He knows that very keen on the Monaco & has loved this new release, he has enquired on the Tag website regarding availability. Is that his best bet?
If it's sold out on the website, it's best to just check the TH website regularly (like several times a day) rather than wait for an email notification. Sometimes an "out of stock" watch can just suddenly appear on the website as "available" and then be gone again in no time.
But I would suggest he call his closest TAG Boutique and see if they can get a hold of one. They have access to all stock within country and should be able to mail the watch anywhere in their given region. Not sure about international cross region ordering though.
Question to all of you: Which do you think is the better Dark Lord tribute? Carbon skeleton or Titanium rose gold?

the Only Watch Monaco has H/M hands more reminiscent of the Autavia Orange Boy. I think the Bling Lord is closer.
I also prefer the black Ti-DLC case over the carbon look.
If you're referring to the shade of orange, it's probably more the lighting in that pic. In the side by side photo further above, the shade of orange looks very close to the original's hands to my eyes.
No, I mean the hour & minute (H/M) hands. The 74033 has plain lume-filled hands; the Only Watch Monaco has hands with orange and luminous inserts that resemble the Orange Boy Autavia hands more than those on the 74033.
The new one has polished & luminous H/M hands with white tips but no inserts so they look closer to the original's.
So far it seems like a slam dunk for the Titanium. I asked the question because I'm kind of split between the two.
Normally I don't care for skeleton watches, but the Only Watch Monaco has some advantages as a Dark Lord tribute IMHO. It has orange hands and cream hour markers, like the original. In addition, the hour markers are inside the circle, again more like the original. But the swirly carbon case, skeleton dial, and faux bracelet imprinted leather strap gives it a very different aesthetic compared to the Titanium rose gold.

Rose gold for me too, both the skeleton Monacos look a mess to me.
