·I couldn't decide between the Montreal and the Silver, kept going back & forth on which one I liked better. I couldn't afford to buy two, so ended up buying neither, and then later decided on the Dato.
To be honest, they are all gorgeous but you made a great decision as Dato 45 is good looking, classy, and really limited The reason that I got the Montreal was just an amazing coincidence: I have seen it in the Boutique, while I was purchasing the teal one, I liked it and one day later, I found a great deal with a private collector and snatched it
I'm looking to get the Montreal to go with the Silver 160th and wondered what type of price they are selling for.
I have got mine around 4400 USD in near new condition with full set, but as I said it was a really lucky find, where the selling collector needed the money to buy a Starbucks from the Boutique (Yes, lucky guy ), so he really didn't care about extra 500-1000 USD that he will get by waiting. But realistically I think you may find one in good condition, full set around 5300 - 5500 USD range. Also, keep in mind that you may still find them in the boutiques as they are still not fully sold-out and since it has been a while now since they are introduced, you have a good position to negotiate with them...
Also, note that there is another 39mm Glassbox Carrera coming up tomorrow. 500 pieces limited with an absolutely remarkable teal dial. I feel this will be sold out quite quickly as it is a gorgeous piece. This one may be a good option for you to go with your Ice King
I had a look at the new Teal Carrera last week.
It doesn't grab me.
I think the whole green dial fad is hot right now with many Brands but in time will pass.
I'm more into the classic Carrera and wish for a Panda in the future. Montreal I was thinking about just to have the set of 160th pieces.
All the best with your Teal Carrera. Look forward to seeing many pics of it.
Yeah still undecided. Will see if I can get my AD to source one and decide from there.
Hopefully your guy in NJ can come through for you again. Whenever I see pics of the Montreal, I really really like it. The only thing that held me back was the thought of TAG Heuer coming out with a classic panda re-edition, as I'd want that even more.
You guys best start working on becoming friends with someone at Hodinkee so you can get one of the 50 pandas they will make
