Please can you check the following photos ? I know that the clasp of original Monaco is not like this, and caliber 12 automatic have open caseback.

can sb experienced Monaco lover clarify that this is a replica or not ?

The dial on the watch from the replica forum is different then yours. Maybe look up photos of legit Monacos and compare them to yours?

I am doing it all day today! The back case I always see is windowed , and the clasp tag heuer logo is different ..

They both have the same serial number - YF6789. That number is not registered with Tag Heuer.

Ask yourself... why would a watch that retails for around 5000 euro be selling for 2000.
It appears to be a replica and all your suspicions are correct.

Correct Caseback...

Yes! It’s this YF6789 that worried me and now I google this and some of the hits I get is replica forums

Yes I will . However the watch is already coming I think.

I have to prove it somehow as soon as possible because I bought it through chrono24.. I must find hard evidence so they they don’t release the money

@Kargol, I am feeling very sympathetic for you, but at the same time, I'm thinking that your avatar has never been more appropriate. I suggest contacting the seller, their response will be very telling.

Hahahahah. Yes I am exactly like my avatar now.
i did contact the seller . I am waiting for him to send me the receipt and the photos he has taken at the cards papers etc. I already reported his add to chrono24 , and I will send all the proof I have when they ask me .

the funny thing is that I am now seeing all watches a s replicas and it will be too long until my next buy.. 😀

Is the seller a private or professional seller?

Having a Monaco

I could see on this photo below. The lack of crispness of edges of the case that it was a replica

A real one ( look at the shape of the pushers on the two )

I have this model, on a alligator/crocodile strap , (the 35th anniversary)

one thing the Monaco is is square to the max as far as edges

He is a private seller ..

Call Chrono24 and ask for assistance if you bought the watch on C24. Don’t wait any longer. Since their platform was used in a counterfeit watch sale, I believe they will make everything possible to help you to recover.

...or at least they really should, IMHO.

I have found Chrono 24 customer service to be very good - 100% worth a phone call and let them explain what they need to hold the payment / what actions you can take.
