Other Variations of the Tudor "Coke" 58 GMT?

As a huge fan of the Rolex 5-digit GMT, as soon as the 39mm Black Bay 58 came out, I was hoping for a GMT version.

When the 58 GMT was revealed, I thought the colors were okay when seeing online, but I wasn't crazy about it. After seeing it in person, I really don't like it. The bezel and dial are just a big mash up of black, maroon, and shades of gold and cream. It looks like someone vomited those colors on to the dial and bezel--it just all blends together (and not in a good way).

It would look 100% better without the gilding. The watch looks like its trying too hard to be an old Rolex GMT. Don't be what you aren't--just be a shiny, bright, new-looking Tudor GMT (like the Black Bay 41 GMT). Get rid of the cheesy looking gilding, and use traditional colors of black, red, blue, and green on the bezel and GMT hand.

Does anyone think Tudor will use that 58 GMT platform to start introducing next year other models with white markings on the dial and different bezel colors? I sure hope so!
