So i am new to the tag scene and i saw one the other day that really caught my eye. It was a white dial Monaco. I contacted Angus but he cant get one. I also did a search on here but no luck. anyone know if this has been repped?

No factory has ever made an accurate Monaco. The Monaco along with the Omega Moon Watch would sell like crazy if they ever repped them properly.

Something the Factories should consider.

Hi, first post ;)

Agreed - I've never seen an accurate Monaco let alone the Gulf.

Canada, but in Hungary... for now
I have the Monaco 24 with the 7750, which I think is about as good as the reps come. It's been at Goin's spa for a long time, but I'm supposed to get it back this week - fingers crossed

Hey salleno, Goin is now putting a new movement in it. He's had it since the end of January. He tried to fix the original movement but couldn't, so now he's sourcing a new 7750 ( not easy because of the weird seconds at 3 and chrono minute at 9). Then he'll service it and send it back.
I am sooo done with this watch. I loved it but with all the frustration, I never want to see it again. Unfortunately, I've now got a lot of money invested in it but I don't mind taking a hit to get it out of my life. Funny though, with the servicing it'll be in better condition than ever and I don't want it. Ha!
It's the same as the one in your link that Angus charges $348 plus $25 shipping. I'll probably let it go for $320 plus PP fees and actual shipping cost.
I wanted one for so long and was so happy to finally find a dealer who actually had one, and then of this happened. Sniff sniff

They can't rep the monaco because there is no movement for it. Same goes for the moonwatch.

That's a shame.

I'm so tempted to get one even if it's not a super rep just because I love the looks so much.

Hope your watch turns out fine panermaniac.

Does the entire wheel spin on yours or is that black wheel stationary?

It's frustrating, I'd love one of these or a Monza.
