I think you're right, doc. Heck, I'd start saving for a WG version in that case. Then again, not sure if I could justify the extra $ simply for a ceramic bezel when there are plenty of WG near mint examples to be had!

A ceramic Daytona wouldn't surprise me. Maybe a platinum Sub? Who knows!

That would be cool. Too good to be true, though.

The YM is due for something. Then 2016 the Sub IMO. I have no idea what exactly what will be on the YM but it will be something as that particular model has been stagnant for awhile now.

very often then not, instead of predicting, threads like these become a "what's my wet dream watch" thread.

I think we'll see: gold Daytona on bracelet with a ceramic bezel, SS GMT IIC "Coke", new dials for DJ and SKD

I wish to get, but unlikely this year IMHO: RG Sub-C on factory rubber strap with GlideLock, Pt Sub-C on bracelet, white dial YM I, RG GMT IIC with a brown dial and brown bezel, 37-38mm Sub-C with white dial and white bezel (for the ladies)

I wish to get, but unlikely ever: full ceramic cased Sub-C or GMT IIC on a factory rubber strap, iridium Daytona

I don't think we get: 42mm Daytona or any new chrono with a date, any new versions of the Sub-C NoDate, any new versions of the steel Sub or SD or DSSD

I'm pretty sure we can all count on a slew of new ladies' DateJust with new dials.

But what else will we see?

TT or PM no-date SubC?

Platinum Sub?

New colors for the Platona?

Ceramic bezels in the 116520? (it's been 15 years since the release!)

Rootbeer GMT?

How about a 42mm "Daytona II"? Ok, now I'm getting a little nutty.

What will we see? I already can't wait!
It could be a bigger Daytona. I particularly would like a 116300 SS and yellow gold but but no sure if that it something successful. I think the Batman and 116334 did not have any success at least from my perspective.

No predictions, but imho the Daytona needs an overhaul. Would like to see a larger Daytona with ceramic bezel and (preferably) a date.

Oh, and a platinum Exp II

A bigger chronograph in the 42mm range. Doesn't have to be a Daytona II, it can be an all new model.

Would love to see them do the 40mm Explorer with the maxi dial and orange hand from the 42mm, but clearly no chance of that!

I'm hoping for an Air-King II that will be just a little bit bigger, perfectly proportioned and with reserved, classic styling.

Anyone else see this happening?

There is a reason they very quietly took the name out of production, instead of of doing a final, farewell anniversary edition or some such. The name is coming back.

More blue dials. How about a 39mm Exp with a blue dial! :)

With all the ceramic experimentation with Tudor, I'm suspecting we will see some ceramic on a long overdue model. The daytona is due for a revamp.

I think the most probable outcome will be more dial options for the Ladies DJ, DD & DDII, and SKD. Plus I think we will see a Ceramic Daytona in WG with a new dial.

I'm afraid an upgraded SS wont come for a few years.

Excited to see what will come next...I must admit that the current selection of watches are enough for me. I want so many already from the current selection (SD, BLRO, DJII)...I hope they just come out with nothing I like!!! haha
