    Well, all I can say is Wow! That’s a lot a watch, even for one owned by the man that became synonymous with this brand and model in particular. I own a Monaco and first saw it strapped to McQueen’s wrist many decades ago. It’s been my dream watch and I wear it every day.

      Yea, it is a bit crazy, IMHO!
      Congrats again on your Monaco.
