Anyone know of any new watches that are due out?

I heard Tudor and Omega were going to do a collab and release the Black SeaBay 300
No new GMTs or BB58 or Seamaster then? Hearing a green or red BB58
Didn’t omega just announce a whole load of releases last week?
If Tudor could disassociate itself with David Beckham that would be a good start.
Actually the more I think about it their celebrity endorsements are a bit on the nose. So we need manly men to want to buy a Tudor watch. How about David Beckham - blokes like football right? - oh but what about girls, not forgetting the lgbtq crowd, hey, Lady Gaga! That’s it, everybody’s happy - and their endorsement is bound to be ‘reassuringly expensive’ like our watches. Plus they’re both ‘fashion’ people so that’s the yoof Instagram crowd covered, job done!

The word on the street is the return of the Tudor Submariner.
40mm, £2,500.
Can't see it being that popular.
They wouldn’t. Tudors watches have to offer something either vintage or quirky enough to differentiate themselves from Rolex, without impeding on Rolex’s design or offering too much of a viable alternative. There were enough compromises with the Heritage Ranger to make it a decent alternative for those that couldn’t afford an Explorer, without being so good that those that could afford an Explorer would choose the Ranger over it.
The Submariner is Rolex DNA, as are the Mercedes hands. Rolex are the most ID savvy brand in the world, they won’t dilute that ID by letting another brand use a design that is intrinsically theirs and thus reducing the desirability of it. Likewise the snowflake hands are Tudors modern DNA, it distinguishes them as a brand in their own right - why would they want to go back to being a cheap Rolex parody after a decade of establishing themselves?
The Black Bay is to modern Tudor what the Sub is to Rolex. There is no way you will see a Tudor Sub reissued, I just cannot fathom that the two brands would see it as anything but harmful to each of their respective IDs.
I’d like to see Tudor make a smaller Ranger if the Explorer is going bigger, and relaunch the the Black Bay line with a slimmer case (15mm is too hefty).
Seeing tudors Instagram my money is on a coke bezel gmt

If it is a BB58 GMT I'm going to have a headache deciding what to do
I’m thinking it could be a ceramic Coke bezel GMT. - hopefully in the Black Bay Fifty Eight group.
The teaser shows a merging of black and red powder which suggests ceramic- to me at least 🧐
Tudor are being very bullish about Wednesday whereas Rolex are saying their offering is going to be relatively low key after the Sub and OP launch last September.
Either way the phones will be melting 😩
A 40mm Pelagos please!
Yeah yeah never going to happen I know...
I'm going out on a limb here by saying Omega will release a limited edition Speedmaster.....

A black face and red bezel?
If so will this likely have a waiting list? And how long do they normally take to come through to stores?
They already do that color mix I can't see it myself
This thread has made me realise just how cringe worthy Tudor’s marketing really is. “Born to dare”

Trouble is, when they released the P01, everyone had a meltdown. They released the BB58 blue and everyone celebrated like it was the return of Jesus. The Tudor royal had fans but I think most enthusiasts thought it was a miss.
The market is telling them to be conservative. As much as I’d like to see something which isn’t a BB, I’m not holding my breath.
I’d love a green Pelagos.
That tag line is a link to their history and purpose, born (created) to be more daring than Rolex. However, Rolex are so conservative that sticking a red bezel on a BB58 probably does seem daring by comparison.
(having said that, the newest line of OP’s is probably more interesting and contemporary than anything in Tudors current line up!).
It does seem to suggest something coke ish:

I'd only be interested if it is GMT housed in the BB58 sized case.

Haven't Tudor been sticking different coloured bezels on black bays for awhile now?
Again not saying it's what they'll do, I have no clue, but I don't find it hard to believe given the form. And I don't blame them either, they've got a few successful lines so 'if it ain't broke' seems to apply.
How about a special edition bb58, with a head that looks normal but is precious metal and a red rubber strap for say.. ~40k? That can be resold on WF for £100k 🤣
All eyes on Tudor now but I’m expecting muted following the Rolex update.
What time for Tudor?
