Got to say that this one seems pretty strange to me, but until we see the movement, it's difficult to assess.

TAG Heuer takes a New Old Stock Monaco circa 1969 . . . then, TAG Heuer watchmakers disassemble the movement and "apply high grade finishing" on every part, including mirror polishing functional surfaces, screw heads and adding three new jewels to create a "unique art piece".

Looking forward to seeing this movement!!

Of course, what makes it a bit strange is that the theme of this auction is "Game Changers" . . . highlights include watches from Marlon Brando, Jack Nicklaus, John Glenn and many others who changed the world, or at least their realms. I suppose the "angle" will be that the Monaco changed the game, with its unique style. Still, might have been more interesting to have a Heuer from Steve McQueen, Mario Andretti, Carroll Shelby, etc.
