Miranda, a superb and thorough report of the Rolex novelties. I have to say, this year has been a treat from Rolex.

Much appreciated, Miranda! It is with great surprise that I feel like falling for the Sea Dweller, much like yourself. I will have to give this one a try come fall. Your pictures on the Milgauss give it a much "cooler and summer watch" vibe. Also to be tr...
I also like the Sea Dweller but I'm not sure if it is different enough to my ceramic sub to justify.....any thoughts on that..?? The Pepsi bezel is amazing and I am glad it's only in white gold as it really does make it super special for the lucky few who...
