I've collected a few photos of Limited Edition TAGs over the years- here are a few that you might not have seen. The first one is probably my favourite...and don't know a lot about it...maybe someone else does?

Aquaracer 500m Titanium


Carrera Calibre 5 Hong Kong Edition



Aquaracer 300m Caribbean Edition


Link Lucerne Edition


Formula 1 Brasil Edition


Carrera "Jeff Gordon" Edition



Carrera Swiss 150th Edition


The top one is apparently a WAK2181, and is for sale on eBay.

Has this been featured before? It is quite nice.
@Mr_Orange would probably like it.

TAG HEUER CARRERA CAR2A81.FC6268


It is quite nice, but I prefer the McLaren 1974 Edition that I have. The silver opaline dial and black registers work really well.

Ah OK. I didn't spot that. How stupid! I think 8 is lucky in the Chinese culture... not sure what it has to do with Switzerland though.

Yes, @elbeik's post preceding my question, since I wonder about the significance of the number 8 that prompted them to make it stand-out on this "Exclusive Swiss" model.

Have you noticed how every official shot of a TAG the date is set to 8? I only noticed when I was doing my Gallery blog...

Yes, I asked them a while ago why that was...as you say, every single date is set to 8 in official shots and that's been the case for many years. No-one really knew- but they thought it was simply because there was a nice symmetrical look to the "8"...it's not a nod to the Chinese market.
