New Link model

I was surprised today when I found at two different jewelry stores in my location (I´m in Guadalajara, Mexico) a new Link model I haven't seen before and that it's not even shown yet in TAGHeuer's web page. It is a nice SS automatic watch of the GMT type, with an attractively finished gray face and an analogic calendar subdial, printed in red, at 0600 (think in the Tiger Woods Link and you'll have the overall picture). Traditional late model Link bracelet. However, it differs from the Carrera Twin Time because it sports three different, chronograph type pushbuttons at 2, 4 and 8 o'clock positions. Those pushers are screw-in protected, just as those of the Rolex Daytona and some Omega Seamaster chronographs. The pusher at 8 corrects the calendar. The pusher at 2 corrects the hour hand, which then becames the local time, forward. The pusher at 4 corrects the hour hand backward. I can assume then that the additional, red arrow pointed hour hand maintains the home time. Any additional information will be welcome. Regards.
