Some follow-up to this one. A blog/publication called The Wrist Watch Review has released some more details of the Astrographic ahead of Zodiac's official release on Monday. I find it hard to believe this information was supposed to be released in this manner. I have added the link below and the details and specs of the watch as reported in the WWR write-up.
THE ZODIAC ASTROGRAPHIC IS BACK FROM OUTER SPACE
Brand & Model: Zodiac Astrographic
Price: $1,295
References: ZO6606, ZO6607
MSRP: $1,295
Case size: 40mm x 43mm
Movement: STP-13 automatic
Case material: polished/brushed stainless steel
Attachment: 18mm bracelet
Water resistance: 10 ATM
Limited edition: 182 pieces of each reference being produced
For anyone interested in these, Worn & Wound has these for sale on their site even though Zodiac still does not. More pics too.
INTRODUCTION HERE
BUY THEM HERE
These limited edition Zodiacs can be sourced significantly cheaper from Page & Cooper assuming you are shipping to a non-VAT country. As low as $1060 USD depending on the exchange rate with the 5% off code. And they still show in-stock.

Yea, same with Watches.com and a few other retailers. I was just posting them at Worn and Wound because it was the very first place you could get them, even before you could buy from Zodiac or other popular ADs like Topper. Do you have plans to order one?

The Orion Hellcat
Should be open to preorders later this month.
Cost will be $600.00
Specs:
• 39mm Diameter
• 20mm Lug Width
• 47mm Lug to Lug
• 10.5mm Thickness (Caseback to Crystal)
• Movement: Miyota 9015
• Crystal Material: Sapphire
• Lume: Blue BGW9
It sounds like pre-orders for this will begin very soon. I think that red dial looks great. Tough to say from one photo whether it is the same as the Sylph or a bit different. Edit: I just asked him and he said it is the same red but it may look different due to a different crystal shape and thickness and no blue AR.
