: Sorry to say there is no need to hesitate about putting it in your

: The case on your watch is thicker and the glass appears to be
: recessed rather than standing proud of the case as it does in

: though the main timekeeping hands seem to be close to the
: original. The crown is wrong, as are the pushers - again see the
: photo above.

: have the date window - that looks to be copying the re-issue
: Carreras rather than the Monaco.
: Good luck in trying to sort this out, as there is no doubt
: whatsoever that it's not a genuine TAG-Heuer.
