Whilst nosing in a local AD today I did notice that some (all?) of the prices had risen, £5400 for a S McQ Monaco! does this mean secondhand values are rising too?

Was it the purple Monaco, was it? Eh? 😉😉😉
No, nothing particularly interesting. I think that's due later on in the year, I only saw the imminent releases.
My Boutique sales person just contacted me about a different Monaco that's going to be released very soon (probably at the Monaco GP). Guess it wasn't that one either? 😗

This new Indy F1 doesn't do much for me.

My favorite is this one.

Nope, not a Monaco at all 😀

Yeah and it will be very limited.

Only 50 is what I've been told.

But I don't think this Monaco is on my must have list. I was never a huge fan of the original this one pays tribute too. Having said that, if it was a close re-edition rather than a tribute, I might think harder about it. Are you getting one @Hubert?

No proper Indy logo and I am out on that new F1. I appreciate the pagoda attempt, but I want to see the wings

Ah, I think I know which one you're talking about.... it's rather expensive IIRC.

Or maybe not, because I didn't think that was limited at all... 😒

According to Google this watch was put on the website 6 days ago.... it's a bit odd that none of the ADs have put it up, nor have TAG advertised it on Instagram. Have they accidentally put it up or something?

Yeah, I am a bit disappointed on the "homage" approach, instead of a more faithful re-issue, but if that's how they are treating this, thus making it unlikely that they'll produce another one any time soon, I decided I am putting a deposit for one. Knowing TH's track record on renders, I am hopeful the real thing will look better.

Rose gold.... fancy.
That's the part that I don't like! 😵‍💫

And the red accents, instead of orange. 🫨

And also the TAG Heuer logo instead of Heuer. 😡

Nevertheless, I'm sure it will be a very sharp looking Monaco in its own right and highly collectable given the super low numbers. 👍

You gonna be mega fabulous in rose gold Hubert 👍
LOL; I will be starting a new job next month, so I will count this as my "gold" watch after 22 years of service!

Yes, that is a bit unfortunate. Lost opportunity to do a more faithful re-edition.
