Even if I would have preferred slender lugs.... And / or a larger bracelet. Best, Nicolas

Now I am torn between the new Explorer II and this! I love the white faced Explorer II but I have always wanted a ND Sub! The Sky Dweller should have been a tool watch with an annual calendar function.

this new case would benefit from old school chamfering (bevels)??? It would make the lugs look finer. If Tudor is doing it, why souldn't mother hen (rolex) do it? Saludos amigo mío. René

They shouldn't have discontinued it. Better, they should have updated it with a saphire domed crystal like that on the Tudor Black Bay! I think they would sell tons of it Best regards. René

... I learn to admire the vintage references of the past, and their elegance and coolness in design. May be I´m getting too old! As always say, just my very personal view. Best cordial regards, Abel.

It would have maybe been different with some nice details borrowed to the Vintage. Which leads me to a paradox: Does Rolex really care about Vintage, and if yes, why not including these details which are such an important part of these watches??? Best, Ni... 

Except for lugs and bracelet. I can't wait to see it in the stores. But when?

Honestly I like bevels but this case with no date is sharp. I have been considering a C sub for a while. Depends on when they make it to store shelves. I don't have much patience and don't want to pay a premium.

This was missing from the line up last year and the date can be a pain to keep setting...this is just lovely Andy.

I'd been hoping for this watch last year at Basel 2011. When it didnt come then, I had sort of given up hope that Rolex would make a ceramic no date sub. Now here it is, finally, and I am oddly ambivalent about it, even though it had been my #1 fantasy "I... 

... wearing a Sub for more than 45 years, I welcome this new "evolution" or inevitable "aggiornamiento" of the traditional no date Sub. I did welcome the previous Date Submariner Ceramic arrival, and as a matter of fact, I own a geen dial variant too. Any...

every AD still has a couple of these in stock. Now is the time. I buy watches to wear, but in this case, Im keeping the manufacturer's stickers on until 2053.

Despite making it loose it's collector value Best. René

I am really disappointed in the trend of most watch makers today and in particular Rolex, as I write this I am wearing my Sea Dweller and it appeals to me so much more than these latest offerings. The increase in case sizes bewilders me, is it that we are... 

I get along with your thoughts. I guess that's why many of us like vintage more than modern rolexes. Congrats on your sea-dweller, since it's one of the most iconic tool watch, one to live forever! I think rolex is geting more into "trendy" or "fashion" d...

To go buy a new 14060M before they disappear to have the last link with the past? Or go with the new?

5513 > 14060M > this new one. Why not? Best, Nicolas

everything is sufficiently different to my GMT to justify another daily beauty. It will go well with my classic collection too, but with a twist of being the new version...I like My dealer is over there so he knows already, and if they ever do a red sub w... 

... already the 5513 and 14060M in my stable! ... This one is the logical next option! Un abrazo amigo mio! Abel.

...methinks. This piece is very, very attractive. I look forward to this one in the metal. Cheers, Daos

Here's hoping to get a glimpse of it in person soon. Thanks for sharing it with us, Nicko. Alex

releases followed by the blue dial yachtmaster. All I will say about the rest is "not for me thanks". Vintage stuff is starting to look more appealing at this rate. regards darma

And I hope I will fall in love with, as I love the YM so much! Best, my friend. Nicolas

I presume the dial is a different blue color from the yellow gold version of this YM? Regards Darma

With the blue dial and yachting/boating theme. Best Darma

... nce again I am happy to own one of the old sea dwellers - happy again 2012 with no new Rolex ! best Stephan

Yes, the more I think about it and the more I look at it, the more I think that this will be the modern watch for me in 2012. Case size good. Cool innovation on the lume. Uni-directional scratch resistant bezel. Yep like that. New bracelet too. It's simpl... 

this is definately on my list Andy.

Baron I do agree with you. Its back to the purity of the early Subs with a changed crown guards and no date feature. I think Rolex is listening and aware that Rolex aficionados what the company to pay homage to their Icons of yesterday. Has anyone seen th... 

From the 14060 in 1989, the 14060M in 1999, first non-certified and certified, to finish his career with a Parachrom. Frankly, it was time to change it. The bracelet, the insert, the EL, nothing was going on that "poor" submariner. Only the 3130 is on top...
