Luxury watchmaker TAG Heuer commemorates its restoration to Monaco with the unveiling of three restricted-edition timepieces.
TAG Heuer Unveils Special Edition Monaco Watches for the Formula 1 Grand Prix de Monaco
In an ode to the glamour of the Monte Carlo racetrack and its profound connection to the automotive world, TAG Heuer has unveiled three limited-edition Monaco watches. The unique timepieces commemorate the brand's return as the first title sponsor of the Formula 1 Grand Prix de Monaco.
TAG Heuer Monaco Chronograph x Gulf
The Gulf-striped Monaco, a vibrant tribute to the racing era, mirrors the colors of Steve McQueen's Porsche 917K and iconic racing suit. Limited to 971 pieces, the watch sports a silver grain dial adorned with Gulf's distinctive blue and orange racing livery. The noble Heuer shield above the dial adds a nostalgic touch, making it a wearable reel of racing history.
TAG Heuer Monaco Chronograph Stopwatch
For those who appreciate function over fashion, the Monaco Chronograph Stopwatch is a must-have. Encased in lightweight black DLC-coated titanium, it showcases a stark black circular dial inspired by the pit lane urgency of the 60s and 70s. Red accents across the minute track and high-contrast subdials emphasize its rugged character. The watch's technical heart, the Calibre 11, remains the beating rhythm with the familiar left-side crown.
TAG Heuer Monaco Split-Seconds Chronograph
The most daring timepiece in this trilogy, the Monaco Split-Seconds Chronograph, defies convention. With a TH-Titanium case housing the unique TH81-00 calibre crafted almost entirely from titanium, it boasts an innovative, elemental texture. Its lime green rattrapante hand, checkered-flag rotor, and racing-inspired accents make it a modern art piece.
Each watch in this special collection embodies the original Monaco's essence—technical ingenuity, bold design, and a spirit inscribed on the Monte Carlo tarmac. With nostalgia-drenched elegance and cutting-edge engineering, the watches celebrated TAG Heuer's homecoming to Monaco with unparalleled flair.
The TAG Heuer Monaco finds its roots in 1969 when it was introduced as the world's first square, water-resistant automatic chronograph. Its groundbreaking design with a distinctive left-side crown captured the imagination of the watchmaking industry. Fast forward to 2025, in honor of their continued involvement in motorsport, TAG Heuer reimagines this iconic watch, offering a thrilling blend of past and future.
- The TAG Heuer Monaco Split-Seconds Chronograph, with its innovative design and racing-inspired accents, showcases a modern representation of the brand's rich history in both culture and technology, continuing the lineage started in 1969 with the original Monaco.
- The TAG Heuer Monaco Chronograph Stopwatch serves as a testament to the brand's commitment to both the automotive world and the evolution of technology, blending the urgency of the 60s and 70s pit lane with contemporary engineering.
