I asked recently because I would too, but I believe this is not happening. I'm not expecting anything new in terms of complications from the RO line

It’s funny to see many people asking for a dual time RO when you know how unpopular this model was (and still is) for many of us.

That’s a home run for the Code line and a relative value . Really really well done.

I said the same thing to my watch group. White gold case with aventurine dial is a decent price. One of the best codes I’ve seen for the price.

Amazing, but is the case steel or white gold.
Description says bezel is white gold, reference says NB (WG + ceramic) but display picture says steel 1

No idea how to read the time, but I guess that's what my phone is for. Watch is super cool. Price ($57.9k) is not insane for something really out of the ordinary.

Edit: watched the video, now I get it - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BXpnaxovZ50

It's easy as mobile phone. The arrow on hour point to minutes... and it looks really good on live pics...

Thanks for the video. Reading the time is actually quite clear with this setup. As someone who has the Code chrono version with ceramic middle, I’m on the fence on whether I wish I knew about this coming release versus wanting to add it as another cool Code.
Either way, it does say something about the possibilities of future Code releases.

Agreed. Except that’s the one I have, doh!

I do wonder though if maxing out at two codes if starwheel over movado all black minimalist style or the skeleton Chrono.

How about a non-tourbillon open worked code in steel

The good thing is that the chrono and starwheel aren’t redundant, imho. They look very different and provide a nice Code range. Although it becomes a harder choice to pick from amongst the other Code options you list since the all-black tourbillon is striking and the skeleton chrono is amazing.
The one thing about the starwheel that would need to change is the strap color.

Great move by AP here. Killer watch and something to show what the CODE can be.

Wow now that's a Code I can get behind, that dial is incredible. I'm not sure if the seconds hand is distracting or not, but otherwise I love it!
