It's a bit fiddly. FWIW I prefer the standard Monaco. Anyway, are you
sure you don't want this one:

ROFL. In fact a piece of crap.
Let's not mention all the bull*** in the promo, like their attempt at
lessening the advancements in the rest of the watch trade by saying
that nothing has changed in mechanical movements..
It is overdone, with it's reliability questionable, aimed at the
easily fooled. Luckily(??) TAG can make these things, because enough
idiots buy their watches with $20 generic movements for 2,000 bucks.

No?

Yep. Although 14mm thick is a huge watch. Patek would've(and have)
done that with only 7 or 8mms, but that's what happens when you take
one of your basic movements, change a couple of bits to increase it's
beat and make it seem like it costs a million dollars.
