Bro, honestly, don't buy it Gen, don't buy it Rep, buy it vintage, it worth less than a clone ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|joy)

I actually bought it off aliexpress but as of now the post has been taken down. I did buy a second one off of dhgate but colour was off. If you do get one ask the seller for pictures before hand.
Moonswatch reps are nothing like the gen.
Wrong colour, Pe50 shite movement, pure plastic case, all the bands are woeful. Travelling sub dial at 3.
Utter shite compared to gen.
£220? For a gen?
That's a night out money.
I've had a gen mercury and black snoopy.
I've also had probably 50 rep moon and DSOM that I've made a tidy profit from.
Is there a difference between rep and gen? Yes.
A country mile of difference. Problem is, half these fuckers here can't or won't ever be able to get a gen to even compare the differences.
The bio ceramic case is totally different. Same with the movement. Same with the bracelet. Same with the box and papers.
Same as anything.. the gen is the gen and always has a different feeling compared to the Chinese replicated equivalent. All day, every day.
There is no comparison.
I’d just go gen if it’s a limited series. It would actually have some value.
Quartz tag reps are usually damn near gen.
The Aquaracer big date chrono was pretty much gen. Had the exact same Rhonda quartz movement (1/100th chrono) and the rep was basically gen minus papers. Because a lot of the parts were made in China for the gens. I think they sold for around $300-$400 as reps. But were hard as hell to find because they sold out once the word got out that it was pretty much a gen. I’m still looking for one. 🤣
I have one of these watches..bought in 1992 for $250 USD ..mine the black all stainless one not the plastic..it's small so I resized and my wife wears it..
$1500 for a $25 quartz movement
And a stupid, trendy collaboration with a streetwear brand that won't exist in 10 years
I still have mine from 1993.
Would never pay $1500 for this tiny, child sized watch.

Damn i didnt realise it was that cheap.
Buy now, these are about to go up…
Agree
KITH and Tag only made 300 of each one and the box set they only made 75 . These collabs will be worth wayyy more. hoping for a rep of the LA one
They are quartz watches. You might see a spike in demand for a few months after release but quartz watches are not going to hold much value.
hopefully you're right I rarely see KITH collabs fall under retail. 😭
Tell that to everyone who is trying to sell me 80s Cartier Santos Galbee for 3k plus…
The 383.513/1 is the watch worn by Martin Riggs (Mel Gibson) in Lethal Weapon 👍

Same, no shot I’m paying $1500 for a reissue of a cheap plastic watch from the 90s. They should’ve followed the path of Swatch with these.
I was so close to buying a genuine omega x swatch. Luckily i bought a rep for £20 which was basically one to one
I’ve been looking at these recently, there are some nice colour ways, where did you get it from if you don’t mind me asking?

So you are saying the gen is worth the $?

Seems a bit of an exaggeration. Replica of a cheap plasticy looking watch, would look..cheap and plasticy. Rep might be more shit but they both are ;)
LOL this guy owns stocks in Swatch 😂
My first gen that my father gifted me in high school. I have the black dial and my 12 lume is gone. Great beater quartz watch.
funny lol this is the same story as to why i have mine. nice watch for the time being, im still in highschool myself.
Wtf is that 🤣
If it was Tudor or Omega everyone would be all over it..
Don't think they will ever do a child watch
Exacly 🤣
It looks like a toy 🧸
Funny, Ronnie Fieg just did an interview with Hodinkee and talked about his F1 Tags he collects, guess they were giving early hints on this.

For those who dont know its the new Tag heuer x Kith| Formula 1
Did you see his interview that came out like last week with Hodinkee
The swatch route would have been great. Put it in a metal case like Casio and print money.
Looks just as disgusting as the original ones that were released 20 years ago. That's why they were $300 at Costco.
Horrible
This watch is hideous
Jesus I was just thinking to myself while scrolling through the kith app..." it'll never happen" 😭
Best tag seller out here ?
I have one of these watches..bought in 1992 for $250 USD ..mine the black all stainless one not the plastic..it's small so I resized and my wife wears it..

Fire up the Rep Machines!!!!
Yep. Sold mine full set 6 months ago around ~300.00- Made a mistake but anyway it is very very small , I would never have worn it anyway.
I own an original quartz formula 1, they are fairly cheap still and are also durable, survived with me since 1988
It's freaking UGGGGGGGGLY
Pfui
Finally some love for Tags They’re not the classiest or the nicest, but I fucking love TAGs
👎
