So this Titan Monaco is supposed to be limited to 500 pieces, right? But I can find no mention of this 500 number on the TAG Heuer website, unless I'm just missing it.
The Green Monaco has it clearly stated:
--
The TAG Heuer Monaco Green Dial celebrates the Grand Prix de Monaco Historique of which TAG Heuer is the Official Sponsor and Timekeeper. This never-seen-before dial color, a deep and subtle green, introduces a fresh take. Markings engraved on the oscillating mass and the column wheel of its in-house movement are also green. This special edition limited to 500 pieces will enchant watch aficionados.
--
But the Titan description only says:
The history-filled silver dial is paired with a resolutely modern and lightweight titanium Grade 2 case, solidifying the rebellious nature of this legend. A charismatic addition to the collection.
Also, the Green Monaco celebrates the GP de Monaco Historique. But is this Titan model celebrating something? I can find no mention of this on TAG Heuer's website either.

The email that I just received clearly states 500 pieces.
Rear one
For some reason I find that red flash on the 12 very distracting on this one. It looks fine on the black one, but not here. In a photo I saw where the second hand was reset it wasn't clear whether it actually had this or not and to me it looked better just pure silver with the red hand...
Two things from your article. You mention that TH calls this a "rubber look" alligator strap, what's up with that? I want my alligator to look like alligator, not rubber. But the strap does look nice.
Hhmmm I think it’s still conservative. I’m glad they didn’t go for the red subdial hands but red hour markers might have looked nice though.
As you might expect, behind the scenes beats the tried and trusted Calibre 11, which is virtually unchanged since 1969 and a genuine piece of horological history.
