Have Tag agreed terms for the automatic watch?
I was going to buy one but they wouldnt commit to a design of watch for the auto one in two years (i have seen the one being touted as the watch, but i have also been told that the watch hasnt been signed off yet) and the paperwork also stated a "likely cost" to change of £1100.
Really wanted one but a big part for me was also the fact i would get the ltd edition auto watch in 2 years time and i couldnt get them to commit to a design or price.

and what do you think you're going to get from other manufacturers?I was going to buy one but they wouldnt commit to a design of watch for the auto one in two years (i have seen the one being touted as the watch, but i have also been told that the watch hasnt been signed off yet) and the paperwork also stated a "likely cost" to change of £1100.

Have put my name down with Watches of Switzerland for a GMT Master-II with (blue/black bezel), which was the first watch I ever lusted after. Now, 20yrs later I might actually get one!
Is that the platinum one? I am hoping that one day in the future they may release it in steel with that bezel!Jimmy Recard said:

Steel with blue/black bezel, I believe. It has been out for a year or moreBlown2CV said:

They have mentioned a price of £1100 to part exchange plus the connected watch and they have shown an automatic watch at the side of the connected watch so the assumption is that it will be £1100 plus the connected watch and you will get the automatic watch shown in the pictures.
This does not however appear to be the case, the paperwork that i was asked to sign for purchase stated the price "should" be £1100, this obviously gives them scope to charge a different figure. And the paperwork also stated that the design of the automatic watch had not yet been finalised but that it would be a ltd wdition watch.
Therefore i was being asked to enter a contract with no knowledge of how much the second watch would cost or even if i would like the watch.
To me it didn't seem right having that many unknowns whenagain for me, one of the big draws of this versus the apple watch is that when it becomes obsolete i have an exit strategy.

Just did a bit of research, it's certainly been out for more than a year. I've no idea why, but I was convinced it was only available in white gold. I was holding on for a Daytona later in the year, this changes things.
You are thinking of the blue and red dial! They released that in the GMT-IIC and it is white gold only.sealtt said:
