Kith-Heuer?

What is your opinion on the Tag? For some background, it is 200m (unlike the Swiftyfathoms), fully metal (also unlike the moonswatch), Sapphire (unlike the swatches), and 1500$ ๐Ÿ˜ฌ. Do you like the new Tag Heuer or the Swiftyfathoms and moonswatch

At least the new Kith Heuer F1s are steel and not plastic. Of course, they also cost significantly more than the Moonswatch.

Setting aside price, I like them, especially the white dial, blue bezel version in your poll.

The most expensive plastic watch I would buy are some of the G-Shocks with better specs for like 200-250โ‚ฌ. The MoonSwatch and Swifty Fathoms (nice nickname by the way) feel like overpriced plastic crap to me. Especially the moonswatches shouldnโ€™t cost more than 100โ‚ฌ.

The new Tags are also overpriced (obviously) and I donโ€™t like them aesthetically. But thatโ€™s just personal preference.

Too expensive and too small. I bought an original in 1991 for ยฃ145 but I wouldnโ€™t wear it now (if I still had it) much as I loved it when I got it.

I like all of them, the only one Iโ€™d buy, and Iโ€™ve already bought one, is the Moonswatch. Theyโ€™re cool though. I like the designs.

All of the above!

Iโ€™ve got some moonswatches, thrifty fathoms, g shock. And I dare say Iโ€™ll pick up a kith Heuer too!

Was that the retail price or was it on sale?

I actually think it was less, more like ยฃ125 now that I've pondered it but it's been a while. That price was on the original blue plastic strap, the replacement steel one cost about ยฃ40 - ยฃ50 three years later. At this time though it was about ยฃ300 for a TAG 2000 and even an Omega was only hovering about ยฃ500. Still think these reissues are a bit too pricey though.

Just get a vintage f1 for like 300 and your sorted ๐Ÿ˜‚

Goddamn awful. A release to relieve brain-amputated baboons from the money they inherited.
