I havent got a TAG - should that worry me?

And you should read the thread before posting... I have two breitling watches (although I'd flick them if I could be bothered)

Pay no attention to Baldrick's photos. The odds are he'd be able to photography a turd and it'd look admirable.

 

 

I'm in the same boat, never had a TAG, none IMO look good enough to want to buy. The style doesn't appeal to me.

 

 

The bigger concern is your lack of Jaeger, Vach, patek or AP... ;)

This and the Monaco are the only two that interest me but I also agree the Link is a great rep. They do chronos right. E0995067-7D72-4772-8D2A-7CE4E9CAC8D6-49082-0000024D98A2FEDB.jpg

Should I then ask the question..... Should I own a PAM ???

 

They all look the same to me. If I put a Tag aquaracer, Monaco, Grand Carrera, Carrera and Link next to each other, there is a DISTINCT difference between them... Not So ?

 

So I guess it all up to what you like and the style ow watch you like.

 

I guess your watch collection is just as empty without a TAG as mine is without a PAM

Pam111 and Pam183 look just the same...

 

Pams are more different from the crowd than tags are - the crown guard alone sets them apart

Is'nt Porche also german .... And they all look the same too... It the engine in the back that sets them apart .. Not so ?

 

All I know it that my Rep 'Opel' is just as replicated as your 'Other german' "swiss watch"

 

Frankly .... I dont get this watch snobbery in a forum filled with people that all collect REPLICA watches

Not snobbery. Tags just haven't much to offer in their designs. Heuer had more to offer, and the occasional top end model is interesting... But mostly, there's not much to see.

Can't really call Tags' "Swiss" anymore,........ anyway...seeing as they will have a Seiko motor into the future!

More like Japiss, or Swijap.

Never did much for me tbh, with maybe a couple of close to classic exceptions.

The only watch by that company that I have any interest in is the Heuer Monaco chrono....WITHOUT "Tag" on the dial...

As an old time TZ'er, watch snob, Tag has always "left me cold" as a "wannabe" high end watch...

I used to feel the same way about Breitling too, but I outgrew it when the really nice SFSO's showed up a few years ago....

 

Sadly, no decent rep of the McQueen watch currently exists....
