Every year at Watches & Wonder (or Baselworld for the OGs), we take in all the new releases from Rolex. But with new additions, come discontinuations.
But considering that the Milgauss, as a brand unto itself, is one of the pinnacle Rolex sport models dating back to 1956, I doubt it will be gone for long. At least not at Watches & Wonders. Time will tell if – and how – a new Rolex Milgauss enters the brand's lineup. And now, it's gone – erased from the Rolex website. Loading... It's the way of the world, the circle of life.
These are the hype watch of Watches and Wonders and the Moonshine Moonswatch launch earlier this month look pales into insignificance beside it.
Which side of the fence people come down on does not matter. The key to an Instagram sensation is polarised opinion, and the style of these watches is generating the perfect level of heat. Rolex has been an expert, if unremarkable, presence on social media for a number of years, but never a brand that appeared to value the impact of an Instagram sensation like, for example, Omega and Swatch did with last year’s MoonSwatch sensation.
Spanning eight different models and multiple references, the lineup consists of iconic silhouettes from the entire Oyster Perpetual range, including the likes ...
Boasting a simple, highly-legible, and robust build, the timepiece is highly resistant to corrosion and is safe to use even in the harshest of environments and climates. As a testament to Rolex’s mastery of gem-setting, the new Day-Date 36 is presented in three glimmering dial options comprising green aventurine, carnelian stone, or turquoise. Perhaps the most colorful reference in Rolex’s latest drop, the Oyster Perpetual is introduced to a marvelous turquoise-hued dial that’s decked with multi-colored bubbles. Arriving in an 18-carat yellow gold as well as a yellow Rolesor version, the new GMT-Master II features gray and black ceramic Cerachrom bezel inserts for a harmonious contrast. Dubbed “an icon defying time” by the Maison, the collection receives an updated dial with a new graphic balance, as well as resized indices and counter rings. Read on for the full list of Rolex’s lineup of watches for the annual event.

336934; ref. Complicated and 42mm, the Sky-Dweller isn't my typical kind of watch. This new movement includes the Chronergy escapement and is fitted with a blue Parachrom hairspring, made in a paramagnetic alloy. Both new iterations remain true to Sky-Dweller form: 42mm diameter, fluted bi-directional rotating bezel, 100 meters water resistance, dual time zone, and Saros annual calendar. These dial colors are a fun addition to Rolex's most complicated modern watch. Loading...
Defying rumours, and some wishful computer renders, that it would release an anniversary titanium version of the model, the new Oyster Perpetual Cosmograph ...
The platinum version comes with an ice blue dial and an oscillating weight made from 18k yellow gold. The new versions feature restyled hour markers and counter rings, plus redesigned lugs and case sides. The case and dial markers have been slightly redesigned, and the range now features Rolex’s latest 2023 movement, the calibre 4131.

Faithful to what wowed watch-lovers on the Day-Date’s launch in 1956 (it was the first calendar wristwatch to show not only date but the day of the week, spelt out in an arc-shaped window at 12 o’clock), the new pieces are—natch—fitted on a President bracelet, in keeping with the “Rolex President” nickname that arose from the piece being favored by Lyndon B. Also enhancing that legibility is a Chromalight display which gives off a pleasing blue glow in poor light dark conditions but during daylight hours offers up a strikingly bright white hue. These juxtapose elegantly with the name “GMT‑Master II,” rendered on the dial in powdered yellow. The bidirectional rotatable bezel, meanwhile, is in matte black ceramic with raised numerals, complementing a black dial with a fine satin finish. Many predicted the arrival of a Daytona (or perhaps a Submariner) rendered from an alloy known for its strength and lightness. It includes a Chronergy escapement, Syloxi hairspring and Paraflex shock absorbers, not to mention bridges finished with Rolex Côtes de Genève (keen-eyed observers will note the polished groove between each band). All house the new calibre 4131 movement, an evolutionary step up from calibre 4130, which features bridges decorated with Rolex Côtes de Genève finishing. As it turns out, the next-gen versions of this iconic motorsport chronograph have been subject to a number of subtle aesthetic twists. Would any new releases prove as singular as the platinum iteration of the latter, introduced when it turned 50? Given what attendees beheld for the first time in Geneva today, we’d implore readers to take advantage. What impact this has on how likely those without an authorized dealer on speed-dial are to get hold of a piece remains to be seen. Would the most lauded haute horology outfit on the planet pitch a curveball to match that of last year’s “Southpaw” GMT-Master II with green and black bezel, or the titanium Deepsea Challenge that raised eyebrows in the watch-loving community a few months after it?

