30th Birthday Watch from my Fiancée :-D
Discussion
I'm 30 today and my beautiful fiancée has treated me to a watch that has essentially been my grail watch since 2009 when I first saw one. Whilst not to everyones taste, to me they are a complete work of art.
Oh hello :-D
and the bit that always gets me excited and never fails to get a smile out of me!
Really fancy a El Primero Chronomaster 1969 to keep it company now.

awesome watch imo, and very expensive/rare
happy birthday.
how many gulf 24 were made ?
I keep thinking buy it now on this gulf. but 3.5k is hard to swallow on a Monaco when I paid 1.2k for my black one.
I do fancy a Gulf of some sort though

Wow! Happy Birthday OP! What a top present!
I do love the Monaco, especially in Gulf colours, but I just can't find it in me to spend £3.5k on one.
don't ask what a 24 Gulf one costs then as it's double the one I was looking at at 3.5k :-) as we said, nice present :-)I do love the Monaco, especially in Gulf colours, but I just can't find it in me to spend £3.5k on one.

I really like that, sort of suspended movement, looks a fine watch. A small irk for me would be the 4 screwheads on the face, don't like to see screwheads, and especially ones that are not lined up, maybe that just my OCD...looks stunning from the back, really liking the colour scheme too, lovely

Happy birthday. Id have chosen the El Prim over that every time, and I don't have an issue with TAG Heuer per se. I have to admit that I don't have a deal of time for the company that LVHM have turned it into though.Oh hello :-D

My choice would have been either a Heuer marked reissue or an original Heuer Monaco.

Nothing wrong with Tag Heuers. Not the last word in watchmaking, but they do some pretty designs and do what's needed of them. What a lovely present; very thoughtful.Oh hello :-D
