Reminder that there are some interesting chronographs in the COVID-19 Solidarity Auction, being produced by Revolution and The Rake. The auction closes at 15:00 GMT on Monday, June 22, 2020.
The TAG Heuer Carrera Heuer 02 Tourbillon (Lot 6) is an interesting watch, as it uses the upside down TAG Heuer "Stay Home" logo; a unique piece, as it is the only watch that uses this logo. The auction of this Carrera includes a special experience for the winner -- a visit to the TAG Heuer manufacture to meet with the watchmakers working on the watch and to make the final design decisions, and a trip to Monaco, in Spring 2021, to take delivery of the completed watch.

Well done by Revolution for producing this charity auction and all the brands for contributing these unique "Odd Ball" pieces.
