..Land Dweller...

I can already see the hype in early 2026:

Coming this spring... in a continuation of the venerable brands new "Captain Obvious Collection"- The Rolex "Oxygen-Breather". Not for the meek with its innovative three hands, a case, a crystal and a bracelet- Rolex is pushing the horological boundaries that only they can do.

Soon to be available for display purposes only at a boutique near you.

One of the highest and worst quality items in the same photo. I wonder if both combined, everything ends up just "Okay". :LOL:

"wow.. the royal oak's looks so cool. Let's slap our brand on it" :)

or god help me.. someone on the Rolex team fell in love with the Tissot PRX..
It's like a Date Just, a PRX and a Royal Oak were birthed by a fish with a catalytic converter as a reproductive organ.

I really can't believe Rolex, in their infinite exclusivity, couldn't come up with something more creative. Make it look like Hublot or a RM so Niko L. can get some extra views when he loses his shit, spitting all over the place complaining.

I'm actually a happy person.

The tech in is it impressive which people aren't talking about. New direct impulse escapement technology similar to Omega's Coaxial. 5hz beat rate.

I could care less about the design tho

I find it funny that so many from this forum are so unaware about Rolex and it's history. They don't even know how and why Rolex makes watch models.This is based on Rolex's own 1969 Quartz version and it was released pre Royal Oak and other Genta designs.

Yeah but come on Land Dweller is a horrible name. Heritage and all that sure, but doesn't excuse the name or no offense the terrible dial

Agree, name is not good but comparing with Tissot is a joke.
