TAG Heuer Silverstone re-edition: Update

Posted by: DC   |   11 November 2009   |   4 Comments  

SilverstoneSome news on the TAG Heuer Silverstone re-edition, which we should be seeing in the next couple of months.

  • The watch will be very faithful to the original style and design of the Calibre 12 Silverstone, rather than being a modern reinterpretation- think the 1997 Heuer Carrera re-edition, rather than the TAG Heuer Autavia re-edition
  • This includes features such as the pushers, which will have a similar look to the original- unlike, for example the 40th anniversary Heuer Monaco which used the modern Monaco pushers
  • The big question for some collectors? Yes, the crown will be “where it should be”
  • Limited edition for the 150th anniversary rather than a new model

Can’t say much more for now, other than that the next few months will be exciting ones for Heuer and TAG Heuer fans, with themed auctions in Europe timed to coincide with the celebrations for TAG Heuer/ Heuer’s 150th anniversary.

    Hey DC
    Yes crown and pushers all good news, brown and blue colours so i hear and February for first PR push (is that what you hear?). I’m not sure it will be as limited as the 1000 piece McQueen but then again it won’t be as expensive as that one either!

    Hi Rich-no idea on price, but I do hope its a little less than the Monaco….

    Cheers

    Based in previous experiences, I think it is safe to assume that this re-edition Silverstone will have a 30 minutes recording capability only, unlike the 12 hours of the original.

    Armando, yes, the new Silverstone has the “Calibre 11″ movement as per the 40th anniversary Monaco and so has a 30 minute counter.

    Cheers
