Yes, it is out of production and is incrementally becoming more and more valuable. If they release another, it may make these become less so over time because the original Monaco was made under just Heuer's reign. This one is a TAG Heuer so that gives it a little specialness all its own.Quote:

don't suppose you have any links/articles/refences about it being discontinued? I've seen that speculation in a few places now.
Micky, I read your statement above and saw that it's the current model Monaco, not the 1998 first re-issue, which is out of production of course, and not the 2001 Ferret model. These models were limited. The new Monaco regular production models, from late 2004 forward, are not going to be discontinued any time soon as they are very popular. A LexisNexis double check corrected me. :pQuote:

Outstanding series Posh. I am a known fashion disaster, so this is vital info :)
One correction though... McQueen's boots in the Great Escape weren't Clarks Desert Boots. Unlike most of his costume for that film, from the tailored leather A2 Flight jacket to his slim fitting faux US Army chinos, the boots were a military issue item. Specifically they were US Army M-43 roughout "service shoes".
You can buy a pair manufactured by the legendary Eastman leather company here: http://www.buzzricksons.com/43-service-shoes-p-40.html

Will those suits make me look thinner?
