I might pick up one of these new mid-size Datejust for my wife. One with a black dial, to complement the silver dial Air King 15000 I got her 2 years ago. Very classy and feminine, the polished case and central link of the bracelet fit this model really well.

As for myself, I don't think I will purchase anything from Rolex in 2008, unless they come up with something really spectacular, like a new Explorer, or Explorer II. Like Hannes, I'm done with vintage models. So at some stage, in the future, I'd like a 16610 LV but I'm in no hurry, especially since I just got that for Christmas:



John, I know you don't like the hands on this watch, but I can guarantee you that they are more legible than anything Rolex has ever produced, especially in the dark.

Otherwise, to summarize my impressions of the watch: 90% plus of the quality of a Rolex Sub at 40% of the price. Quite outstanding.
