What should I expect to pay for a TAG Monaco either new or second hand?

Depends on the model and movement.
Anywhere from £1500 to £3500 (top figure being current RRP!)
Budget £1700-1800 for a nicely looked after used one.
If you're after a Heuer Monaco then that's a different matter!

Budget about £4K for a good one!
I'll be very interested to see how much this fetches.

There are a fair few owners of original ones on DDK
I have one of the first 'McQueen Re-editions' which I am considering selling. They are great watches regardless of the Porsche association.

I do like that...
I've got a 2 year old white face Daytona - pretty much the same watch but without the zenith movement and silver small dials rather than black.
the price you are asking seems very reasonable based on what i paid for a less desirable model....
