TAG F1

[Mr lestat]

Bought this today as an everyday watch to keep its stablemate company. The Monaco is for weekends and best

Nice. I've had a black F1 as a daily for about 7 years now. One battery change in that time.

Not sure why the pic is 90 deg out though.

Enjoy! We await the TAG Heuer snobs! They will regale us about paying 50% over retail for some basic Rolex and told you that you should have bought one of them instead.

Haters always going to hate. Personally I wanted a daily to compliment the Monaco I have. This is perfect.

Nice. Was looking at that one last year but when I went to buy it the red bull edition one had just been released which has the red bull purply blue face and I ended up with that one instead but still like the one you have.
Tags get a slating but I think if you like them then why not. Doesn’t matter what others think and I’m not arsed how much value it holds as long as I like it.
Your Monaco looks good too btw!

Very nice - what did they set you back?

[Mr lestat]

I got the Monaco about 4 years ago and it was £4500 ish. I sold my mums old jewellery after she died that would have sat in a drawer till I died and transferred the value into something I wear regularly and enjoy. The F1 was £1050 as I got some discount

Really like both those watches and I think it’s great that you’ve got one for daily duties and something a little different for best!

That’s a great idea - I’ve old gold rings from Grandad etc. It’s been locked away for near on 30 years & ive looked at it a handful of times.

I did um and ah about it but her old jewellery would honestly have never seen light of day. With this I have something tangible that I use.

I have the very same model F1 and really like it. I think the colour is fantastic, particularly in the sun.

That Monaco is quite special!.

Thanks, it’s something I’ve always wanted.
