How would that aid legiblity though? I get that it's more impressive that way, but as a chronograph it wouldn't really make sense from a usability point of view...
I misread @El Matarife's post and thought he was suggesting the seconds hand to be in the 2nd subregister (instead of the 3rd), to match what we currently have in the current Calibre 11 models.

That’s the watch available now - £5,620 - The rise in watch prices is getting quite scary.

Nice watch though. Just not the right time to buy for me.

Yeah, the price has sneaked up to $6850 USD, more than the Monaco 50s or the Carrera 160 pair. Even the Carrera Montreal has crept up to $6750 which is more than the $6450 Silver Carrera. I had been under the impression that all of them were going to be around $6500.

I'm still waiting on live pics of this Monaco to decide, but given its price, I'm probably going to pass.

Seems to be a common theme with the high prices of new models.

You'd think the current economic climate would temper the price rises, but apparently not!

He also seems super passionate about Mercedes (perhaps more so). Reminds me of someone... ...ehem @Albert-AMG 😉

It's better than the renders, but still a pass for me.

I agree. It is a far cry from the previous, more subtle ACM editions.

It's interesting with the juxtaposition between the metallic sunburst center and lacquered-looking periphery. I fault TAG for many things, but their sunburst dials are truly excellent.

I think the vestigial running seconds hand on these H02 Monacos is just gross 🤮

Sadly, it's a sign of more things to come 🤦

I see this has disappeared from the website already - out of stock.
