Yeah that’s the rumour. Like the original but ceramic.

New Milgauss for sure. Rolex Instagram feeds has been nothing but shots of the old and current Milgauss.

If it does happen expect the fan bois to be foaming at the mouth with the prospect of making a few quick £££k.

Ah well that's funny you guys have said that as I have a very good friend that is high up in Aurum group (and I don't mean a store manager) and he said something about it? But saying that it was just his thoughts,as we all know how closely Rolex play there cards close to their chest.I know this first hand as I have been to a few Rolex/Basel dinners and Brian Duffy (smashing fellow by the way) doesn't even know what they are up to!!! Lol

Yeah the current Milgauss with the Z blue or black and green was a total surprise when it was revealed.

Yep. Some minor tweaks for the Rolexisti to get orgasmic about no doubt.

The trend of ‘put a ceramic bezel on it’ appears to continue. If they are true it makes the Explorer 2 look a shambles.

I am not saying you are wrong, but why?

because making fewer movements streamlines supply/production and along with another price rise more profit for them

Tudor Submariner in Blue.... probably another GMT in "coke" or "batman" colours from Tudor as well.

I think this year will be a big year for Tudor as they continue to launch it to fit into the space Rolex used to fit into.

The starvation of the SS models has created the frenzy of people willing to spend 3-4-5K on a sports watch and a bunch of colourful / sporty models from Tudor will fill that gap nicely.

Interested to see what Tudor do with the smaller BB58 size case as I have sub-7 inch wrists.

Also keen to see what the anniversary Moonwatch is like but considering the past ones I prefer the normal ones anyway

Clever; especially if they can get a date complication nailed that works... hehe

Bound to be a "new" stainless Sub or two with a daft coloured bezel insert, and retro looking dial. Keep the rich up to date with an overpriced base model watch, and make the waiting list longer to keep them "exclusive"!

Looking at Tudors current range and also some of its older watches (I am biased as I have 3 tudor’s) I wonder if they will try again on the chronograph front. They released the original way before Rolex but I for one don’t like their Chrono attempts over recent years. So something akin to the old panda big block which is a good value watch when compared to the Daytona..? ADs are giving discounts on the current chronos which might indicate they are clearing the stock...?
