    A welcomed addition to the Monaco family. I was never a fan of the Monaco LS, but this one, IMHO, is a far better modern reinterpretation of the classic Monaco shape. Very tempted to get one, but would like to see it in person first.

    I appreciate there are no engraving on the case; more subtle and elegant.

    Do you know what the band is called by any chance? I wouldn't mind getting one for myself.

    y'know, I quite like this.
    It achieves a modern Monaco look to it that the Heuer 01 Carrera doesn't.

    I don't like the prominent slotted bases that house the chrono pushers. These are a vestige from the Monaco LS. TH could have removed this. Not a deal breaker; it would just be "cleaner" without them.
