Looks good. Boy, seems I had a good eye in choosing the original model of this F1; now all of the new editions use it as a variation.

I very nearly bought that same original F1 Indy, I remember when the 2000s era re-editions came out they were nice but not special enough to upgrade over my '91 model, then the Indy was released and it looked amazing with the all metal bezel. Placed an order and waited, and waited, and waited, then was offered a very good deal on something else and switched. Wish I had been patient enough to get one though.

TAG HEUER AND PATRICK DEMPSEY AT THE INDIANAPOLIS 500

For more than 150 years, TAG Heuer has stood at the forefront of designing exceptional timing instruments used for competitive sports, most notably automotive racing, in which capturing the tiniest fraction of a second can determine the victor. To commemorate this remarkable milestone and to celebrate the “The Greatest Spectacle in Racing,” TAG Heuer friend of the brand and race car driver, Patrick Dempsey, waved the green flag inviting 2015 Indy Car drivers to start their engines.

The new Indy 500 keeps thinks simple - a striking anthracite dial with a subtle chequered flag pattern and two bold red lines. The watch come with a very masculine looking steel strap fully articulated for maximum comfort.
