But if the "Le Mans" boxes were in fact a mix up, my Spidey sense is tingling! Could there be a very limited number of special "Le Mans" Titans coming in August around the time of the Le Mans 24 race? Or maybe a different Le Mans Monaco to celebrate 50 years of the movie?
This is beginning to sound likely. However I haven’t heard any little birds about a Le Mans issue.

Exciting either way, lets hope there will be a LeMans edition 😎

Or.. the Titan might have been intented to have been a Lemans release for 2020 but got corona delayed and released now instead? Maybe originally a first version of the box was produced and then got shipped with some watches by accident

Could be. That aligns with DC's previous hunch. Hopefully he'll come back with something definitive. But if there is another secret watch coming for Le Mans, he won't be at liberty to say. However, he's previously indicated he didn't think this is the case.

True, and since he is silent this is proof that there is in fact a LeMans edition coming this year 😲

I'll start spreading the rumours right away 👍

For what it's worth, I haven't heard anything about another Monaco this year. But I surely would love to be surprised!

I asked the question and was also told that the Le Mans box was not for the Titan, but no further explanation was forthcoming...

No more titanium Monacos. Something a bit closer to the imagery of the movie would be my guess.

My Boutique contact told me this is not a Le Mans edition. Also said they were sent the wrong box. Not sure what to make of this. 😵‍💫

The real world pics I've seen also do not say Le Mans Edition on the box.

You got that right! And this pic doesn't show the 844 "Monin" Acquaracer (to be delivered in SEP) and the green Monaco. 🤦
If you’re looking to hire a heritage director for the Hubert museum, let us know.

My sources have told me we are done with Monaco for the year, so I expect not.

Aligns with what other sources have said, but there have been surprises before.
So what's the box for?
Yeah, I feel something funny is going on.
I can get behind the theory that the boxes were printed for last year's LM24 race but the watch got a delayed release. But if that's the answer, DC should've had confirmation back from TH by now. So I feel like there's more to this story that hasn't been told.

I actually hope there isn't a surprise, my marriage may not survive if it's something I gotta have! 😗

But what would a 'Le Mans' Monaco look like? Not Gulf obviously.... so what exactly? Black asphalt dial, with a French flag on it?

I fear DC may be in the same position as my contact at TAG, unable to confirm or deny as either will give the game away.

It only gives the game away if there's something else coming. 😉

Why not Gulf? Just because there are rumors of a 2022 Gulf release doesn't mean there can't be another surprise this year. They could even do something like the first Monaco Gulf, that wasn't an "official" Gulf as it had no Gulf Logo on that one.

Or it could be a different take on the Blue McQueen, with something special about the dial treatment to mark the 50th Anniversary of the movie.

Well... I just got contacted by my TH Boutique indicating that TH Corporate made a "mistake" with the boxes.


The Titan Monaco should not have the "Le Mans" wording. TH is sending out the 'correct' inserts to those of us affected.

So what, they just printed some random 'Le Mans' inserts for no reason at all.... 😵‍💫

Wonder if it's nothing more than a sticker to place over the wrong wording. I'd keep the box as is, it's now even more of a collectable.
