biffa Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 So we all know you can't get a decent monaco rep because the gen uses an ETA 2894 secs at 3, so its either faux chronos or a quartz. However not many people realise (i certainly didn't) that the present monaco is a not very accurate "rep" anyway and only bears a pasing ressemblance to the original McQueen monaco which had round pushers and the crown at 6. This model probably isn't "reppable" either so thats no help but there also seems to be another model with a manual movement which has three dials, secs at 6, crown at 3. http://www.specialistauctions.com/auctiond....php?id=1079010 Could this model be repped using the copy venus movement in the same way as the Newman Daytona as i'm sure it would be popular or is this another monaco pipe dream?

yellomen Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 not possible with modding the moveemnt... counter at 6 is a 24h counter which is not on the vintage Monaco... and from that small picture you posted i can say anything about subdial spacing... guess we will have to wait for a decent copy of the 2894 or the previous Dupraz module that was used in combination with the 2892-A2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
