This might be one of those watches that looks terrible in photos and great on the wrist?

What an absolute mish-mash of shite! Who designed this, a blind man? Why on earth has a watch called 'Monza', a race track, got a friggin' Pulsometer on it. There is literally nothing good about this watch.

I don’t think it’s that bad. The official photos don’t sell it but I’ve seen one on IG that looked interesting.

Is it better on the wrist?

I think case-wise it does wear better than the last Monza due to the lighter weight, it feels less lumpy. But it doesn't look very good IMO.

The box inner lining is done up in a forged carbon pattern though which is a nice touch.

This watch isnt for me (price- and design-wise), but what I really don't understand is TH's occasional obsession to re-use old model names for completely unrelated new watches...

The shape of the case is kinda similar to the recent monza. But obviously the answer is ‘desperately clinging onto their heritage, no matter how tenuously’.

It's a Monza case so.... it's a Monza. Like it or not.

This new Monza is so disgustingly, appallingly ugly that it’s actually impressive! Shite-tastic.

The price is the best bit - £11,450! That’s the peanut on the turd, so to speak.
