About the TAG Heuer Monaco Collection

The TAG Heuer Monaco, introduced in 1969 to honour the Monaco Grand Prix, made horological history with their debut as the world's first automatic chronograph in a square case. Developed in collaboration with Breitling, Hamilton-Buren and Dubois-Depraz, the collection featured the innovative calibre 11 movement, redefining watchmaking standards. Its status became iconic when it was worn by Steve McQueen in the 1970 film "Le Mans," cementing its association with motorsport. Over the decades, Monaco has evolved with various iterations and advancements, consistently celebrating its storied legacy while embracing modern technological progress.

Design Distinction

The TAG Heuer Monaco is celebrated for its distinctive square case- a striking break from the round watch designs that prevailed when it debuted in 1969. The dial, complemented by sub-dials for the chronograph functions, highlights the watch’s unique aesthetic. Over the years, Monaco has evolved with modern updates while retaining its signature square shape. The 2019 Monaco calibre Heuer 02, for example, reimagines the classic with a contemporary sunburst dial along with an updated crown position. Special editions, like the Monaco Green Dial with its gradient green sunburst, further demonstrate the collection's versatility and enduring appeal.

Innovative Iterations

The TAG Heuer Monaco reflects a blend of innovation and tradition through its evolving technical features. The Monaco V4 showcases a breakthrough in horological engineering with a tungsten linear mass, a belt-drive system and a V-shaped plate with four ball-bearing-mounted barrels inspired by Formula 1 engine cylinders. In contrast, the 2021 Monaco Green Dial, powered by the advanced Heuer 02 movement, offers an 80-hour power reserve, combining modern technology with classic design. Meanwhile, the hand-wound Valjoux models provide a traditional winding experience honouring the watch's heritage. Each Monaco iteration embodies TAG Heuer's commitment to innovation and craftsmanship.
