Hi and a question

I've just joined the group and looking forward to learning more about replicas on here. I have just got back from Turkey and picked up a nice ( to me anyway !) Tag Carrera 16 I also picked up a Tag Monaco which was a lot cheaper but I just liked the look and feel of it. The Monaco is square and blue faced BUT has a cut-away in the face showing the movement. When I was in the shop I used my phone to check the Tag website and couldn't see anything lie it but as I said, I just liked the watch so I bought it. Has anyone ever seen a model like this ?

Thanks

No, it's a cheapie fantasy watch. There's no gen equivalent That's supposed to look like a tourbillon but... er.... doesn't.

Thanks guys, I pretty much knew it wasn't a gen copy when I bought it and Sumikito I think you are right about being the only one in my city.

ALE,
Thanks for your welcome. I must admit that I was not familiar with Panerai watches until I looked through your section. What a stunning collection of information, photographs and reviews, I spent a couple of hours browsing through it.
I am now seriously considering getting a Pam as my next rep thanks to your direction and I look forward to spending more time reading your fantastic section.
Thanks again
Steve

Hi from Australia, you won't regret the pam. People will say they don't get pams there so plain. Something about there simplicity that makes you feel higher class when wearing one. This is something you find out when you put one on, and once it's on you won't look back.

Thanks again for the "hello's", and MauiDave that's a fantastic glossary and very cool watch... I can see that much of many time is going to be spent on this site, drooling and researching...and then buying !!
I can see that there is great support for "noobies".
Looking forward to speaking to you guys when I need some advice.
Take care.

I'm a noob myself, but I found I didn't understand a few things so I did the research and tried to put as much info in one place as possible. But thanks for the compliment makes it worth the time I spent making it. :)
