The black dial Oyster Perpetual 39 is my favorite. Love the new proportions of the 36, back to balance. I guess and hope they'll do the same with the SS models.

A lot of decent releases from Rolex this year. 39 mm oyster perpetual is nice. The "Root Beer" GMT is a real looker, even if I am not really into two-tone watches. The watch I'm least convinced by (relative to the hype) is the piece that got the most chatter: the Red-Blue GMT with the jubilee bracelet. Seems a mismatch, IMO, and I've said it before, but Rolex shouldn't have done this to the owners of the white gold piece, even if the jubilee bracelet is a distinguishing factor. Cheers, John

I don't think Rolex sets their steel watches with jewels like that. First time they put a triangle shape diamond at twelve on the bezel. The sapphires have a dégradé from 12 to 3, that's a very difficult to achieve and expensive feature. Vte

Thank you. Love the „Root Beer" GMT. Ordered it yesterday. P.S.: normally I don’t like TT! Best, Thomas
