I looked it up earlier. Decided it wouldn't be as good as the Bergeon I already had. The plastic handled ones aren't usually known for being quality items. Let me know what they're like.
It's not plastic but metal and the grip is quite nice due to the hexagon shape of the tool.

Wait a minute, the springbar tool is $20 USD, compared to 10 GBP or 10 Euros. Not fair! 😡

I'm trying to overcome the FOMO! And winning at the moment. I have 2 decent springbar tools already. It helps that the balance of my current account is only £1.74 (until pay day tomorrow!). That's what happens I guess after you go panda shopping.

Sadly not. Bought on credit card. And paid off involving a savings account transfer.

That's ok. Already have one that came with my Monaco 40th Anniversary Strap LE.

It could have been worse, pay day at my work is 24th of the month.

😜

Ordered one too. Unfortunately delivered by UPS in my neck of the woods…

Would have been even better if the other end (opposite the fork) was a “poker”, but hey… 😁

I particularly like that it comes with Automatic Warranty Activation.

We should start a list!
Add me to your list, pending delivery.

Worth a tenner just to see the missus’ face as a TAG Heuer parcel is delivered. 😀

Don’t worry, you can pay with Klarna, I kid you not. 😀

What is this?
In 2009, not only did TAG release the 40th Anniversary Monaco, they also released a set of special limited edition Monaco 40th Anniversary straps. They could be purchased individually or as a set. I bought the black croc & orange stitch for my Monaco Gulf.


This site has the set, selling for $2,495 (USD):https://www.authenticwatches.com/tag-heuer-monaco-strap-kit-eb0030.html

Do they though? It says it ships in 6 months. I haven't personal experience, but I seem to recall reading from others that Authentic watches are known for being expensive, not having stock and sometimes struggling to obtain it after purchase, and then making refunds difficult.

You're probably right.
But these straps have long been out of production, so if they don't have them in stock, I don't know how they would get them. Maybe it's an old listing that they forgot to take down or update.

Pretty sure they list stuff they won't be able to get.
