    I've just noticed that when you try and access the Catalogues on Calibre 11 it now takes you to On the Dash, which has a few (mostly older) catalogues, kinda makes me glad I spent all those hours and hours downloading every page of every catalogue while they were still available!

    I ran into that yesterday. Also, it's not just the catalogues, there are other articles that are being re-linked.
    Here's one example: https://www.calibre11.com/ultimate-guide-to-the-vintage-heuer-monaco/
    There are other articles that simply go to the TAG Heuer homepage, not even a specific equivalent page on the topic. E.g.
    https://www.calibre11.com/tag-heuer-1000/
    https://www.calibre11.com/ultimate-guide-tag-heuer-sel/

    It seems DC is in process of transitioning calibre11.com to other sources. Eventually, I expect everything will be re-linked and calibre11.com will be closed for good.

    I hope most of the information can be migrated, but it seems like there's valuable information that's falling into the cracks or lost completely! :(

    I found out about that yesterday too.
    Does anyone have the link or file for the 2015/2016 catalogue PLEASE?

    Now calibre11.com just says it's under construction.

    I hope all the years of invaluable info that DC developed and stored are preserved in its entirety somewhere.

    You will publish all catalogues on the blog right? Like I've said before, THEB will be the only go to place for all things TAG Heuer going forward

    I know, right!? Hoping it's just a temporary glitch. DC's articles contain a wealth of information, it'll be tragic if it's all not preserved in some way.

    Even the TAG Heuer page on the "Vintage Heuer Monaco" is quite different compared to what I recall was in DC's original article - https://www.calibre11.com/ultimate-guide-to-the-vintage-heuer-monaco/
    If this is how DC's material is going to be treated, it's really a shame.

    Kind of felt this would be the way things were heading when we got the news DC was quitting the watch game. I think TAG will just nit pick the parts they consider to have commersial value and make sense in relation to the current offerings.

    Yes it would be nice if Rob puts the ones he copied onto his blog site. :thumbsup:

    But I also wonder why On The Dash doesn't have them since calibre11.com linked the catalogues to OTD's catalogues section, unless it's a temporary thing too. OTOH, I would think TAG Heuer technically owns all these catalogues, so perhaps all the old catalogues will eventually show up on the TH website in some kind of historical section.

    Massive undertaking that.... no time for it at the moment, but rest assured I have everything. I think I even downloaded all the Heuer catalogues too...

    I'm impressed, I thought nothing prior to 1985 mattered to you. Well done!

    Don't get why they link to OTD.
    He's not a fan of THF.
    Maybe it has something to do with an agreement reached by DC in regards to content with Tag Heuer?

    Hello folks.

    Quick related question...
    Do you know in which catalogue the first TH Connected (2015) appears?
    I can't find it in the 2014/2015 and I don't have the 2015/2016 to verify it...

    Thanks!

    Okay, it is in the 2016-17 cat which makes sense cos wasn't it announced in 2016.
