I think the BB58 movement is 6.5mm thick so theyd struggle to fit a GMT and date into the case. GMT only, poooossibly. Then again, no reason why they can't add a mm or so to the case.

According to this the ETA 2893-2 which has GMT hand and date is 4.1mm thick

Wow, good spot. So you can buy an OTP movement with GMT and date that is thinner than ththe BB58 movement.

I’d say there will definitely be a GMT version coming although Tudor normally drip release their new versions and from memory it took hem a few years to release the BB GMT.
