...
We're getting somewhere here. Still, I don't see anything as retro and quirky looking as this
becoming part in today's Rolex portfolio. Always happy to be proven wrong: The odd Killy man out... Cheers Marc
I maybe againts the majority here...but I don't find it interesting in terms of design
Looks like this (which one of the most un-desirable IWCs). ...
