Basel 2009 - And the show is on

And we were wrong. A few pics have started popping up on the web. No new Explorer's on Rolex's line-up. The old ones are still on display. We were right about the new two-tone Submariners... but everybody knew that one. And, yes there is a Datejust II with reportedly a 41mm diameter case size. This is a very welcome development, although a new sports model would probably cause more of a stir.

A few more blingy Daytona's and new dials on the old Datejust so far. Anything else? The new watches should be up on Rolex's website in a few hours and we will know for sure.

Patek Philippe has thirty new watches in its line-up. That is more than last year if I remember correctly and they are up on Patek's website now. But this is actually less interesting than it sounds, the majority being new variants of of older designs.

New for 2009. Patek Philippe 5153J.
