I think so as well. Gonna be more expensive than bel canto
I thought this too. But then I asked about it on my visit to Maidenhead HQ in December and was told it wasn’t a Tourbillon but something halfway between a BC and a Tourbillon. This left me more confused than when I initially asked!
And though I've got my credit card locked down "pending", my thoughts include
"never wanted a tourbillon (but never attached to a skeleton dial before CW did it)",
"still not bonded with the BC (but not yet handled one)" and
"wasn't blown away by the chequerplate dial Twelve (but you try to prise my Twelve X Ti out of my hands)".

Challenging times ahead methinks. :oops:

Design, marketing and influencers notwithstanding, the urge to buy comes from within. :D
Yeah, I know. I care very little for marketing and influencers. But CW is really nailing it with design lately. I've said to myself like 5 times in the past year "this will be my last watch for a while" (with 'while' >= 1 year).

When it comes to watches, it really looks like I can resist anything except temptation.

I've found out that there is some kind of in-person preview event for this upcoming release happening this afternoon. Anyone know anything about this?

Apparently there will be more details shared around the 20th April and the pricing will be in line with the Bel Canto - excited to see what comes up!

Seems like CW just don’t stop, their designs are top notch and they keep churning them out! My wallet is not looking forward to this release!

If it's a Tourbillon then I'm going to be broke.

Holy cow swiss cheese. Is there a holy grail in watch making that CW might be challenging? :D

I just don't see where cheese itself fits in.

Where`s this photo from? I can't find it on their website or any other official page.

I think this new big release will be unveiled on April 23rd.

In the newest email from the CW titled "Watches & Wonders – live from the sofa" they end the article with "What an exciting month April is in the life of a watch enthusiast. But we must wait until the month’s out for this armchair journalist’s take on the launch of the month. I’ll see you all here on April 23rd."

I`m so excited about this and I do hope this watch will be as game changing as Bel Canto was. I have huge expectations and maybe someone that`s already know more can confirm if the new release will be as avant gard and structural as Bel Canto without going into details?

As stated;- "Double page spread in Oracle."
