^ Still waiting for that "dislike" button when we need it. TAG Heuer's prices in 2023 - yikes. 🤨 🫨
At least we can count on higher prices in the next years 👍 how soon will 15k be the standard price for a steel Monaco limited edition? Two years? Three?

Showing up on C24 now, $15k. "One of 23" so not even individually numbered either.

Geez, that didn't take long. Apparently nothing on caseback that says Las Vegas either. 🤦

This is just lazy. The China LE at least had some thought put into it with the novelty factor on the caseback and the box. This is just a poor primary school art & craft project which someone did on the night before the submission

Is this going to be the trend going forward - pull up the old stock from boutiques, slap on a new reference number, call it a low production targeted limited edition, then make money off it.

Seems like genius if they can pull it off
All 23 were pre-sold prior to the GP, so they did pull it off.

But without any marking on it that says Las Vegas GP, it's hard to see it fetching $15k on the aftermarket.

So i suppose we can see 211AE, 211AF, etc. in the coming years.

When we learned of the China model, I thought 211AC was like an extension of the original's 211C. However if that was the case, this model should've been something like 211AC-1. If they are using a spreadsheet style scheme, wonder what happened to AA & AB?

I initially thought the same that the 211AC was an offshoot of the 211C - but clearly not the case.
I had mentioned the same about the spreadhseet naming convention earlier. The C11/C12 steel Monacos always followed CAW211A-Z convention, but there were omissions from the sequence - 211F/G/H/I/O/Q. So maybe that's what's happening with the 211Ax.

Seller dropped the price to $14.5K. hahaha!

I share the sentiment that it's kind of disappointing of TH to "slap this together" and that the only discernible difference between this and the China LE are the hole sizes on the strap?!?! Not sure this is the right strategy for getting into the top tier of watchmakers that TH wants to be...

I’m hoping to get some hands on time with this one tomorrow. Hopefully get some good photos. He really likes the watch as he just picked up the McQueen version and loves it. He’s just not sure which one he likes more. If he can get out of it with no loss of money, he will move on from it. The AD has been good about getting him the new releases but they just seem to come and go from his collection. The having to make a decision quickly and limited edition hype get the best of some.
