None of my previous predictions came to life this year, so I'd same the same things over again. Pt Sub-C, RG GMT IIC with chocolate brown dial, SS GMT IIC with a black-green bezel ("Sprite"), YG DSSD on Oysterflex, and gold Daytona with ceramic bezel.

Yep, way too early.
But... I'm calling a 40 or 41 mm TOG

Sea dweller originally came out in 1967. That makes next year the 50th anniversary of that watch.

That's my bet....some special edition of the SD.

That's a good guess!! Maybe different colored ceramic bezel and dial for the SD, just like what they did with Submariner/Hulk.

"Diet" versions of the Coke, Pepsi and Root Beer watches. Same watch, but without the extra links.

That's probably a safe bet and one I'd look forward to.
