My guess/hopes are:

* Snowflake (both with, and without date)
* Advisor

And: Keep them in the traditional size...

Best,

A

A Tudor Sub "Heritage" for sure and i think that will have a couple mm or more to their size.

Would be nice if they would do it like Panerai, vintage style including Plexiglass.

I predicted a new snowflake after the release of the Heritage Chrono.

We shall see............

Snowflake would be sweet. Anyone care to offer opinion on the movement they might use?

The OWC Snowflake I have on order will have an A10...

It will be an ETA or Selita in all probability.

I'll say it now - if it's not blue, or if there isn't at least a blue option (a blue model and a black model), I have zero interest.

Anyone with me on that?

Blue would make it that much more special.

lets hope whatever it is that they come out with, it will be a heritage model of sorts. the heritage chrono is the best thing i've seen out of tudor since the shift to the newer style designs.

A new snowflake Sub would be great - and very tempting!

The only thing that keeps dashing my hopes is the thought that a model like we're describing could really cannibalize new Sub sales.

Would Rolex really do such a thing?

Amen, Brother. At 40mm I'll grab a Snowflake for sure and maybe 2 if they offer black and blue. Actually, I'd also like an orange one.

But if it is bigger than 40mm then no new Tudor for me.

Nah, this is what I see when I look down, but it is still a skinny wrist, that enjoys life best with a watch that is not more than 40mm in diameter:
