 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
