We forgive you Otto.
I do not, but I might shortly. It's a process.
I've been scanning possible reference numbers online but no hits so far. TAG Heuer upping their game 😉
If this turns out to be a panda and a 250 units LE I just hope I don't miss it. Does TAG Heuer have a webshop anywhere? It's not available in Belgium in any case. Dealer network? Fat chance

Ok so I just learned the TAG Heuer webshop isn't available here so I'm pretty much screwed.
Anyone on the forum from France, Spain, Germany or Italy? Those appear to be the only countries in Europe (excl Brexit UK) where the webshop ships to...

It is. They tried to declare independence in 2017 after an unofficial referendum but had to backtrack on that pretty quickly after nobody (international partners and the Spanish government) recognised the result.

Yes, the Spanish government sent the Spanish police to beat up the Catalans who were going to cast their vote in a ballot box. More than two million Catalans voted Yes to independence, but the Catalan government, seeing the antidemocratic and violent attitude of the Spanish government, decided to put the declaration of independence on hold to avoid a bloodbath, and wait for a more favorable moment (a more democratic and less violent Spanish government) to continue with the process.
Since 2017 the legitimate President of Catalonia (Carles Puigdemont) has been in exile in Brussels along with other members of his government, and those who did not go into exile have been in prison since then... just for putting ballot boxes! All very democratic: in the XXI century, a European state like Spain that is supposed to be democratic (but still has too many links with the 40 years of Franco's dictatorship) has political prisoners, and Europe allows it... What a shame!
Since then, in all the elections that have been held in Catalonia, the pro-independence parties have won. Sooner or later they will have to let us hold an agreed referendum, like it was done in Scotland, and as on October 1st 2017, the Yes to Catalonia being a new state -in the form of a republic- in Europe will win again... independent as before 1714, when Spain conquered Catalonia by force after a long and bloody war. The idea is that the independence of Catalonia, more than 300 years after losing it, can be achieved peacefully and democratically, simply by voting

I'm sorry for the political interruption, and we'd better keep talking about watches, but even though we are still forcibly held in Spain, the majority of Catalans feel part of a different country. That is why I always say that I am Catalan, not Spanish... it is only a matter of time before it becomes official and not only moral

Well Dali Museum still like 2 hours drive from Barcelona 😁 <---smartass here :whipped:
😁 Yes, Catalonia is divided in four provinces: Barcelona, Tarragona, Lleida, and Girona. The Dalí Museum is in Figueres (Girona) because he was born there, and Girona is frontier with France, and it’s also very popular by its “Costa Brava” beaches 😎

Without adding any political view or anything just want to say Barcelona was one of the best place I've ever visited in my life !

😀 Thanks Otto! Glad you liked it! 👍

We need The Carrera.

I think tag is underutilized that “affordable” tourbillon.
That tourbi needs to be in a Heuer 39mm case, and not the skeletonized, gorilla sized mess they also called Carrera.
While at it, bring that tourbi into The Monaco.
$15k a piece.
But if they really want to drive home the affordability point, make it $9k.

can I get an “Amen”?

I love Catalunya, we've rented vacation houses there many times and will do so again in the future. Barcelona is of course great but I like Figueres a lot as well. The small old towns in the region are great as well.
