Rolex new releases

[SDC2003]

Hi Rolex lovers, starting a thread (which hopefully doesn’t already exist) for new Rolex releases - scarcity, popularity, thoughts etc.

So a couple thoughts:

There’s a new oyster perpetual with a bright blue background and balloons. Some aspects of this watch remind me of designs by Dmitry Rybaltchenko who creates work for Hermes. Anyone else see the similarity?

The new gmt watch in gray/black with jubilee bracelet is stunning. Curious if anyone knows whether that will only be a 2023 model and how difficult it would be acquire one.

I'm really liking the celebration OP. It gives me swatch flashback though.
Hoping to try an exhibition piece when the ADs get them.

I know right? Some moments I love the fun aspect of it, like fizzy bubbles...others it reminds me of unmentionables lol.

Thank you @Swanky! So the gmt I was referring to is the gray black one you posted. And thanks to @Book Worm for post the op. Here’s an image of the Hermes design I was talking about

You're right about it being similar to the celebration OP, now that I see your pic. Upbeat and celebratory is what comes to mind with both the OP and the bracelet. Hoping to see some mod shots once exhibition pieces become available at ADs and folks share...

I absolutely love this! It's so playful and colorful...just my style! Is it difficult to get? What is the MSRP on this watch/style?

Not sure in USD around 6100 for OP36 I think.

Thanks! Sounds about right.

Have the exhibition pieces of the new releases become available yet at any of the ADs? Or does anyone know when they will be available to see in-person?

I'm located in Canada. I'm in a Facebook group for watch lovers and have seen someone acquire the new explorer 40mm. I've also seen a grey dealer post the new two tone GMT for sale. So I think they're starting to hit ADs now but likely won't be available to everyone at this point, likely the very special VIPs. Hopefully there will be exhibition pieces for regular ppl like me
