Carrera Day Date

 

Soooo, more than 1 year and 550 posts and I have finally bought my first Tag Heuer. I am so happy about my choice was concidering the Autavia and the Monza but realized that this is the one I have been after since my love of Tag started more than 2 years ago (it has been my avatar since joining after all). Obvious what I am wearing later today when parked in the home cinema cheering for Ricciardo!

I love everything about the watch but would like to add some anti reflective coating though. Being used to Breitling this is not really on par with them of course. I am wondering though if the crystal might have coating on the underside because luckily it is not near to as terrible as a Rolex

Some photos!



I could drool over that box all day long as well!

 

Lovely colour combination. Danny Ric for the win today!

 

Congrats. Very sharp and always a fan of a blue dial. Shame what happened to Daniel in the race, but a Red Bull win and the watch will surely console you!

 

Congrats ! Wear it in good health always.

Wrist shot imminent.

 

I wish! Last year has been really rough for me, going through divorce meant draining all my savings, selling the stock portfolio and using all that to "buy" half my house and car. In other words no funds for watches. Ex wife got a lot of money though... Anyhow, fortunate to be able to keep the house and now I am back on track and have saved up some money again about time to treat myself with a christmas present!

 

Thanks Otto, will post some wristshots I promise

 

You are the epitome of #dontcrackunderpressure

 

What a great story! Congrats!

Your purchase must have brought good luck to Max & Red Bull, seeing how they won the Mexico GP just for you!

 

Thank you my friend haha yes that must have been it! Max has been on fire lately though so even though it sucks that Ricciardo had to cancel the race (AGAIN) I was glad for Max! Who knows, next year we might not even call him Crashtappen

 

First photoshoot with my new camera and my Custom Tag 1000 GMT modpack from my website (www.simonwatchcompany.com)! The fall colors look amazing here in Michigan.

 

Oh, I completely missed that you had bought yourself a new watch Jim! Congrats on a great purchase, this is definitely one of the modern classics from TH!
