What can we expect for 2022? Rumors?

Mspeedster · Dec 28, 2021

It looks like 2022 is shaping up to be an interesting year, already we've heard about the following:
- Monaco Riviera Skeleton
- Autavia Flyback & GMT
- H02 Monaco Gulf

I'm guessing there will be a Jack Heuer 90 Carrera LE and another Porsche x TAG Heuer watch, not sure what else.

What other rumors have people heard about? 😗

(Feel free to DM me if you've got spy pics, which should not be posted here. 😉)

I'd also guess there might be another Monaco Skeleton LE and perhaps a "Max 33" SE Formula 1 to celebrate his WDC. Seems like they're rolling out Senna SE's almost every year too. Wouldn't surprise me if we see another glassbox Carrera, but will it be a JH 90?

Any other purely speculative guesses or predictions?

Checo : Minister of Defense 😉 LE

I have been asking everyone I know and all say that there aint no Max edition planned yet. I aint giving up hope though. We can probably expect a new Red Bull edition in 2022 though it sounds like.

I predict a banana yellow dial Monaco GMT on a yellow rubber strap with a black DLC case. In March. £6500.

What about the mid-size Aquaracers that some folks around here claim to surely be in the release pipeline?

Ah yes 40mm Aquaracers are coming, those are so obvious so no need to mention in this thread

I wonder if wearing 40mm Aquaracer vs 39mm Monaco will feel the same in term of size. Or 40mm Aquaracer will feel larger.

I only had Monaco modern case before (Type LS) and it made me feel my 43mm Aquaracer smaller a little bit.

The LS has a large case. I really wanted to buy the Monaco 24 Gulf (same case) back in the day, but it was just too big and didn't wear well on my wrist. The 39mm Monaco is fine for my wrist, but I wish it was thinner. The square shape, lack of tapered lugs and a blocky profile is what makes the Monaco wear large.

So depending on its thickness, I suspect the 40mm Aquaracer might feel even smaller compared to the 39mm Monaco.

my thoughts exactly 👍

Also a 42mm purple Link H02T with a diamond bezel

I wish they would do a H02T version of the 42mm Carrera, with rainbow diamonds. Would be totally epic

Maybe 2022 is the year purple becomes the new green? Perfect for our purple loving friend Brobert

Weirdly a few 'grey' dealers I look at to keep track of the C11 Monaco, have either crept up in price or having none in stock. Are Tag thinking of removing this piece from the lineup?

I'm hoping not, but seems prices are rising, which isn't good for me!

Price creep has been happening the last few years. I don't know about inventory, might be coincidence or seasonal.

I doubt the CAW211P will be discontinued until a heritage inspired successor is ready, such as one with a rumored modern day "in-house" version of the C11 movement. However, my bet would be against seeing such a Monaco debut in 2022.

I realize this thread is about expected new watches but according to Hodinkee we may expect the market for vintage Heuer to pick up again.
Article header is a lovely photo of a 3647n. Excellent taste those Howinkees 🙄

let’s hope when that day comes it won’t be as thick as the current H02

Unless TAG Heuer comes out with something irresistible in 2022, my next purchase is most likely going to be vintage Heuer or from another brand. I've got a major personal milestone in 2022 and I hope to get a watch to celebrate it. Hence I'm very keen to see what 2022 brings...
