I'm somewhat confused about this, since it is in the 2006 catalogue and price list!
£4,495... what a bargain!

 

I was told, waiting for it from the moment it was announced costing €6k with 360 pieces, 2 years later it didn't get to the market. First thought this to be an excuse, but later read it was true on calibre11.com.

There was intent and a marketing plan but seems they backed out of steel. That made me go for the WG (which my AD could acquire, possible the last one), although being more than double the price after long consideration.

 

I guess back then 6000 euros would have been about £4500 maybe... it's definitely in there, but as you say Calibre11 sez it never happened...

 

The 2006 catalogue also shows the 2000 Exclusive LADIES models as Aquaracers... there are no 2000 Exclusive men's models in the 2006 catalogue.

 

Another 60 watches added to the gallery blog, will be added to the lists soon...

 

Just went through my 1991 catalogue and found another 82 watches....

 

I know, I wasn't expecting that. So many of them look the same as well... how many two tone 1500s and S/ELs did they need for Christ's sake? Doing this has really shown that there's way more two-tone watches out there than I ever imagined...

 

I've been meaning to write a post about my wife's collection for a very long time, I finally got it done!

The Search page is now operational... although there is still a lot of work to do to relabel the old entries, plus I'm still trawling through my catalogues for missing items (but I'm getting there).

Searches available for dial colour, model, finishes and case material:

Hi sir Rob! I was browsing the direct searches. I noticed the JH85 Autavia is missing in the Autavia section and the 300 SLR Calibre 1887 in the SLR section. Just want to help Will try to see what i can add. Great work by the way! And such an awesome TH blogspot site!

 

Hi KappaMD
Yes, this is because those watches haven't had the labels added retrospectively. I have to add the search labels to each watch, which I've been doing as I go along recently... but there are about 1500 watches previously that don't have those labels added yet so you are only seeing part of the search results... thanks though, I do want people to point out errors and missing watches, once I've done all of the labels I will let you all know.

 

Copy that sir! Will still search and give my inputs! Regards and stay safe sir!

 

Hmmm.... so I looked into this and you're right, the JH85 is missing! Thinking about it even the older watches are labeled with the model and number so that doesn't wash! Also the 1887 SLR is labeled as a Carrera... the part number and case suggests that's what it is but I have given it the SLR label as well so it will appear under both searches. Thanks Kappa!

 

Tomorrow I will post a 40 question TAG Heuer quiz! Or later on today if you ask me nicely....

 

Nice way of entertaining everyone at home, will be fun to test my knowledge in our favorite brand

 

I did some F1 quizzes last night and enjoyed it, so hopefully it will kill some time for some people!

 

Got way behind with this, for obvious reasons!
Part three of the quiz will be up on Wednesday morning.

Right, I don't want to say the list is finished, because it will never be finished, but I've gone through all my catalogues and all the TAG Heuer ones I haven't got that are on Calibre 11, so I reckon it's 95% there. Having said that, I'm sure David once told me he had over 4000 references and that was a good few years ago. I have about 3100 so far... but I haven't included Heuer models as yet. Can't work out if I want to or not, I'm kinda sick of this list now.

If I'd known how much work I was taking on I probably wouldn't have started it, and if I did it over, I'd still do the women's watches, but I wouldn't do every strap permutation. Some of the women's especially, have like six different straps! Some of which look exactly the same but they have a different clasp.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh!

I still haven't got round to relabeling the older entries, so that's my next job - in the meantime the 'Searches' on my blog will only produce part results. When it's finished it's going to be very helpful to me at least for when I want to do a post on say 'My Top 5 Blue Dials' or something like that...
