Well I've done it... and the conclusion I came to was basically why would anyone buy this for £21k when you could buy the blue dial titanium Carrera on a titanium bracelet for £19k.

 

Thats just not true

 

Explain.

 

There is no blue dial Mario collab Carrera tourbillion available for 19k

 

Ah, sorry yes.. I was using forum logic where someone says they want something 'off trend' and someone suggests something else entirely unlike it on the grounds that it is 'better' despite it being nothing like the original desire. You know, like when people say they want a solid gold Link with a rainbow bezel and people say, no you don't you'd be much better off with a BB58.

 

Aaaah, forum logic, now I get it carry on then.

 

Start your engines ... Let th flipping start!!!!!

 

Haha are they not making 3000 pieces of that one? Can anyone remember the last time TAG sold out a limited edition made in such huge numbers?

 

I've seen an ebay listing for 12k and 9k also!!! I'm now just wanting to buy one to flip it

 

Go for it

 

Hilarious. But does the target market know they won't sell out?

 

Yes, the 2000 pieces Mario x Connected. It sold out fairly quickly, although not 3000 pieces and not as expensive.

 

I thought we decided that was bought by flippers?

Then again, so is this one by the looks of it...

 

I guess TAG has to find the level where there's enough to satisfy the flippers, but not too many that the flippers can't soak them up, otherwise the whole system falls on it's face and stock is left in the shops...

Oh and by the way, where the hell is the Solargraph? Wasn't it supposed to be here in September?

 

Showing Out of Stock on the UK website, as usual... every new watch seems to say that these days. Probably helping those flippers flip

 

I have asked a few AD’s online, as they have them listed and able to order, but nothing more. TAG originally just stated October as release date.

The response was the same from them all. Some were already available but no further stock until February/March in the UK.

Not seen any posts from anyone actually getting one and nothing recent on YouTube either. Must be yet another stock issue on electrical components?

 

Thanks, I was told it was actually a limited edition, which I don't think was made clear on release

 

I didn’t get the impression that the Solargraph was a LE. I was looking forward to seeing it in store as pretty much fits my requirements.

 

Me neither. I was told by a TAG Boutique, they said they were only getting one

 

I won’t hold my breath then.
