    Don't you wish TAG Heuer actually made a watch with an Eiffel Tower on the dial?

    Um, honestly?

    Side profile looks like they've reused the die for a Daytona

    This fake of the Red 80's Monaco 50 is a decent replica and could probably fool some people. But the strap and especially the circle on the case (where a right side crown would be) are telltale signs that give it away easily.

    Tag Heuer signed deployant clasp as well. Aren't the originals Heuer signed?

    Yes. Fascinating that they can produce such "good" copies but are so stupid to miss details like the clasp

    Probably just re-purposed an existing Tag Heuer Monaco and put in a red dial.

    Scary! This is replica is defeated, by the wrong clasp, its recessed crown on the right, and probably a "mockup" crown on the left hand side. ::facepalm2:: upload_2019-12-6_7-54-28.png

    You're right. At first glance I thought it was just a cap to fill a hole. But it probably is the real crown, since it's harder to produce a fake C11 movement with a left-side crown.

    They wasted no time getting that Monaco to market did they! What a horrid looking thing with it’s two crowns though.
