take a closer look on these two Monacos. They both are very nice pieces and have the winding crown on their left side. The sales person told me that in their shop the left side model is more wanted than the Gulf because of being like the watch Steve McQue...  

Nice Monacos

If i had a choice, I’d pick the Gulf because it looks so good. But I feel Monaco pieces are overpriced nowadays and rather would get other brands for US6k range. It’s not that I cannot afford it, but because the price vs quality vs perceived value is unba...

Sure, love Steve and agree that's a factor but better yet is that Monaco versions with caliber 11 (crown on the left) don't say "TAG" on the dial. Also its the same layout as the original

I would only get the Gulf if i was connected to the company somehow. In fact, i dont care so much for McQueen himself but i like the orange detail. If there was no Gulf logo, i might have picked that over the McQueen.

This watch looked stunning

This Monaco is Limited Edition of 1000 pieces. There are lots of nice Monaco models. I will not buy but it is always great to take a closer look at them and try them on wrist. ...
