That really is all shades of cool, both watch and accompaniments.

I hate Yago for how he constantly unearthes desirable neo-vintage (but love that weird little Monaco) 😁

The Cartier is a brand and model I really want to like, the large wears very big, the medium suited to average wrists.

Just something not quite there IMHO, and I can never put a finger on what.

went to see my mum at work today and yeh shop a first the road had 3 40mm Cartier Santos in !!

im definitely happy with the large size after trying it on as it felt smaller on my wrist as to wrapped it if that makes sense.

they had the white, black and blue dial. Seeing them has only made it harder to choose ! I like the white but the blue was very nice too and the hands were lumed which was a big plus.

the white dial like very classic and I like that. They were strong money for what was essentially a second half watch and I’d want more than £500 off retail to tempt me as they had plenty of wear makers on the face which I think would bug me, albeit they were minor and should polish out

Arrived from distant lands.

Congrats Yago! I'm impressed by the condition of the case, most from that era have self destructed badly by now. Very cool Monaco too! 👍

I know it’s not necessarily a forum favourite given some of the comparisons to historical models, but I really quite like this. Previously, I thought I’d prefer an earlier model but having tried on again today, my mind may have been changed. It’s really very nice IMO.

I enjoyed the green Monaco (lack of green aside) and I like that this gives it a bit more visual punch that (I think) a Monaco should have. I tried along with the standard blue and I thought this was the nicer of the 2. I’m defo going to pick up a Monaco again, and this might just be it.

It's a favorite of mine. Can't go wrong with the GPHG winner. 👍

Yeah - I really liked it. The blue is lovely and deep.
Also on my wishlist; congrats @stevec14
thanks Hubert - I haven’t bought it yet, but I think I might just do so in between Christmas and new year.

I believe I had teased the (future) existence of a Heuer Bund inspired microbrand chrono in this (?) thread a couple of months ago… Now it’s here and I have to say that the end result is IMHO very nice. Would be interesting to see how much smaller and thinner they can go with a manual-wound Sellita and no display caseback, but it isn’t really a concern to me anymore 😁

Been about a week in the Making but it's here.
027/100 Blue Dreamer.
Missed out years ago on the initial release.
Happy to finally land one.

Congrats, @Anthony.R! Beautiful piece. I noticed one recently sold on C24. You have an awesome glassbox collection!
