Nice. I especially like the black sub dial hands. They offer a perfect contrast to the black sub dial...

: In the past week i have been offfered or been asked about 4 re-dial

: , this seller has a blue and a black (only seen one black one

: It is interesting that espeically the 73633 variants mostly have no

: letter from TagHeuer authenticating them...well for me i'd
: rather bin this piece of paper as i have several of these dials
: and have inspected them closely, they do not resemble the
: authentic ones in all the crucial aspects of script, layout,
: detailing, painted markers and incorrect hands etc etc
: etc...They may have started out as genuine heuer watches and
: share many parts that are (which i guess is why Tag are happy to
: authenticate and service them) but these dials are not original.
: I'd respectfully suggest that anyone thinking of a Monaco purchase
: avoids these unless they are buying either for parts or with the
: knowledge that they are not genuine original Heuer dials and are
: happy with that scenario...
: Cheers
