Nope, 5 were available in the UK. The error was they inputted 10 or something said the excuse.

Oh, that sucks!

^^Haha, I can only afford one watch this year, if even one. So I'm going to wait until I see everything that TAG Heuer releases before making a decision.

Yup I鈥檓 also waiting to see other releases this year, but this one takes the top spot for now ::rimshot::

If you are going to see all releases before deciding, lets hope what you want doesnt turn out to be a CAW211T situation with 50 pcs limited release.
Don't worry, my trigger finger will be ready, should something super special come along. 馃槈
The problem with the CAW211T is that it looks almost identical to the CAW211R, which is why I hesitated. Then BOOM gone! 馃う
And who would've thought TH would celebrate something as lame as Gulf's first win? Totally unexpected. This year I'm ready.

I believe the leather strap is the one to get. To offset the weight and feel of the 44mm 馃憤

Had a chance to see & try on this watch today. It looked so much nicer in person, I was impressed! 馃憤
The 44mm size wasn't too bad on my wrist, which was a pleasant surprise. It does wear smaller than it looks and somehow belies its dimensions.

It even looked good to me in the plastic wrap. These crappy phone pics do not do the watch justice.

Looks more like gray asphalt, maybe even dark weathered concrete at this angle. But still not quite silver.馃槈
And you have lovely nails btw...馃槙

Mrs speedster maybe?


Yeah that is looking like a very gnarly gravel as opposed to freshly laid asphalt.

My wife can't be bothered to join me in a watch store, she gets bored.馃槵
The sales girl was nice enough to prop up the watch so I could get a better shot. 馃槜

Only thing to do is to swipe the CC and be merry ever after 馃憤馃憤 @Mspeedster
After seeing the watch in person, it might be a contender for purchase. But I'm still waiting until I see more of TH's 2021 releases.

I think it's one of those watches that has to be seen in person to be fully appreciated. I was lukewarm at best after seeing the launch photos, but in person the watch has a "presence" about it. Its size is still larger than I'd like, but it doesn't feel larger than my 43mm F1, even though it is.

I purchased one, the version with bracelet. I'd like to add the leather strap at some point if available.
It doesn't feel as big as I expected.

Congrats! 馃憤
You'll probably save money by adding the leather strap later vs. buying with the strap then adding the bracelet later.
