Tag Monaco alternatives

[anonymous-user]

I really love the Tag Monaco and one day I will have one! However at the moment I can’t afford one so I am looking for a cheaper (much cheaper) alternative. I don’t necessary want it to look exactly the same, or be a copy (defiantly no fakes) but I certainly like the square compact design.

Anybody have any good recommendations? Virtual pint for the cheapest!

Tissot Quadrato - about £250

Oh dear, that's looking a lot like a hole in my wallet! Black non-chrono face with a rubber strap please!

OP, what's your budget?

Also, the Tissot Chrono Automatic pictured above is £995 - I know the others in the range are cheaper though It's just I got a bit excited when I saw 'chrono', 'automatic' and '£250'!

Hmm, on further checking, the one I like is 39mm which is a bit small for me.

What level of TAG Monaco are you looking at? Have you considered second hand? Chrono 24 currently has one just over £1000.....

Im looking at maybe a few hundred quid at the moment, though it does depent how much I like it! Im thinking of staring a bit of a collection so the cheaper they are the more I can buy

My collection has started with this! £60

Not sure about the brand, but it's a nice looking watch.

They do come up bigger than the specs suggest. I think its due to the height and the strap widths. I've wanted one for ages but they just don't look right on my wrist.
