I'd reckon that the fireworks start between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. CET, depending on the brands.

Tudor (who may be the first) reveal at 08:30 CET. I’m guessing it will be a relentless slew of reveals from then onwards.

So 07:30 onwards for the UK?

I ditched all social media a while back, so will rely on what turns up here…

Also the 'reverse panda' has the date at the 12 whereas the blue one has the date at the 6

What’s the reason behind this do you think? Never been a fan of the date at 12.

I can’t get my head around that either. Prefer symmetry generally, but would still prefer 3 over 12.

Screams AP to me.

This harkens back to the 1976 model, which was actually designed by Gerald Genta himself. So it should 😉

No idea... seems odd that different models in the same range have dates in different places.

It's a throwback styling nod to the original Carreras of the '60s that first wore a date window at 12 o'clock. Such as the ref. 3147N Dato 12.

This TAG Instagram story was posted 3 hours ago. So if my time zone math is correct, should be right around 8:30 am Central European time.

I thought they had ditched all Sellita by now? 👎

But yeah - the Richemont triple of IWC, Panerai & JLC feels like the worst offender in terms of insane price hikes; closely followed by Zenith and Omega, who seem more than happy that someone paves the way… 😁

They still use the "35111" which is their name for the sellita. I do believe they change some parts so it aint off the shelf, but still, pricing is insane in my opinion.

Aren't all iwc prices insane tho. Like 7k for a sellita three hander
Sellita based C11 Monaco is $7300 USD. The new titanium C11 Monaco, that should debut at W & W, is an unbelievable $9500. 😲

Yeah but the TAG Heuer badge is cool. The Monaco is unique, with superb design. IWC letters on a watch dial represent a lack of identity for suits looking to flex their paycheck. No offense to anyone who loves the portofino or portugieser 🙄😝

Capsoul have been posting a lot on Instagram all of a sudden too, do we assume there is another Plasma coming out tomorrow?

My new year resolution is to UNFOLLOW every YouTube channel posting 'All Rolex's New Models REVEALED' videos the day before W&W.
