All I can say to that is: Yeah right!
They wouldn't be able to consecrate without Roman approval. They officially, on their main website, came out against the consecration of +Faure, if you recall. Once they did that, they locked themselves in morally speaking. They can't criticize the consecration of +Faure and then do the exact same thing a few years later -- talk about hypocrisy and contradiction!
Are you seriously saying that hypocrisy and contradiction would be an obstacle?

I wonder if they would change the date just so to make +Williamson look like a fool...?

Yeah, I guess so...but still. They'd have to have SOME lame excuse. What would it be?

"Do as I say, not as I do!"
"Only those in the SSPX may consecrate without a Papal mandate."
"Your organization has to start with Society of Saint P____ to do a legit Episcopal consecration without Papal mandate."
"Your organization has to be based in Menzingen to do a legit Episcopal consecration without Papal mandate."
Give me a break! I hope anyone wouldn't fall for such pathetic excuses.

Bishop Williamson: Swiss Diocesan Bishop Will Consecrate Two SSPX Bishops



Former SSPX-Bishop Richard Williamson claimed in a March 3 homily (video below) that Chur Bishop Vitus Huonder, 76, will consecrate two bishops for the Society of St Pius X (SSPX) on April 28. Huonder runs one of the world's most liberal dioceses.

Williamson added that his news is hearsay but “pretty darn certain” and that French Father Christian Bouchacourt is one of the bishops elect.

Huonder is expected to resign on April 21. He will then reside in an SSPX school in Switzerland.

The consecrations would take place with Pope Francis’ approval. Francis received Huonder on March 4 in an audience.

I thought the SSPX typically just ignores any complaints.
