Yes, very much like this silver dial version of the Monaco. Congratulations.

I seem to have collected a few aftermarket Monaco straps so I thought I'd have a little play around and this Monaco lends itself quite nicely to a little watch strap changing. I think the orange croc effect works rather nicely and would make a nice summer watch combination. Even the others with the orange stitching work well with the orange highlights on the hands and dial.
Thoughts good or bad appreciated!
My vote is for this combo 😀


And congrats for the new addition to your Monaco collection! 👍

The 'madness' continues.

Enter what my friend, perhaps appropriately, describes as the 'elegant Monaco' I find myself agreeing somewhat and it's not that I would suggest Monaco's have no elegance. Sporty yes, but inelegant no.

I spotted a CAW211C for sale at an online dealers site. Full set inc original purchase receipt and a documented TAG Heuer service in mid 2019. Described as mint (an over used hateful expression in the used watch world) It wasn't with some very minor signs of wear, but not enough to upset me and want to send it back.

Very different to all my other Monaco's and the brushed silver dial does lend itself to wear in more formal situations maybe...but I'm one to wear what I want wherever I want within reason.



I've tried to (poorly) catch the way the dial can seem a brilliant silver to a more subdued light grey depending on the light.

Congrats! The CAW211C can give the Titan Monaco a run for its money! 👍
I especially like the look on the orange stitched black straps, both the croc & rally.

At first glance it looks very much like the Titan...I'll call mine the the thinking (and poor) man's Titan.
No offence meant to owners of the Titan of course 😀

I agree with Albert.
