New Watch...and its not a Rolex...

I received this watch as a gift today and as someone who has been a Rolex wearer for a few years now, I must say that this watch really looks good for a non-Rolex watch.

Its a limited edition. Tag Grand Carrera UK Limited Edition 104/250

What do you think guys ?

honestly, I think the watch is fine, but its just a little bit big for your wrists imho. overhanging lugs.

I didn't think it is too big for you and why don't you introduce your friend to us. I could use a gift... :)

Very nice! The TAG Grand Carerras and calibre 36 models (they use a Zenith El Primero movement) are all at a different level to the type of TAG's that non-WIS's normall purchase. Congrats!

its the lens perspective.. note the hand is much larger because its closest to the lens.


Nice watch!

I concur. Which again raises the question: Why can't Rolex put a date on its Daytona. It is so in need of one.
