Well, the Fragments are technically a collab, no?

Either way -- I'll pay you to be part of the next C11 LE if I have to! Which isn't to say you didn't do a great job with the Siffert - you absolutely did - but I feel like we have to do everything in our power to get TAG to do the right thing
Yes, but sold through TAG Heuer (like the Bamford Monaco). The Autavia LEs and the Skipper style releases are what I meant.

The Swiss wheels move slowly. What I would say, is that any design that is not an existing case/ movement/ combination will be very hard (e.g. a 39mm Calibre 11 Carrera)

Nothing planned at the moment, but there are a couple of ideas. There haven't been any TAG Heuer collabs for some time, so not even sure that they are on the table. Still, all starts with the right idea....

So many good LE's to be conceived from standard configurations. From the current line-up the 39mm Carrera and Monaco would be candidates. I don't see Tag Heuer making a racing heritage inspired Autavia at this point.

I understand that majority of the parts needed for an LE collab should already be part of the main production line of TAG Heuer and with only minimal changes. A truly bespoke LE would probably be difficult to achieve or let alone TH decide to lit the go signal. At most the price would be ridiculously high 馃槻

The Viceroy and Siffert Autavia LEs are truly nice comebacks eventhough it was originally in a C-case design. I don鈥檛 mind a few changes here and there but as long as it captures the true essence and package of the original, it鈥檚 a winner for me 馃榾

It would probably be hard to top what you have done with the Siffert Autavia DC @Calibre11 , but rest assured, we are here to support you and make the community of Calibre 11, helpful, engaging and proactive 馃憤 Cheers! 馃槑

I've got plenty of interesting ideas for our own Heuer-02 powered F1 馃槜

New green nato
21mm 馃槈


I'm gonna say it works - I think green straps seem to work particularly well with white dials 馃憤

I just checked my local watch guy's website and saw this was already "On Hold" meaning sold, damn! Some nice hi-res pics are there for anyone who, like me, only gets to look at the pictures. By the way, US$5,895. https://www.ocwatchguy.com/products/5323
