New Watch (Second in my Collection)

Hello Everyone.

So i am mainly a rolex fan, but but there are those times where you cannot wear your rolex. so here is my new purchase as of today. Tag Heuer Grand Carrera. Once i saw this, it was game over for me. i love the way it looks, plain, but with a very high quality feel. especially with the spinning second hand at the bottom. Automatic of course with the Calibre 6 movement. Only 8 more watches to go, and probably another 8 years until my watch box is full.

Sorry for the bad iPhone pictures.
Enjoy!

I got my one and only Tag last year, an Aquaracer 500M. Those are two nice pieces you have there.

Congrats.

Looks good, I think it would look even better on a leather strap.
