Obviously existing models with new blue rubber straps, but pretty cool for the money I think.

Did spot these the other day & went looking for a thread. Then realised they were quartz & I completely forgot.

Pure elitism.

I don't understand releases like this. This doesn't move the needle for anyone. It's like a watch design by google image searching clipart. If its going to be an exclusive make it something interesting like the WOS Panda Carrera or the WOS Cartier Tank LE. Why even bother? Who is this for? or is it so avante garde that I'm missing it completely

Sigh... makes me do the Picard facepalm when I see this. That strap could have been released YEARS ago with those F1 chronos and date models. I doubt my store will even get them, so I'll be stuck ordering JUST that strap for the new few months

It's not for people like 'us'. Clearly. It's for entry level buyers who might think a blue rubber strap is cool. I like them and if I thought I could get a genuine WAZ1010 cheaply I'd buy one and order the strap.

That's precisely who this is aimed at. Majority of new Tag buyers in my market here are younger guys who are getting into F1 as a whole.

This is a good exercise for those who can identify the differences by memory. I had to look up the general production model.

My price was to find the lovely NATO strap that comes with the production model (FC8196), so I've ordered one to use with other watches.
