Hope the layout and writing will be more in line with the current QP and not the ultrathin QP... and hope at 39mm it will not have a wrong 52 week indicator...

Cant share details but one thing is for sure: it will blow your mind.

Edit: it’s the kind of QP that will make Patek rethink its QPs. Just like the Dato made Patek rethink its chronos in the 90s. Except this time, i dont think Patek can catch up. Because they dont have a Renaud&Papi.

[PP&AP]

You’re talking about something different than the five step crown controlled QP, right?

You teasing too much

Can't even imagine what they did beside a full crown operated qp... just hope the layout of writing will be circular like current qp... don't like the one of the ultra thin that goes to center of the subdial...

[inadeje]

Yes, I’d be keen to read any insider knowledge you guys get hold of even if it is just rumors

[TheHolyLuck]

50th aniversary of Royal Oak was disapointing to say the less.
The already release a lot of new configurations every year.

Maybe a couple of nice code with new complications ?

Don’t agree about 2022 but each to their own.

I also fully expect a new Ceramic non chronograph RO.

[Rollieo]

No idea about specific references.

A number of limited releases, maybe a new line!?!? Patek has the Aquanaut to the Nautilius - where the Aquanaut had felt like the little more nimble and sporty brother to the Nautilius. Now the Cubitius - can’t put my finger on what that is compared to the Nautilius yet.

The RO has the ROO, where the ROO seems like the beast big brother to the RO. Maybe the RO needs an “Aquanaut” line as well.

I don't know any rumors, but my guesses (some more obvious then others):

More sand gold
Dual time CODE
New crown controlled QP movement

But all I really want is a reboot of the ghost in 43, or a Ti 43 with salmon dial. Otherwise, just hoping I get an allocation of some already produced models.

Sand gold jumbo or QP

Rather proud of myself for recognizing just how good this one is when it was first released!

Nice! I wonder why they discontinued the dual time.

I dont know how well it was selling but the movement was not in house

[AEV]

I am expecting watches which will be produced only during 2025 and others which will remain in the catalog after that.
New QP has already been discussed.
I am expecting ceramic Jumbo.

You and me both, brother... you and me both....

[gretch6364]

I do love the idea of a ceramic 41mm time only.

You will get a Dual Time CODE and you will like it!

[robertengel]

The reason I would love to see a dual time code is that it means they made a new dual time movement that they can finally put back into the RO case, make it 39 mm and it will have a very core following in my opinion, but doubt it will happen anytime soon.
