路I believe it's more common to say 911 F, as to not be confused with Jaguar. What model is your 911 by the way?
Mine鈥檚 a G, 3.2 Carrera

路Honestly I'm not paying much attention to the H02 Monacos until the crown is properly moved to the left. More importantly than tradition, I think it just balances the case out better.
Interesting too that the "radial" dials are placed on the H02s while the C11s continue on with the original square / rectangular markers. Which is a much better look for the square case too, IMO
Interesting, though.... There have only been 20 Monaco reference numbers since 1969 that have had a left-hand crown. I've counted more than 100 with a right-hand crown.
The right-hand crown variants are still super cool, but the left-hand crown IS one of the hallmark design cues of Monaco in my opinion and without it, the design feels imbalanced and much less desirable.
And I've heard that the 21st left-hand crown Monaco will be announced less than a month from now! 馃槈

路True that!
Speaking of the 844. Anyone else excited to see the 844 tribute out in the wild? I think it will be awesome and cant wait to see them pop up on instagram

路As a Mustang Bullitt owner, I'd be all over this - as long as the crown was on the left!
If you're big into McQueen and Bullitt, you need to get yourself the Benrus he wore in the movie. That's the Bullitt watch.

Since this pic was taken, Hubert has also added the 00s Monaco 50 (also a C11). But I don't think I've ever seen a C12 or H02 Monaco in his collection. @Hubert, what do you say?

路LOL; I was out to get my vaccine and I'm just catching-up on all the action! You guys have been busy!
Yes, I only have modern "Calibre 11" Monacos.
A (CAW211A) - 40th Anniversary
B (CAW211B) - Grey dial reissue
C (CAW211C) - Silver dial
D (CAW211D) - Striped McQueen
P (CAW211P) - "Production" Blue McQueen
R (CAW211R) - 50th Anniversary of Gulf Racing
T (CAW211T) - 50th Anniversary of Gulf 1st Victory
W (CAW211W) - Monaco 50th Anniversary - 80s
X (CAW211X) - Monaco 50th Anniversary - 90s
Y (CAW211Y) - Monaco 50th Anniversary - 2000s
I am looking to add another one this year to continue the trend. 馃槈
There's something about the hefty subregisters of the H02 Monacos that I find a bit unrefined. That said, if this green one had been a C11, I would have gotten it.

路So does anyone have more than 10 of one watch? I don't, but Snowy must have more than ten classic F1s...

@Snowy is much harder to keep track of. He also has an incredible collection. But he works very quietly behind the scenes. Unlike Hubert, who's usually one of the first to get a newly released watch, Snowy takes his time. Then months later, there's a wrist shot but with no fanfare or mention of it being a new watch. 馃槈
From my memory, within about the last 6 months or so, Snowy's new additions include: Red Monaco Historique, Monaco Gulf 1st Victory, Fujiwara Fragment F1, Hodinkee Dato 45, the new Senna F1 Calibre 16, and who knows what else... 馃槜

路This is just his regular classic F1 collection, he also has limited pieces (including 3 or 4 of the Ukyo Katayama). Still Hubert's collection is in a different league because the F1s are relatively affordable.

路Not sure about this though. Remember that Snowy also has vintage Carreras, both Monzas, cal1887 bullhead, multiple Monacos incl Monaco sixtynine and that futuristic looking LS 360 and the Japan green etc
He bought these fairly recently: Red Monaco Historique, Monaco Gulf 1st Victory (Gulf King), Fujiwara Fragment F1, Hodinkee Dato 45, & Senna F1 Calibre 16, but that's just the tip of the iceberg.
