Watches and Wonders 2023 - What are your predictions / hopes?

7967 Views 87 Replies 59 Participants Last post by  SKYWATCH007
With the event around the corner (which I now get nerdily excited about), I'm curious to know what everyone is hoping for. Or, if you have a prediction, feel free to share!

For me, I'm really hoping for a 44mm Bronzo



And hoping that IWC goes back to the baton style hands with a revival of the Tribute to Mark



But, I'm a realist and Panerai will probably announce e-straps with a horrible logo on the strap and IWC will just show some crazy over the top movement that Tom Cruise will wear in the space movie on the ISS.

What about you guys? Share some photos when applicable (ie: revival of X watch)

Prediction:
Tudor will come out with a green dial steel case submariner and call it BB58 Heritage w/ green dial.
Isn't that the Harrod's edition?
Sure, they can produce a legit watch, but they are a fashion brand ranging from fragrance, handbags, shoes, clothing, sunglasses ect. I might be wrong here but do any others on that list do that? Would be my last choice when it comes to a timepiece at that price point.
As do Omega and Cartier.

Not to get off topic of the purpose of the thread, my point with Chanel is they have a crazy product breadth and their roots are not in watchmaking. It's neat that they have now made an in-house caliber, but for me - just not my choice. I'm also not into brands that put their logo all over handbags/shoes. Chanel on that list sticks out like a sore thumb to me. But, I'm sure they move plenty of units.
Didn't Hermes have a watch with a micro rotor a few years back that drew a lot of attention? Also Bvlgari's Octo range is a notable mention when talking about watches from fashion brands.
I don't know a lot about watches from high end fashion brands.
