Watches and F1: The TAG Heuer Formula 1
When talking watches and Formula 1, one name comes up again and again- Heuer, or in more recent times TAG Heuer, and this series would be remiss without at least touching on the contributions TAG has made to both fields. TAG, short for Techniques d'Avant-Garde, made its F1 debut in 1980 as a sponsor for Williams GP, but their involvement in the sport grew soon afterward in 1983 when they co-developed the TAG-Porsche V6 power plant for the McLaren team.A deep professional partnership soon grew between the TAG and McLaren, and when TAG purchased Heuer in 1985, the newly created TAG Heuer brand quickly became McLaren's secondary sponsor behind Marlboro. To market this partnership, the first new release for the TAG Heuer brand in 1985 was the Formula 1- a budget-minded quartz that looked to extend the TAG Heuer name to a younger, sportier market. All of this is relatively common knowledge, however, and I never really paid any mind or took a liking to the Formula 1 until I did a little more

Speedmaster Versions
Currently, my #1 watch that I would like to try to obtain in the next few years is the classic black Speedmaster. I think it's the perfect blend of style, without screaming that I have a couple grand strapped to my wrist. It's iconic, but not as obvious as a Tag Monaco for example.Looking at the Omega site, there are many versions of this watch using different movements (with and without date, co axial, etc).Of the new ones, which version is most desirable for a man on a "modest" budget? I like the Automatic version with date, but I'm not sure if one version vs. another has a nicer movement, or will be more collectible. For example a local dealers showed me the moon version which was manual wind, and did not have a sapphire crystal.I'm afraid to buy a used or vintage one, since I'm not savvy enough to spot a fake. Omega gurus, let me know what you think.

Buying 15400 in UK
Hey all,Currently in the UK, about to travel back to the states. I have the opportunity to pick up the 15400 for ¡ê14300, and then get the tax back. Ultimately it comes out to just a hair under $16,000. However, looking at DavidSW, I see he has the 15400 for just under $14,000. Based on current Rolex prices, they're significantly cheaper over here but it seems that the same is not true for APs. Am I missing something here? Should I just go with DavidSW or is there some reason that getting the warranty and buying from an AD is that much better?Thanks!

New Speedmaster Racing
Just wanted to share a pic of my recent acquisition. My first Omega. Very happy with it so far. Will post some thoughts once I get some more wrist time with it. Let me know if you have questions. Cheers!
