See the Chrono24 listing for images of the caseback, where they put the rabbit

Yeah, but the front.... doesn't say rabbit does it? And if you didn't know it was rabbit, what would you think the marks on the dial were supposed to be exactly?

No it doesn't (a plus, I think), but the dial doesn't even resemble rabbit to me even if I do know what it's supposed to be!

I think it's more just an excuse to play with the design, rather than actually trying to make it fit with the theme.

I liked the tiger one last year, this is just a bit daft.
The strange thing is the Tiger was also released this year, back in Jan., not last year. It's still the Year of the Tiger. TAG is getting a head start for next year with the Rabbit.
I would like this watch if it didn't have all that rabbit hair on the dial 馃槖
But finally a Carrera strap without crocodiles! 馃憤
The Tiger Carrera was also not a croc strap. I think this has more to do with certain Asian countries prohibiting such skins, such as China which must be the largest market for these watches.

Doesn鈥檛 China have a huge black market in products the rest of the world wouldn鈥檛 touch normally? A bit hypocritical banning some skins.

Not to mention a complete disregard for human rights...

Unexpectedly just tried this one on, and the gold Porsche Carrera too. Looks better jn the flesh and smaller. Even allowing for the watch I am wearing its a very small 44mm.
