    PRS release schedule

    Now I know I'm on a hiding to nothing asking for dates, but do we have a vaguely accurate order in which the new watches are reaching our grubby wrists?

    E.g.

    1. Speedbird III (Q1 2008)
    2. PRS-10 (Q? 2008)
    3. PRS-5 (Q? 2008)
    4. DNQ (Q? 200?)
    5. etc (Q? 200?)

    :?:

    Well on last look these were the models in development.

    PRS-5 (Prototype stage)
    PRS-9 CAF (Development)
    PRS-10 (Prototype stage)
    PRS-16 Speedbird GMT (Development On Hold for Movements)
    PRS-19 RS Trench (Development awaiting movement)
    PRS-21 Dreadnought GMT (Development awaiting movement)
    PRS-22 Speedbird III (Prototype stage)
    PRS-24 Dreadnought Super Quartz (Development awaiting movement)

    As far as schedule I think we will see the ovious ones by mid year I dought any will be released in Q1 (5, 10 & 22). The rest is anyone guees but the recent talk about the 9 is very good as I have waited for this one for years, especially since a silver case may be in the works.

    Looking at Eddie's prices, looks like she may still be . . . they are all pre-90s prices.
