Don't know how many watch or follow IDGuy on YouTube. He has an interesting take on watches from his industrial design background and also does some live videos with live chat once in a while, I shared a few of my favorite shots and was suprised to see mine featured on his IG post and live stream.

There was only one other Tag Heuer, a Gulf Monaco, that was sent in. if you are into it, it would be great to see more featured as everyone here has some great watches to share with the watch community. He does these every three or four weeks. My wife even found it enjoyable...for a bit.馃憤

Have not seen his videos before, he said your photo was one of the best on that show 馃憤 well done!

His live streams seem to be 3-4h long 馃槻 not sure I would watch for that long

I usually just watch and listen live for a bit. I will skim through after and when I find something interesting stop and listen

Just got mine yesterday. Absolutely in love with it. Any idea were to get a black/black rally strap that will work with the Heuer deployant?

Heuer deployant
Speaking of the FC5042, does your clasp also pop open on one side with a little force, making it feel not super secure to wear?

Yes, it actually pops open completely unless I press it really hard and even then you can hear a slight pop on one side but it doesn鈥檛 completely open just on one side.

Congrats. For a black rally strap, either go original Heuer from a boutique (about 拢85), or 19mm strap from Watchstrap world, or custom from somewhere like GLC straps. I would get a new deployant, though - FC5049 is much better and takes a slightly thicker strap.

Definitely prefer original, is there a part number or which watch did it come with?

Have covered this in multiple threads recently - you want FC5049 clasp with FC6353 strap - this is setup from the Cal 18 Telemeter (or FC6350 if you prefer a blue stitch akin to what came with the Hodinkee Skipper). The FC5049 clasp takes a 3mm thick strap whereas the FC5042 which came with the 160th only accomodates 2mm straps - it can take the thicker rally strap at a push, but it's not as well made anyway, so if you can afford it, get the proper clasp. Approx. 拢200 for strap and clasp from a Tag boutique.

Would be interesting to hear someone working at TAG who can explain to us why this lousy clasp is sold at all...
