Maybe it should be on a blue strap, it looks good!
Well, here's the opposite. Carrera Montreal on a black strap. Pic credit to @bamfordwatchdepartment.

That Rake Blue Dreamer - still on my wishlist, but not possible at the premiums being asked unfortunately.

Are you anywhere near Spitalfields in London? If so, you can probably get it.

mine’s all bought and paid for, but just have to wait for it to come in. But thanks. I was just kidding about speeding up delivery

Missing the Carrera Telemeter and the Carrera Silver 160 😲 Those two for me are the classic must haves 😉

But I don’t mind getting the 4 others above 😁

I swapped messages with a UK AD this week who had sold all of their allocation of these watches (~5) and at full RRP. I thought this was interesting, given the discussion here on prices getting high.

Shows that for the right watch (which this is), then the market is willing to pay.

Indeed, it is.

Hurrumph!

My local TAG Heuer Boutique told me they were having a hard time getting an allocation for the Carrera Silver 160. DC is correct, usually the ADs get around 5 pcs just like my JH80 Carrera which was bought locally. I told them, if ever they get just ONE, it will already be RESERVED to a certain someone 😗

They are certainly selling. There's no doubt about that. I’m not surprised as they are lovely pieces.

Thought I'd have a go at mocking up the next two versions of this watch I think should be made. I then discovered I wasn't as good at Photoshop as I thought I was, but nonetheless have come up with something. Obviously the lume colour isn't quite right on either but you get the general idea.

That's all you guys really want isn't it, Pandas.😜
We want the finest pandas available to humanity and we want them here, and we want them now! Not unreasonable really.

I’d be happy if the other two Carrera LE’s of the year would be pandas 🥰🥰 I’m not sure if they will have Heuer Heritage or contemporary TAG Heuer themes

But I’d probably still hold on to my Carrera Telemeter 😉

I think you're pretty good! These look great.

This is my photoshop of the panda edition that I would bet will be part of the 60th Anniversary of the Carrera collection.

Here's another photoshop I made to show how the pandas could look like.

Added watermarks to emphasize these are just imaginary creations.

You kept the glassbox?! Shocking, just shocking. 😜

Sadly, I was realistic that this would probably carry over 🤦.

Very similar to a Carrera rendition comeback of the CH80 😉😉

Yes, although the CH80 were 41mm and NO-glassbox. I still think TH should strongly consider issuing something like those in future years.

I’m very into it. Hope this happens.
