Meow. I like it.

But now that they're all revealed, I don't know if I will ever want a modern Monaco unless pump pushers make a comeback. Only modern one that tickles my fancy with flirtatious overtures is the France LE from 2017.

The France LE is indeed fantastic.

The Monochrome photos are stunning as usual. The weak point of this latest one is the high-reflective subdials. If they had been matte or more subdued, it would have been great.

Agree. In fact, I would have liked the dials to be even less contrasting in color, I wish they used a matte grey, similar in shade to the lettering used on the watch. Also, I would have preferred the case to have been a dark grey or black and the pushers & crown matching with the case. This would have made watch 5 much more desirable for me, it would have given it a more complete "stealth" look.

Yeah; this appears to be a common impression. Full stealth would probably have been much better.

Ah, no.... pinched off Monochrome!

I guessed it had come from somewhere but the way you posted, it looked as though you had been collecting the set steathily for a grand reveal. That would have been cool.

The 50th anniversary models have been pleasant, but I was somehow expecting more than just a dial and hands change (for the most part). I knew in reality this would be the case, but still....

A dark lord would have been cool, but just hoped that it would have been the launch of a new case I guess with round pushers. A PVD case, a CF case, a Titanium case would have fitted nicely in with the missing eras I’d have thought.

Yes, I think that’s fair. I had hoped that of the five there would be one “classic” and one “modern”..not sure we really got that

In these shots I love the latest edition...makes it so hard to judge these until you see one in the metal...but with only 169, you have to make the call before they’re in the store 😵‍💫

Red is still my favourite. It was my favourite when I saw all the renders and it’s still my favourite now. 😀

Given that they will all be sought after due to the limited release of 169 and further reduced to 119 (as I cant see box sets being split up) what are peoples opinions as to which will be the most sought after, not necessarily peoples favourite but which will be the hardest to find …..

I think most of us would say the 80s & 90s are the top two.

Good question... I can imagine they will be around for a while until the flippers take their cut, once that's settled though I imagine they will become harder to find. Be interesting to see how the prices go... probably never going to go down (at least on the first three).

I think I agree with the 80s and 90s being the top 2, but I think the 70s may be the hardest to get once the flippers have gone and the market settles … interesting to see ...
