Heuer Monaco question for those in the know

Today I spotted what appeared to be a Monaco in the wild, though only from a distance. It had all the hallmarks of the Monaco (again, at least from that distance), except that the dial was white and the sub-dials appeared blue/black (again, unsure from that distance). It was also on a bracelet.

The "new" Monaco's appear to only come in blue or black dials.

Anyone know what the watch may have been, Monaco or not? It looked great - like a Monaco panda.

I tried to get a shot, but from my distance and mis-focus it doesn't offer much assistance:




For what it's worth, it was on this guy's wrist . . . older Italian men really get in there!

Could go either way, as far as I know... I wonder if that limited edition also came in a version with darker sub-dials? Otherwise looking spot on.
