This would be interesting. maybe an option of white ceramic with black numerials would be better?

The 'new' Daytona looks abit retro... But base on pic I feel it looks better than the rose gold ceramic.

agree! rose gold with black ceramic bezel looks out of place *imho*

Agreed that the new white Daytona does give a retro feel to it and the rose gold and black ceramic combination doesn't look ok to me.

My money place on daytona ceramic bezel SS , the photo on rolex 2012 invitation has a arrow which look like a hint for GMT2 or yatch master 2 new model since explorer 2 has been out. Is the new CEO going for the revamp sky dweller to be additional new watch to boost the sale.

Hmm sky dweller, maybe revamp of the thunder bird...
Following year maybe they will come out with land dweller just to get all angle covered..

... when I saw the name "sky dweller" I suddenly thought of starwars' "luke sky walker" ..

i read from some forum, sky dweller is actually new GMT . GMT Rolex price will shoot up if they discontinue it.

I personally don't think GMT will be discounted as Sky Dweller is a separate new Sport Series and a totally new product after all.

Interesting to see what is exactly a Sky Dweller. Space Dweller by Rolex:-

All are anticipating what will come. Really a all new model or not.

If i have money to burn and some luck, I'll take that space dweller first.

Most Rolex sports model with have a function ... sub/SD - depth rating, Daytona - tachymeter/chrono ... etc

For aero/space, typical functions will be: GMT (PanAm), anti-magnetic (Milgauss), pilot/b-uhren (Rolex has no such history), space travel/moon (Omega territory and Rolex has no such history) .... looks like everything has been covered, except for chronograph to time a speeding aircraft? Not sure what use could there be .....
