If it's cal15 day, it has to be burgundy
In Response To: L'embarras du choix - Difficult to decide... ()

This is a really crummy photo, but it shows the amazing colour of the burgundy fade of a 1533B.
I always wondered if there was ever a 1533P (Purple) but I guess we have to conclude it is the passage of time which created this cool version, not a Heuer designer. Probably.

Not to leave out that most elegant of the 1533's, the silver. Calling it grey is unfair to the subtlety of the watch. Definitely in my top 5 Monacos.
