I got this box.
I didn't buy it in a Tag Heuer boutique.
I would ask them to check if they have the correct box.

It seems the Elegant's bracelet will fit on the Porsche Chronosprint, gives it a different look.

I prefer this one on the strap. Have I said before how much I love this watch? The only 42mm Carrera I could be very tempted by.

That looks great. Still feel the 42mm Ltd Ed released in the last 2yrs have been the best of all the chronographs releases.

The WoS Ltd Ed personally for me has been the stand out one. But also appreciate the Porsche editions (if you own a Porsche) & the recent colab with the Japanese Driver.

If I weren't the brokest I've been in a long time thanks to Porsche the car, I probably would've looked very seriously at buying Porsche the watch. I love the form factor of the 42mm glassbox and can't wait for more models to come out

For me, the glassbox design works better on this watch. Maybe its the choice of colors or just the porportions work better. After seeing it in real life I felt I need to make a place for this one some day. Maybe when my friend is ready to move it on, I will have a spot for it.

It's the larger proportions that make it look better, as the visible dial is maximized and the percentage used by the concave ring is minimized.

I think the full 3 subdials fill out the dial much better. I'm still a fan of the Skipper in 39mm as well.

This years 42m Seafarer will be similar to the Chronosprint where it fill the dial nicely with the 3 full subdials.

I keep seeing all the Vintage guys posting Seafarer and Abercrombie and Fitch models on Instagram quite often.

Same thing happened last year before the release of the Skipper. Pretty safe to assume there is a Seafarer coming.

Really?? Any idea if it's going to be Heuer only? Or have TAG Heuer genuinely stopped making those? ☹️ Last one was the Monaco France racing blue.

If it's a new glassbox, most likely it will be TAG Heuer branded. Just like the Skipper.

The Seafarer was actually branded "Abercrombie & Fitch", not Heuer. If it were to be Heuer branded, they should be calling it the Mareographe to be faithful to the original naming conventions. Come to think of it, even if TAG Heuer branded it should be a Mareographe (IMHO). 😵‍💫

Tag Heuer branded as @Mspeedster mentioned. Only Heuer Branded LE for 2024 will be a Green Monaco as far as I know. Sorry to disappoint.

I’m fine with the Tag branding, especially when it’s done nicely as it was done on this chronograph. Really looking forward to seeing what comes out at the end of the month.

Another limited Monaco? I suspect they must be considering retiring the Calibre 11 now. Even though I quite like the movement - I like the link with Dubois Depraz, since they were one of the original partners of the original Calibre 11.
