路路TAG Heuer Forums ModeratorI was doing this comparison at the weekend, can't quite decide if sticking with the McQueen was right but I suspect there will be something special next year in the Monaco range? that might just be worth waiting for.

TAG as in TAG
路Been away from my desk, I need to catch up on all the posts and pics, here is a pic of my TAG grouping. The top left was my disco watch, LOL. Now my wife will wear it on the boat (it's a 200 meter watch after all) and will get compliments on her "new" watch.

路It's a combination of things. Here's an old post, where I explained some of them.
Unfortunately the Calibre18 subdial placement will never make it possible to achieve those perfect 60s proportions with two subdials as these are simply too close together. This is very obvious with the The Rake LE, even though it has smaller subdials than the standard Calibre18. When compared to the 7753 it just looks off. The light blue dial also makes the hour markers stand out way too much, causing a lot of clutter. The dark blue dial of the Hodinkee camouflages this to an extent although I still think the standard Calibre18 hour markers would have been a better choice as they're much better proportioned.
The Hodinkee LE looks so stellar because it only has one subdial. It's basically a mirrored 3147 dato with the Skipper spice, genius. In that respect an Hodinkee style Carrera with black dial and a single white subdial would look fantastic I reckon.

路Pretty nice. Don't understand why Tag didn't make more models with this case size.

路Must have sold really bad dont you think? Besides from a few fanatics, who bought them? Was it not discussed that the Hodinkee Skipper was made from old cases in stock, probably cause Tag could not get them sold?

My preference would be 41mm.

路I could never really put my finger on it, but I just don't like the Calibre 18 Telemeter. I don't think it is the size so suspect it is something to do with the case and crystal.
