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)

My hope is there will be the watch that will cure my obsession for the one watch to end and rule over my collection.

For years, I have been hoping for a REAL Tudor Submariner to grace our presence. We've come close, but not quite there. So, once again, I'm hoping for a Tudor Submariner.....40 or 41mm....black face....black bezel with lume....red triangle on the 12..... titanium AND a return to the notched bezel instead of the coin ridged bezel. I don't think that's asking a lot.

Nop, that’s not asking a lot, you’re not even asking for a ceramic bezel

Rolex has had the Batman, Pepsi, Coke, Root Beer & Sprite models for the GMT II…Won’t happen, but I think a Dr Pepper bezel would also be spectacular. That dark maroon & black would be awesome IMO!😎

Why would they do that? Tudor has deliberately done everything but. The Black Bay in standard black trim is the Tudor Submariner, in everything but name. A Tudor Submariner would just be the BB58, with a different printed name on the dial; a more technical version, you have several versions of Pelagos to choose from. Tudor has poured a lot into building the Black Bay name - possibly too much - so they won't back down now!

It's a great watch but way to expensive for IWC.
Not to mention you get the same movement in Mark XX for half of the price.

They gotta pay for Tom Brady somehow. Now they have his wife on board too 😂
