I have to admit...
while I acknowledge the rarity and cult status of the 'Killy', I have never understood the appeal of the watch itself. The Rolex Oyster case and dial design just does not work with the triple calendar-chronograph IMHO. I've examined and tried one specimen and it just didn't speak to me. Thank goodness for that too since this now costs more than a Patek perpetual!

Yes
but if they decide to re-issue the watch, who knows what it will look like ? Something close to the original would be fantastic !
jck and gmt in pepsi
i would love a new model jck but i also want a pepsi gmt. have held off on one simply because i want something different but similar to the vintage look. we always want what we can not have perhaps, imo
PVD Daytona would probably be so sought after
that it would immediately go triple list. I wonder if Rolex would be 'so bold.' The new SD makes strategic sense to me. They are leading up to the new Sub, one model at a time--creating momentum and hype, and probably also checking reactions.
this raises an interesting question
I wonder whether a PVD model would reduce some of the excessive demand for, and thus the price of, the regular SS version.
I was actually thinking of demand/prices on the secondary market,
which is where most SS Daytonas are bought and sold. True, discontinuing the SS Daytona would somewhat limit supply, in the sense that the company would turn off the paltry stream of them arriving at ADs from year to year. But at the same time, the demand...
