I’m not the target audience for this one but $8100 is bonkers on a nato. No thanks.

Comes with a Bund-like strap as well, but point taken.

Logo, and price, are a deal breaker, but I will own a re-edition Carrera some day. Such clean, timeless designs.

I'm sure this means Tag will come out with many more non-LE and LE Carreras just like this, as they did with the Autavia.

True, but it's Breitling's B01 chrono movement with a few mods by Tudor and it's not an LE.

I see it as an ugly lightning logo, and the SS didn’t even cross my mind until yo said something. It’s not “close” as you say but you can make the leap if you stretch.

And my mother and grandparents escaped a concentration camp so I’m sensitive as well. But not to that case back.
