A Discussion around the Rolex "Sprite" Destro 126720VTNR GMT. Is it soon to be Discontinued and why is it worth Collecting? This may very well be one of the most collectable modern sports Rolex's going into the future for all the reasons why most people dislike it. The left-hand case is polarising, the flipped date window is jarring. Considering that this watch will have a short production run and uses a signature green as a part of its makeup, adds to the look and presentation of this oddity. Picasso would be proud!
