A bit... underwhelming.

Solo118 · 8 March 2012, 02:28 AM

I was really hoping for a dome crystal on the ND Sub, it does look fantastic though.

The blue YM is just stunning.

I am just happy they did not butcher the SS & TT Daytona with a ceramic bezel. Lets just say that rainbow bezel is not for everyone, but neither was the leopard crap. There will be a select few sold, so it shouldnt be a big deal.

thanks for the photos, appreciate it!

looks cleaner without the date

but both would work for me

agreed on the no-date....

not a YM, but, i think it would be great as a GMTIIc (date or no date)....just swap the bezel for GMTIIc, keep the red hand and text, and keep the brushed bracelet....= a winner!

Any ideas on pricing of any of these?

Im just glad they didnt release anymore strange variations of the Daytona...

topgear · 8 March 2012, 03:39 AM

Save for the updated ND Submariner, I dislike the rest.

The new Sky-Dweller looks fantastic. Any idea what the official european prices of these are?

I am sorry but I am shocked at the haters on here. The SkyDweller not only looks amazing but the functions it has are so unique that I would think this forum would be going nuts to own one already.
Congrats to Rolex for creating another gem of a product!

MortgageGuy · 8 March 2012, 05:28 AM

Very nice, thank you for placing this all in one place... Awesome post

ally · 8 March 2012, 05:33 AM

Thanks Puffy

Great work enjoyed following all the action today.

Love the Sub the addition of SEL & Clasp sound great the Ceramic looks cool Is the dial a Maxi dial ?

Thanks for efforts today

GolfPunk · 8 March 2012, 06:11 AM

These 'blingy' jewelled and leopard watches, to me suggest that Rolex are assuming a fair proportion of it's market are wealthy 'Chavs' (UK term, meaning people with no class at all). Where are the ceramic Daytonas on bracelets or two tone etc??

tkerrmd · 8 March 2012, 06:18 AM

great post, thanks

kcmo · 8 March 2012, 06:34 AM

Hmmmm, nothing strikes my fancy.....that Sky Dweller is

Like the Sub though!

San Francisco · 8 March 2012, 07:01 AM

The blue Yachtmaster is stunning. I sort of like the flat bezel on the Date Just II as well. Otherwise, not particularly enthused about any of the new watches.

timuS · 8 March 2012, 07:10 AM

Thanks for the pix Puffy!

Guys any idea if the sky dweller caliber 9001 has a ball bearing rotor like the 4130 or a pivot rotor like 3135?

DJJon · 8 March 2012, 08:10 AM

Many thanks for the rapid post. I am headed to an AD now and will see if they even have these catalog pages.

You are 'THE MAN' - Thank you !

never2late · 8 March 2012, 08:32 AM

I'm kinda' likin' the Skydweller. I couldn't stand it when I first saw it this morning, but now . . . I 'm not so sure.

Fresh_1 · 8 March 2012, 08:47 AM

Thanks for thread, keeping in what seems to be an emotional day orderly for people who want to view the new releases.

Boothroyd · 8 March 2012, 08:49 AM

The ND Sub is the watch I have been waiting for. I know I am in the small minority who don't like the cyclops, don't need a date, and prefer brushed steel bands. Love the update!

gt0279a · 8 March 2012, 08:54 AM

Blue Yachtmaster is very nice.

I guess it was inevitable with the demise of the oyster cased submariners.

Rollie2011 · 8 March 2012, 09:08 AM

Blue YM... really tempting
