Wearing my 50th anniversary Gulf Racing Monaco today, I had several dishes to time for dinner. I saw this at the AD the day after they put it out. I thought about it overnight, and came back. Somebody else was trying on MY watch! Well, he put it down and HE left to think about it. I snatched it right up. I love this watch. I actually like that it's a Calibre 11 movement instead of the new in-house movement. And off-the-shelf movement with a Dubois Depraz chrono module is more authentic to the original Monaco. The Gulf Racing colors match mu company colors perfectly, and I always wear it on days when I wear a company shirt. It also goes well with my vintage TI calculators.
