Hi all - the link above takes you to a countdown timer for what I presume is the Basel show and the release of the 20,000. There is a teaser pic behind the timer... which is at 15 days, 6 hours, 48 minutes as I type this. Looks MASSIVE - but all I can make out is the square date window at 3, the huge concave marked inner bezel and some qtr hr markers on the outside bezel, with a huge shouldered crown and minutes at 9. If the shield symbol is actually red, then the dial on this one is --- silver?? I'm probably off target, but this is gonna be a huge watch. Might it have the world's first 10mm thick crystal? That would be a big puppy for the big-wristed men, I reckon. The pic I want to see is the 20000 feet crushing the 12000 feet crushing that Doxa, the last two parts of which are a great photo on the site here. Pretty soon - we're gonna need to strap these things to our legs - cos wrists are too small to handle 'em! :) There are some very intersting releases coming out of Basel this year, from what I read in the forums. Shadow Hublot, anyone? Now, where did I leave that lottery ticket...??? Keep the faith and have a good day, all! IanM hand6.gif

Good eye Ian....very cool !  ...looks like Charmex/Swiss Military want to stay in the record books with the release of the Rolex Deep Sea...the 12,000 footer is a masterpiece in itself so this new 20,000 ft must really be something! yahoo.gif

Great news, I hope it will not grow in size. 12000 looks to big on my wrist.
