Apparently all 42mm and 44mm chrono models will be receiving the following updates.

1) Better cyclop, same as the Tantalum requested by Angus i think

2) Date font as per gen

3) Bezel brushing more gen like

4) Better caseback engravings

Oh wow can’t wait to see this happen. Actually we’ve started seeing this being put into realization. Starting with the Tantalum and then the FC 44mm as well. Hope to see more of the upgrade to more models for sure. Time will tell everything I guess ;)

I suspected the tantalum release date was delayed for a year, so they can sell existing stock before releasing new revisions.

Not sure. But JF has word out already. Should be soon if not immediate.

Tachy gap is still a bridge too far. Only a new movement can solve that problem

I think they could develop an eccentric tachy that could visually make the tachy-to-date gap look infinitely better.

Thin hands could easily be introduced if the factories could be bothered

I was ready somewhere here or on the sister forum rumours about an updated movement, fingers crossed

Custom tachy can do the job even if it's in a A7750 movement. New specs are needed - just less 1mm in their present tachy design/specs.
