The TAG Heuer Monaco is an iconic luxury wristwatch known for its distinctive square case, setting it apart from traditional round watches. Introduced in 1969, it was among the first automatic chronographs, showcasing innovative watchmaking technology of its time.
The watch gained widespread fame due to its association with the legendary racing driver Steve McQueen, who famously wore it in the film “Le Mans.”
Its design features a bold, stainless steel case, typically measuring 39mm or 41mm, giving it a modern yet vintage appeal. The dial is highly legible, often including chronograph subdials, luminescent hands, and markers, emphasizing both style and functionality.
The Monaco’s strong connection to motorsport culture and racing heritage enhances its status as a symbol of performance and adrenaline. Over the years, TAG Heuer has released various limited editions and modern reinterpretations, continually evolving the Monaco’s design.
