SUMMARY
The TAG Heuer Monaco is a modern descendant of Heuer’s iconic and long-running motorsports watch. This particular reference is a contemporary version of the Monaco worn by Steve McQueen wore in the 1971 film Le Mans; reference 1133B. The film along with the use of Heuer’s in racing cemented the Monaco as one of the most collectable racing chronographs ever. Measuring 39mm, with a combination of brushed and polished elements, the distinctive square silhouette is complemented by the iconic blue dial. Two contrasting sub-dials display the chronograph timing, with applied hour markers and a circular minutes track providing additional visual interest.