It is the end of an era for a watch with a unique design that proved itself as one of Rolex’s most intriguing models, made more valuable to collectors by its rarity. The announcement of the Milgauss’s discontinuation will sadden many watch lovers as the model was a cult favorite. It also held the distinction of being one of the wildest-looking Rolex sport models of the modern era.

The jigsaw pattern on the dial is made through champlevé enamelling, and the hours markers are baguette-cut sapphires in six different hues. A restrained dress watch, the 1908 is characterized by a finely fluted bezel and a slim case with a transparent caseback. This colorful bubbled motif is uncharacteristically playful for Rolex, and it’s certainly a lot of fun to look at. The calibre 4131 is an evolution of the prior mechanism, the 4130, which includes some technological innovations made at Rolex since the 4130’s own debut. And they weren’t let down: the new Daytona features aesthetic adjustments, tweaked colors to enhance contrast, and most importantly, a new movement inside.

It says a lot for Rolex as a brand when its basic models are this good, but the bubble-fest today takes it to another level of art-as-dial or vice versa. The tables have been turned upside down with baby blue Oyster Perpetuals in 41mm, 36mm, and 34mm that feature a bubble-fest of a dial encapsulating the entire rainbow of the nouveau Stella O.P.s. The baby-blue versions – they were pre the [Patek x Tiffany Nautilus](https://www.gq-magazine.co.uk/watches/article/jay-z-patek-philippe-tiffany-and-co) FYI – becoming Submariner-scarce at the dealers was as much of a shock to Rolex as anyone else we imagine.

Goodbye Cellini. Say hello to the dressy new Perpetual collection and the Perpetual 1908.
With the new 1908, Rolex has captured this heritage in a way I haven't seen it do in years. Besides the 1908, we (the Hodinkee "we") passed around a lot of sport watches from a handful of brands today at Watches & Wonders – Rolex, Tudor, IWC, even Lange (though The price puts the 1908 in the same neighborhood as an A. On the inside, the strap is green, another simple "Rolex being Rolex" touch. [explored before](https://www.hodinkee.com/articles/new-rolex-oyster-perpetual-34-release-you-probably-missed-introducing), it's notable to see Rolex continue down the path of using two different kinds of hairsprings across its models, and today we're seeing the Syloxi in a larger watch for the first time. And now, in a first for Rolex, the new automatic caliber 7140 can be seen through a sapphire caseback. I'll drone on about the need for smaller dress watches as much as the next guy, but I've gotta admit: I didn't mind the case size one bit. The case is polished, and while we weren't able to get any other measurements from Rolex, the watch is thin (maybe 9mm?) and has a slim profile on wrist. But there's something about a yellow-gold Rolex with a black dial that feels like giving order to a chaotic world. After wearing both for about an equal amount of time – that's about 30 minutes each, for the entirety of our one-hour meeting with Rolex – the black paired with the yellow gold was my favorite of the bunch. And man, if the first Perpetual 1908 is what we can expect for the future of the collection, we might be in for a whole new side of Rolex. Loading...

The all-star watch lineup includes a stunning new Cosmograph Daytona.
An annual calendar, for good measure, is powered by a new 9002 caliber movement. That announcement was led (arguably) by the 60th anniversary edition of the Rolex Cosmograph Daytona. The watch is a nod to the 1931 Oyster Perpetual, and worthy of any Rolex collection centered around the watchmaker’s famed dive timepieces.

A solid gold Rolex is never the wrong choice, and this newest Jubilee bracelet-laden GMT is very choice.
The Hodinkee shop carries a variety of used and pre-owned Rolex watches, [explore the collection here.](https://shop.hodinkee.com/collections/rolex-brand) Every time I thought my preference was for the all-gold, I would spot the two-tone on the other end of the table and ask to see it a second and third time. It's the sort of combo of watches where there's no wrong choice (just a vast difference in price with the two-tone costing CHF 15,700, and the all-gold, CHF 37,100. In the end, it's a watch that lacks the splashiness of an emoji Day-Date but makes up for it with miles of pitch-perfect simplicity in both versions. And, to be honest, a solid yellow gold GMT and a Rolesor (steel and yellow gold two-tone) GMT are not necessarily surprising watches.
