Happy New Year All!!

So I went into one of my local dealers here in Chicago to poke around.

Started browsing by the connected (as if I need another) and the sales gentleman mentioned there is a training coming up in February of 2022.. said he suspects a new connected model.

Anyone else hear anything? Thoughts if this is accurate?

that would be the standard release cycle...Let's hope Gen 3 bands remain compatible...

I think Gen4 will be not Modular and not CM45 straps compatible either, and for sure it will be 'Made in China'… so we have to take care of our Swiss Made Gen2 Modular 45 👍, because it seems that there will be no other smartwatch like it 🥰

Made in China I can confirm. I even can tell you the factory name!

Yes 🤔… looking for 'SBR8A' at Google you can find some interesting documents and drawings.
I have found information about its bluetooth and WiFi, but nothing about LTE…

I will not post here but many drawings can be found. Maybe some pictures too. Just maybe 😉
Damn, I'm striking out. Found the FCC filings, but couldn't find any pictures and only diagram was the one I posted earlier.

So no more news on the 2022 model ? I really hope the bands from Gen 3 will remain compatible... ;-)
