THIS.

I like Rolex as much as the next guy and I might be alone in thinking that this Land-Dweller is hideous, but I'm hoping it doesn't become a rep :)

Assuming this is real, opinions?

It's a new Rolex model and doesn't look like the most complicated to copy - it hasn't got any fancy-pants complications. The movement is all-singing all-dancing, but there's no reason to replicate its next-gen-ness. I don't think it'll be long before the rep arrives. I'd guess it's entirely possible the rep won't be as slim as the gen.

Although I can't say I'm waiting with bated breath for it. I do like the nod to the Oysterquartz shape, but the mish-mash of honeycomb dial, fluted bezel and new case shape all looks a bit scattergun design to me.

IMO this watch is massively more attractive than the sky dweller... I get it, mechanically, it is one of Rolex's most complicated watches, but I just think the dial is way too busy, much like the YMII, I really disliked that one. Although I'm very "basic" when it comes to watch designs.
