I don't know anything about it but Steven just posted a rendering of it. I really like it

Nice looking. I hope it's not more than 42mm.

Not a bad looking watch. I hope they can keep it thin like it looks in the rendering, and it doesn't end up over 15mm.

looks nice, just like 2-3 other watches I've seen that are similar.

In fairness, that dial marker layout has almost become the standard Dive watch marker layout since Rolex/Seiko came out with their early divers. Only difference is the super maxi design that a few Micro's have been using.....

I like it a lot and it's not a surprise as I loved the Cascais and this is very close. I like the dark case finish and clean dial with less prominent minute markers too, and the more pronounced chamfers along the lugs. Colors are .
I'll be on the lookout for more info

What caught my eye (more so than the Cascais) was the thinner / sterile bezel and baton hands. It's a really clean and simple look. Hopefully it's not large.
