We see quite a few "interesting" Monaco references this year... Not sure how I feel for this albeit the cream dial was rather cool!

I didn't see the original feature form Time+Tide before it was pulled down, but for those who want one, seems you should keep a close eye on:

Ah, good catch. I was wondering what the "Hour Glass 40" meant. Seems like another one of these website connected specials, like the "Calibre 11" Siffert Autavia and the "Hodinkee" Carrera Skipper.

Eh, I was close a few months back.

That Formula 1 font for "12" is just too much for me. Don't want to offend any modern TH fans but it looks weird to me and reminds me of Tom Brady's jersey.

Black PVD vs. glossy case finish would've been cool. Glossy makes me think of Fossil.

Wow, your photoshop was amazingly close, what a coincidence. Perhaps you've got psychic powers?

The Hour Glass are a chain of luxury watch shops founded in Singapore. They are international and have been around for quite some time and much longer than any of the web based fan sites/blogs.

If that happens we're all going to Switzerland on a C11 pilgrimage. My treat.

Will you add this to your collection @Hubert?
I had it in the shopping cart but decided it’s not for me in the end.
Hope I don’t regret it.

I would have gone for it, not sure of the exchange rate and my likelihood of not getting a do'ing from the wife, not a fan of specials but this may well have worth.

I quite like it...different enough to be worthwhile and always love a Monaco with a blackened case
