And they're also saying there is something new replacing the co-pilot module. Anyone got an idea?

Dunno but the Co-Pilot is/was a very good idea with some bad engineering/financial issues:

- enormously overpriced
- no SQ movement
- no fit to watch case nowadays like the "normal" end links
- only moderate waterresistance
- no back-light
- no really needed functions (Take the 7750-driven CSO e. g.: you see at the same time the hour, minute, second, chronograph and day-date. E. g. in case of the Aerospace you cannot have all these functions on the dial. The Co-Pilot could have done the rest but it does not.)

Hope the replacement will have all these solved...
