Quite a nice car-themed watch for what, 600 quid?

I'd rather have than that than a quartz TAG F1.

I bought one off the website without actually seeing one in the flesh.

I was disappointed, it has never been out of the box.

I have a Monaco and a JLC, the Monoposto just does not have the presence or quality to get a look in against the other two.

Doesn't look too bad in the photos. I could think of alot of other pieces I'd spend the money on before this though.

These are now out of stock. Bugger, I was failing to save up for one.

In fairness to them, you're comparing a £600 watch with £3000 watches. That said, that red bar would irritate the hell out of me as it serves no purpose nor satisfies my OCDness.

I quite like the look of the Prototipo. http://www.pageandcooper.com/autodromo-prototipo-c...

It's lovely, can't decide between that (probably the Vic Elford special Edition one) and the white faced Vallelunga

The Monoposto was a mechanical movement though, and I loved the painted red stripe, but then I love old racing cars.

The monoposto has grown on me, but it has still never been on my wrist. I have decided to put it away in the giddy expectation that I might make a little profit one day.

bit pricey for a non waterproof case and a Myota.

Otherwise looks ok

and you are very unlikely to ever see another one - if thats your bag

How much would you sell it for today?

[AlvinSultana]

I am not sure that I would sell it today. I have never thought about selling it now.
