Guys,

I believe Basel is underway, or at least the media/ trade previews.

If/ when an interesting/ exciting watch is announced, can we use this thread to post pics an info, please?

I am hoping Rolex drop:

  • A 42mm Daytona with a date
  • A new SD, that isn't a DSSD
  • A new Coke/ Pepsi GMT II
I think there is a fair chance of the Daytona and GMT but not much chance of the SD... But I live in hope!

Other manufacturers welcome, of course smile

I'm hoping someone comes up with something original, rather than a rehash...

Will be interested to hear the price... I am guessing it will start with a £'6'?

Wonder what this will do to old model SD prices and which will become the more sought after piece.

The original SDs were not that loved (compared to Subs) as I understood, until the last few years.

I'm trying to 'rationalise' my collection and trading my GMT II and my SD for one of the watches in the OP is where my thinking is going at the moment...

So far for me I'm liking the WG Pepsi and the Celini range. Wasn't massively impressed by the others.

Following Watchuseek on Instagram, it's like a live feed wink

Tudor are looking good, the ranger has a strange bracelet, like it though.

I read you're right, but it ends with a 995!

Why? It's about time the Daytona had a date. Is there another major watchmaker who don't offer a Chronograph with a date?

@ Dom9 - http://www.rolex.com/watches/baselworld-2014/new-r... There you go although skimming through it I can't see where it says white gold. That's the rumor over on TRF.

Hmmm... Will they do a Coke? I'd prefer a Coke!

+1 gotta have a date!
