Last day with the Monaco before putting up for sale to offset a new watch purchase 馃檨

Sell the Fezzer, then you could keep the Monaco and buy a whole bunch of new watches.

Today wearing this Certina DS Podium Limited Edition Pedro de la Rosa (327 of 710 pcs), with colours inspired in his helmet

Pedro de la Rosa (former McLaren-Mercedes F1 driver) is a personal friend and my favourite local racing driver (he is also from Barcelona), so when Certina launched this Limited Edition during his Sauber F1 period, I had to buy it! 馃槈

馃榾 Thanks! In fact my own racing helmet (in the picture, signed by Pedro de la Rosa) is a replica of Pedro鈥檚 helmet from 2006 (when he was 2nd in the Hungarian F1 GP driving the McLaren-Mercedes)

Yep Japan Zac, but not here to get a green Monaco Tony.
Finally- on the wrist and worth every minute of the journey. Thanks to the Tag Heuer staff in Ginza who held this watch for me to travel the 8500 to pick it up.
They were kind enough to throw a leather jacket in as a gift. The colour of the watch is an enigma. It has to move to be appreciated as it Picks up the light and changes depending on its angle. Not easy to capture in a photo but I did my best. I鈥檒l try and upload a vid somewhere when I get a chance. Right now, it鈥檚 sushi, sumo and Sake time!!
Congrats on the Red Monaco 50! What a beauty!

Funny, I was in Tokyo just two weeks ago on business. I was thinking of stopping by the TH Ginza Boutique, but decided to use what little free time I had on my other passion, and visited the Toyota City Showcase in Odaiba. Because I wanted to see the new Toyota Supra. The Supra looked great in the metal! As a bonus, the Megaweb auto museum next door in VenusFort had a display of Japanese Le Mans race cars like the Mazda 787B ('91 winner) and Toyota TS050 (winner the last 2 years). But who knows, if I had gone to the TH Boutique I might have been sorely tempted to by the '80s Monaco 50.

Very nice photos. I have been out to that Toyota showcase quite a few years ago. Was well worth a. Is it.
I did take a photo of the two cars on display at the Nissan crossing in Ginza.
One very mean GTR and a very low electric formula E car. Sorry about the bad composition of the GTR photos.

That GT-R has been there for a while. It's a concept car for the next GT-R.

Yeah it used to be upstairs but first time to see it out front.
In April this was the GTR on show.

May have to start calling you Mr Bond with all this worldly travel.
Out of the 3, I'd take the Autavia everyday but I am a Heuerholic.
Looking to travel to Dubai in the next 12 months myself. Not sure when yet but am looking forward to it.
Safe travels.

Got an urge for one of these although not the skeleton version, and prefer the grey finish, may have to get another job or have a special birthday come quicker than the calendar permits.
