Heuer Clocks in SInger Porsches = Fakes

These are fakes / unauthorized / custom-made clocks . . . no license from or involvement from TAG Heuer. Made by a local shop, to Singer's specifications.

Doesn't it seem strange -- from perspective of both Singer and the customer -- to invest this much in an amazing car, then be staring at a fake clock?

This could have been a great opportunity for a series of clocks, actually authorized by TAG Heuer. Wouldn't you just love to have one of these!!

: Manuel,
: Yes, these are interesting. We first saw them (I believe) when the
: uber cool custom Singer Porsche photos did the rounds.. there
: seems to be a few different types. Many of us presumed that they
: weren't totally legit.. but I wonder if they bought a license to
: make them, or as they are custom cars/instruments, that they
: aren't technically connected to Heuer / TAG Heuer.. either way,
: they do look cool in the cars...
