Absolutely. It's funny how the hype machine is working this year, it's almost like 'create a buzz' make it limited, create 'fomo', release and sell them before the buzz dies off and people have a chance to think!

I think TH should have spaced the releases of all these LEs/SEs throughout the year.. 🙄 unless there are still more to come 😲

I think the rankings will change quite a bit by the end of the year. My enthusiasm for some watches has been waning, while others have been growing on me.

When thinking about a certain watch, I’ve learned that the best way is to “give it time” 😉 (pun included 👍)

Yes true, perhaps the upcoming "Dark Lord" will score higher. Or maybe that one will be released in 2022, cant remember now.

To be honest, I’m not entirely sold to the design of the “Dark Lord” 🤔 Yes it has heritage, history and vintage collectors buzz. Everytime I read the word “Dark Lord”, in my mind, it immediately makes a picture of Darth Vader or some Harry Potter thing 😲

Sorry, too much binge movies for me 😁😜

The original Dark Lord is a very compelling and iconic watch. I'm not sure a re-edition would live up to that.
This fan creation gives a good idea of what to expect and I'm not convinced.

It's nice, but it's not this:

I hear some enthusiasts call it The Dark Clown. Will be interesting to see what the people score it once it gets released.

If rumours are true etc

I remember that, it was a really cool project. Followed it closely, from Ganzman's conceptual discussions, to the step by step making of his one off tribute, and seeing the finished result. But the jury is out on whether I'd buy one if TH makes a production version.

I wish TAG Heuer becomes the OFFICIAL TIMEKEEPER of the 24 Hour of Le Mans ::rimshot::

So much story tied into TAG Heuer with Le Mans, also with Porsche. In that way, TAG Heuer now holds the OFFICIAL TIME for the TRIPLE CROWN of MOTORSPORTS! 📖

Monaco Grand Prix, Indianapolis 500 & 24H Le Mans ::psy::::psy::::psy::
