The watch is mine, the champagne is for me, but the orange box behind is not mine. Congrats to a friend getting the Bamford.

I have to say this seems to be the first Aquaracer model that looks better in live shots than it does in TAG's website renders. I still like it and expect I'll be hunting them on the secondary market! But I just can't pay nearly $4000 for a watch with a Sellita in it, when others are offering Sellita chronographs for $1k or less : |

(Meanwhile, I've spent just a tad bit less on something else, and you guys are not gonna like it, lol)

C’mon, no teasing allowed!

Prob gonna have it shipped next week since I'll be driving upstate for the holiday tomorrow. It's not a TAG (or a Heuer) and it's gonna piss Rob off a bunch haha

Okay, this makes no sense. If I won't like and they won't like it then.... what's left?

Maybe they will, maybe they won't. Those with an eye for classics will probably like it more than others. You're gonna hate it though lmao. It's small and very vintage-y

Okay, well that makes sense but why would they hate it? Sounds right up most of them's alley!

Ooh, it's not one of the Squale/Blancpain 35mm dive watch limited editions is it? Was very tempted by the no radiobino version myself.

Nice review.
But he's mistaken assuming that this is the only Aquaracer in titanium. There are a few others, but they are PVD coated, so it's less obvious. WAY208C.FC6383

No. But close (it is not a Blancpain)

Hmm, intriguing. Now I'm confused. A midsize Tudor Sub perhaps?

Closer! It's not a Tudor though. And it's a new watch, not vintage (though it certainly doesn't look it!)

A Breguet ladies watch perchance?

Haha not quite - I've not (yet) got the impulse to buy a watch purely to troll you LOL. Funny though, another watch friend of mine bought a Breguet the other day (type XXI of course) and I realized it was the only photo of a modern Breguet I've ever seen on an actual wrist!

Watch will be here today so... soon...
