I am a newbie to this hobby - I love watches and this looks like a lot of fun.

One of my long-time watch wants has been the Tag Heuer Monaco. I know it's a somewhat controversial choice, but as an amateur racer of a certain age it has always spoken to me. Thanks to the great education I've gotten here, I placed an order with Andrew at Trusty Time.

Everything so far has gone very smoothly. Order placed on Aug 7, credit card payment went through without issue. Received and approved QC photos on Aug 10. Shipping tracker received on Aug 12. I'm currently following the DHL shipment using their online tools, with delivery estimated for next week.

I'm very pleased with the service so far! I'll post a pic when the watch arrives.

Yes, obviously a purposeful choice of the profile pic! My favorite racing movie.

I am very anxious to receive the watch :)

It has arrived! Great service from Andrew, that's only two weeks from order to arrival. Thank you sir!

Here's a pic - not great, the beveled crystal creates a bunch of reflections.

Yes, chrono works! Start/stop on the upper button, reset on the lower.

The large red second hand goes with the stopwatch. Otherwise it sits at 12.

Oh as in the larger red hand movement, does it move like an automatic watch or like a quartz watch?

After wearing the watch constantly for 5 days I am still delighted. It looks great and I am getting a lot of compliments. The perforated band is very soft and comfortable even in this hot weather. Thanks again to TrustyTime!

Not sure I know the difference. It moves in discreet "ticks," I believe 4 per second. It is not a continuous sweep. Hope that helps.
