    As I'm a PCA member, I had an opportunity to buy that one when it was released. But at the time, I thought it was a little too expensive and I was happy with my Monaco Gulf. Now I kind of kick myself for not trying to snag one.

    It would be a perfect watch for you sir! :) For a 10 year old watch (released 2010), I still like the design! Instantly recognizable even from a far! :thumbsup: Plus ultra limited! Fits the bill when driving your Porsche ::love::

    You're right the design has 'aged' well and still looks good.

    This is actually how I hope they do the next Monaco Gulf - with a light Gulf blue dial & orange stripe with black pin stripes. Gulf logo in place of 55, or place Gulf logo on top and have number 20 on bottom.

    A perfect release for 2021, the 50th anniversary of the movie Le Mans.

    No no no, don't encourage Albert. The Monaco must be square! ::rant::rolleyes:
    I'll wait for @Mr_Orange. ;)

    @Albert-AMG knows that he is committing blasphemy - I'll just leave it there ;)!

    :D Then TAG Heuer is also committing blasphemy, because this Monaco wall clock is official ;)

    Inside the square case of the Monaco there’s also a round dial, so -unless someday TH launch a Monaco Connected with square screen- the most legitimate way to wear a connected version of a TH Monaco, is the TH Connected, which only exists with round screen...

    ... or do you prefer an Apple Watch with a Monaco dial, just because it has a square screen? ;)

    Aha! I knew it! Nice render on your TH Connected sir! :thumbsup:
    Look at the subdials, there are also red markings and the color of the subdial hands are different ;)

    Yes! The red marks of the left subdial are missing in the connected version, I must update it! :thumbsup:

    But I think the color of the subdial hands is fine... it just looks different in your picture (probably because of reflections), but it looks like in this other picture :)

    Karun Chandhok looks like he's wearing a TAG. Not sure if it's a H01 Carrera? 20200816_213406.jpg

    If I’m not mistaken, Karun Chandhok (former F1 driver) & Shah Rukh Khan (Bollywood King) were both TAG Heuer Ambassadors before :thumbsup::thumbsup:
