My guess is it's a watch you won't be able to buy.

Yes exciting stuff
Definitely a new Sub 3235 possibly with normal lugs like Pepsi and new Batman. And some say they could roll out a blue Sub which is awesome since I hate gold watches and the current shade of blue is vomit, hoping for nice blue in SS.
So yeah got AD on the speed dial and text to get in line :)

I've heard a blue sub will be announced. And a new Sky Dweller. I'm not sure I care about Rolex anymore.

Doesn't matter, it will either be marked up 300% or impossible to get for the common folk like myself.

Maybe a blue Sub, but I’d bet either a black dial blue bezel......or.....a matte, maxi dial with tapered & drilled lugs (yes please!). I’ve been dreaming of the latter for years.

Boom, it’s not that hard to get a Rolex, just have to be patient and cultivate a relationship with your local AD. Nothing to it.

Pepsi has slimmer lugs?

I was under the impression that it has the same lugs as any of the ceramic GMTs...

It's an "iced-out" Sub.

(love that this one is a Sub with a GMT bezel)

Or a Sub with the platinum Daytona light blue dial :lol:

Yep slightly slimmer and so does the new Batman, the one with Jubilee.
It's more evident on as a strap.
Here's a mock up of what the new Sub might look like based on Pepsi case next to Sub. You can kinda see the difference in lugs

LAWW can slim the lugs of a current Sub-C but it’ll kill any remaining Rolex warranty.

From the image Petre shared it appears the new piece is a no-date.

New Submariner announcement Sept 1st?

Post by hoppyjr » Fri Aug 28, 2020 12:52 pm

When you watch the video on IG it appears to be a different case shape, at least from side profile. Where the lugs meet the case is different.

I would be surprised to see a Sub on Oysterflex strap.

Definitely appears no date as the markers are symmetrical and no cyclops.

Case almost appears like Deepsea from side profile, no?

It’s hard to screen shot....

My sources told me that it will have snowflake hands and a linen dial.

Selling a Seiko or two in preparations.

Looks like a deeper caseback than a Sub.....maybe a new SD?

Also, a few have speculated that it's teasing 2 watches: one with the bubbles and the second with the wake.

have to admit, I like a blue bezel black dial combo overall

No harm comes from speculation about a watch, so irresponsible is a bit of a stretch.

Tons of speculation, no one knows for sure. I’ve also seen Milgauss or explorer 1 update.

I have heard from a reputable source it could be an Explorer 1 with a ceramic bezel in 43mm case.
