As the title suggest.. Myself I am very interested in the Tudor range, very fortunate to pick up a BB 58 in august last year.

Very interested to see what Tudor launch.

It would be interesting to see if Piaget’s 2mm thick movement finds its way into much...
Omega to introduce a new 2254
A pledge from Rolex to increase production and STOP the grey market profiteering
Well they have tried micro measures such as selling to locals only, holding warranty cards, stickers etc, but only significant macro changes, in supply and price, will really affect the grey market, and that is very unlikely.
Interested to see how many models get updated to the 12**** series.
Looking foreword to it being over then the guessing games start again for 2020 Basel 🤣

Looking forward to: seeing what Tudor release.
Expecting: longer waiting lists.
I look forward to the long wait if there’s anything I like!
The new Milgauss - loads of speculation last week as Rolex posted 10 x Milgauss pics in a row and featured it on their website home page.
(That... or its just a bluff to make people buy the current GV!)
I’d like to see Tudor bring out a blue sub

Would like to see what Tudor release.
An updated, smaller Ranger would be nice as would a BB58 with black bezel and no gilt on the face.

New sub smaller lugs new movement.
Reading the outpouring of angst and consternation on here for Rolex or Tudor not releasing what people wanted and a zenith/IWC/Breitling archive dredge watch with the date in the wrong place and 2mm too big.
White dial Pepsi GMT.

Can you actually buy any of these new watches at Basel ?
Gotta be what Tudor keeps teasing! Sub or bb58 with new colour bezel maybe

Oh Christ.....Tudor angst in addition to Rolex 😢
Wouldn’t mind a new Sub on oysterflex, there is a mock-up floating around somewhere that looked really nice.
Oh here it is...
^^^ err, that looks like all their previous ones to me...
I'd love to see a BB58 Pepsi GMT. But if they announce such a thing when they can't satisfy demand for the current one (despite not being able to make them work), I'll bare my arse in Fenwick's window.
Just in case Rolex are reading, I can't wait to see the new Oyster Perpetual Date 38mm, black dial - a watch that will be the best looking watch they make and a real return to form.
Sadly I will have to wait though. But if I say it enough times maybe one day...
39mm Tudor case, Rolex calibre 9001 inside, for £2,500. Cheers.
White faced Explorer for me. Is it possible to put your name on a speculative model list just in case (damn it, let my cunning plan out the bag)...
Reality of what to look forward to is people putting names down to sell on at profit with no intention of keeping, again.

Thinking about it, I’d also love to see Seiko bring the Eichi treatment to a GS (or Credor) HA quartz watch.
Take the SBGX009 case, add a porcelain dial with hand-painted hour indices and logos in blue, SBGX009 hand set (including capped second) in heat-blued steel.
Mmmmmm....
There is already far too much Rolex in this thread.
I'm most curious about the Urban Jurgensen steel sports watch, it sounds like a huge departure to their "normal" offering although I'm sure the price point will still be in the unattainable bracket for me.
With Chanel & Tudor investing in a movement factory I wouldn't be surprised to see the tudor movement finding its way into one of the J12 models.
Seiko apparently doing a Wilard reissue, should be good but probably with the 8L movement and a silly rrp
I've got a feeling Patek will be doing something with the Calatrava this year.
I know it's not Basel but I'm hopeful that Omega have done something special (and respectful) for the 50th anniversary of the moon landing
Something new from the tudor / breitling crossover - a navi 8, SO/SOH or avenger GMT with the travellers gmt from the BB GMT inside would be an instant divorce for me.
The usual bonkers stuff from RM, Hautlence, HYT, etc.
Whatever micro increments rolex et al bring out i suppose.
Actually, I do mean Oyster Perpetual Date - Oyster Perpetuals are dateless now, but didn't used to be, an Oyster Perpetual Date was an option and would have a smooth bezel and oyster bracelet, and be a bit smaller than the DJ. I'm suggesting that the case shape of my proposed Oyster Perpetual Date 38mm should be similar to the Oyster Perpetual 39, not the Datejust with its over-wide bezel. A bit larger than the 36mm but smaller than the 39mm. This to me would be the right way to up-size the Datejust and better than any of their recent attempts to do that. Essentially, sticking a date and cyclops on a black or white Oyster Perpetual 39 would be a better looking and more subtle Datejust than either the DJ41 or DJII. But for me personally it would be better in the same size as Omega's 38mm Aqua Terra, as an all-dial 39mm watch with a minimal dial can have a dinner plate effect. Those who want something larger have plenty of options already, but at the expense of the classic harmonious proportions of the original 36mm DJs.
So in summary yes, I am suggesting a return of the Oyster Perpetual Date, in 38mm, with classic black, white and champagne dials please (perhaps also blue and dark grey too). I think this would beat any current Rolex model, sell like hot cakes and mark a return to a more subtle and sophisticated (pre-bloated) form.

Personally, I’m looking forward to seeing the new Rolex sports watch that I won’t be able to buy at retail - again.........
A robust, high water resistance ALS ‘sports watch.’ Something still elegant and restrained, but more obviously tough.
I don't understand the not uncommon desire for a ALS sports watch. The attention given to Patek and AP is hopelessly skewed towards their sports watches. Why would it be a good thing for ALS, whose reputation is doing very nicely without one of these things, want to draw admiration away from their existing watches? Short-term benefits, at best, surely? And that would be assuming they got it right.....
new color like coke
116610LV discontinued with the green dial and reinvented with black dial green bezel like the old 16610LV.
