False alarm. Sorry folks.
I watched couple of videos from the event and it is actually the new titanium Jumbo with burgundy dial.

Ceramic Jumbo is probably in the works though.

I don’t think that is a ceramic watch. Obviously would need to see better pics, but looks like the new red dial jumbo. I also can’t imagine him wearing an unannounced ceramic jumbo.

Lastly, I would expect we will see a 41mm time only CE first. Just guessing though

Of course it can be revamped. There is a 5 year/10 year plan, but thinking they will stick to it no matter what and that there are strict designs planned for 5 years can be only true in FHB head... as great CEO he was, and as great he was in giving other people credit, he knows that AP will do more than great in next years and want to continue to ride that horse even when he is gone...

I think maybe BMG (bulk metallic glass).

I would love to see them bring back the dual-time complication. Not sure if I have a preference for it whether it's in the RO or CODE.

So, similar to the Music Edition then. That should be interesting, and since no chrono function hopefully helps the bottom line.
I wonder if they will use blue or brown ceramic in a CODE. Lots of opportunity there too.

That’s a good point. Even with the Music Edition some people made that comment and preferred the look of the 37mm size. Given your valid point, I can’t imagine what they come up with.

Music Edition looks really big in 43... looking at Hodinke Talking watches, even the ceramic one which is supposed to visually looks smaller seemed big on a 6'8 basketball player... I'm positive that 37mm looks way better on majority of men's wrists... can't wait for 2024 releases...

True, that is actually probably the first 3 hand ROO!

I did hear the same thing about the sand gold QP with no pushers (crown only). First time hearing the sand gold will be on the chrono too

Also a Yg openworked to replace the 15407

Thought those were supposed to be 2025 releases. Confirmed for 2024?

Not hard to see what they did for RD4 and extrapolate that into a new QP movement. Thanks for the good intel!

Travelled to a few boutiques and AP houses recently, and the below are the common snippets I picked up. Take below with a grain of salt (though I believe these to be relatively non-controversial):
- Consolidation of the 41mm Code offering
- Expansion of 38mm Code line-up
- Calibre 2385 really due for a refresh
- New small size RO (even smaller than current 33/34mm)

Biggest stretch is the introduction of the RO in an even smaller size, though this particular SA has apparently sighted marketing materials… I guess it would also align to the brands overall efforts to garner female clientele

I heard new perpetual movement will debut in 2025 with the 150th anniversary of the brand. Will be a remaster.

Sound interesting on 15407 with YG.
So, will the SS version be upgraded too?

FHB appeared very excited about their new-found ability to make navy-blue ceramic, so that seems very likely.
