My initial reactions...

Today's questionable green palm fronds will soon be tomorrow's discontinued darling.

I like the fluted dial design on the DJ36, especially the blue one. A fluted dial, fluted bezel, jubilee bracelet DJ36 should come with sunglasses.

I'm disappointed that the DJ41 still has the seconds values at the five minute markers. I prefer the cleaner outer track design on the OP36.

The meteorite Daytona looks stunning!!

The TT Explorer 36 does looks sharp. If the SD can be in TT, so can the Explorer. As Tim Mosso wondered in his recent webcast, is Rolex releasing a new TT model to increase interest in existing TT models and thus take some pressure off the steel models?

Why no hint of green on the 50th anniversary Explorer? It's not like Rolex. Are they holding out for a closing ceremony surprise?

Not that I’m particularly interested but I find the 2021 Rolex novelties pretty boring.

Ok, some nice new meteorite dials for the Daytona but otherwise. New Explorer I and II? I don’t get it. Best, V.

Watching some YouTube dealers (you probably know which ones) recently and they've been paying strong prices and stocking up on the YG Green Dial Daytona and the Platinum Daytonas on the basis that Rolex had supposedly circulated a price list to AD's which...

Very boring. But good news for my wallet as I’m already over committed in 2021😜

The SD??? How to ruin a nice watch. I know put a jubilee bracket on it. What on earth. M.

When was the last time Rolex really shocked the world with something? But perhaps that's the allure of Rolex being such a stable stalwart and steward of the industry. I think over the last 10 years, there have been only a handful of more major modificatio...

On the GMT Meteorite - I am still on the wait list for that model - but I thought it came after the first WG Pepsi GMT so didn't include that one as a dial change. Albeit an incredible dial change Peter

Definitely not a good day for all these greedy for money grey dealers that had hoped for the discontinuation of some popular Daytona models...and a ceramic Explorer II.
