I would say out of those pieces your named, the YM2 is the only one I would consider truly original as the others pieces are just variations of existing watches...

I would also include the SkyD for it's bezel control system.
The D Blue is simply a Deepsea with a blue gradient dial so me for that is not quite original but just a change of dial. The AK could be considered original but again Rolex just changed out the dial from a Milgauss case.
As for the 126719BLRO meteorite dial, Rolex has been using meteorite in other models such as the Daytona, Day Date, DJ, etc...so adding it to the GMT is not original IMHO.

The Rolex Business model..
By: Onemorewatch : September 1st, 2020-02:48
With all these colourful options and increasing cases sizes have we seen the death of Rolex conservatism and the beginning of a gradual morph into Omega? Furthermore with the New Kermit edition is it yet another sign after the WG to SS Pepsi and PM to SS ...

For me, te ND Sub would be perfect with a domed sapphire crystal. The perfect 5512-5513 descendant!!! But then I think that what’s the BB58 is for. Then I cool down 😎 But it would be awesome! Best. René

..in the 60’s/70’s Rolex introduced plenty of colour through various stone dials primarily in the Day Date model. In the 70’s/80’s Rolex introduced all types of coloured dials in hard enamel through what we all now know as Stella dials. These variations a...

Desirable OP's
By: chippyfly : September 2nd, 2020-02:35
I am disappointed to see that the OP36 with blue dial and 3,6,9 indices has been dropped from the catalogue. Does that mean mine bought less than three years ago is now collectable and at a premium?! Mine is not for sale, but every man has his price event...
With all the colors

to me it seems the company is moving into the fashion watch business. But clearly bright colors seem to sell so that is why they are producing them. I am a white or black dial person. But they offer stuff for me also so all is good.
