    It's a all blue stainless no date Sub.

    Basically the Rolex Sub version of the blue Tudor Black Bay.

    Maybe ... probably.

    Generally, though, Rolex doesn't let its classics get the "new treatment" before its vetted out with other models or with precious metal variations (e.g. the smurf) and even less on a no-date sub. We'll see.

    I may get a chance to have an early look, if the stars align and my schedule allows it.

    Definitely a no date Sub.
    Watch your video.
    The case is a Sub case.
    The lume shot doesn't have a date gap.
    The side shot of the crystal doesn't have a cyclops.

    Oh I agree that what is in the video is a no date sub. The video is quite clear about that.

    I also agree that it is very likely blue. It's just a rather non-rolex thing to do to use a no-date sub to put out a new color for the line.

    Then again, they put out the Z blue Milgauss (which I hope stays in the catalog).

    But it's not a new color.
    It's a no date stainless smurf.

    Well... that was a big nothingburger announcement.

    I'm not a Sub fan though, so YMMV.
    "Texas Timex" everybody and their unimaginative dog owns a Sub around here.

    Damn, the Milgauss black Verte and Air-King are still in the lineup.
    I wish they'd discontinue both of them so I can cash in on the spike in demand discontinued models always get.

    116400 blue z remains

    White gold sub is the blue bezel.

    Stainless ceramic Kermit replaces the hulk

    Nice.

    Since the hulk is officially stopped I can look “forward” to mine being basically unreplaceable - bobs already has one at $19k.
