    Hi, I have the number 35/50. I changed the bracelet for a metallic one.
    This watch was only sold in the Monaco Boutique.

    Hi Corentin147, welcome to the forum and congratulations on your super limited Monaco. Thanks for sharing your pictures, now we can finally see what was going on here! I don't suppose you happened to take any photos while it was still on the strap? I'm pleased it's gold since I thought the dials were kind of smokey tobacco coloured, which would have been horrible.

    Congrats on the purchase. Extremely lazy of the boutique to come up with such a sad watch for 11k€. Considering the racing blue 218C is 9300€, the only justification for the price here is the 50 piece LE. The 20k€ steel Riviera had a H02 movement and an elaborate box with a watch winder, and that also was unfathomable, this is just another level greed. The only common factor with the two is that they were both Monaco boutique exclusives - possibly indicating that the folks being targetting for these watches are just about money.

    you’re right. The case is in grade 5, with both finishes, it’s why it’s look like steel but it isn’t.
    Sales are open to anyone who want the watch. It looks like they still have a few pieces available.

    Congratulations, @Corentin147. That is a unicorn. Would love to see some pictures with the straps, too.

    Thanks for your warm welcome !
    Here are some pictures of the straps and the box.
    It's true that there is no big difference with others.
    I am leaving at the border of Monaco so it made sens for me to purchase especially this limited edition.
    If the price is overrated ? Maybe maybe not.
    We are talking about passion, so... doesn't matter.
    Kind regards

    Thanks for the extra pics, can you confirm the watch is actually titanium as the part number suggests? Thanks in advance.

    Someone just showed off a C11 Monaco China LE on FB. Based on the photos, its a One of 23 release. On the face, it looks like a CAW211C but could be titanium case, same as what we saw on the Monaco boutique edition

    Confused… So what differentiates it from the normal CAW211C? :thumbsdown:

    Interesting, thanks for sharing. :thumbsup:
    The strap is also different, it would go nicely with my Monaco Gulf Gray. Also the caseback crystal says Limited Edition and has that orange circle.

    But not much else. TAG seems to be running out of ideas. The C12 Final Edition looked very much like the CAW211B, the Monaco Boutique Edition is very similar to the 211P and now this one.

    TAG has done the same in the past when they released an Italy Limited Edition Monaco Python. The only difference between the regular and the LE was the inscription on the caseback. They were even lazy to change the reference no. (Both were CW2114).
