Maybe a date window on a BB with a red date wheel.

That would explain the Red text, the reference to Numbers and Right, and the square box. But honestly I would not have expected that kind of change outside of Basel. But kind of nice to see something like this outside of Basel.

Black Bay Bronze Destro. That's my guess but I'm hoping it's something more interesting than that.

I believe the red text is just referring to the colour of the brand (with the black background).

I don't think it's a destro. It's such a small niche market IMHO and since they share some of the culture of Rolex, I don't believe Tudor would that.

In my opinion, the square clearly refers to Pelagos, so it has to be either a Pelagos or a revival of the submariner, which they would include in the Pelagos collection...

Now, I have no idea how this relates to their two teasers...

Fully agree with you here. I think the white/red is just tudors logo colours

I'd venture it maybe a Ranger with their in-house movement? It's got one of the few numbered dials in the current collection and has been released for a few years now so it's probably time for an update?


But then that might have been too easy right?

And I did.

Despite the fine workmanship and peerless finishing, the styling is just uninspiring and it's getting the least wrist time...so this is where it resides most of the time.

Actually macchiato means "stained" in Italian, marked is "marchiato".

I suspect this is more related to coffee, "caffè macchiato" means coffee with a little of milk in Italian.

Right but unfortunately, the American consumers at which this is aimed, have bastardized Macchiato to mean a coffee drink with LOTS of caramel. (Thanks, Starbucks)

This thing is getting harder and harder to guess...

Summary: Pelagos square, right, numbers and macchiato

The macchiato can either refer to an alarm complication or to the coffee color that the dial might take...

Hmmmmm... Macchiato could also be a reference to heavily patina-ed hour plots and hands luminous...

I guess we will know soon enough...

A tropical dial looks very much like a cup of coffee with some marks.

So, summarizing: we have a GMT Pelagos with a 3-6-9 Tropical dial, a destro crown and a red seconds hand !

This must be it !

I think we have it nailed !

After all this, whatever they end up announcing will be incredibly boring !!!


(In Doc Brown's voice: Basel ? For what we are going to announce we don't need... Basel.)
