TAG Heuer Monaco Chronograph – A Bold Tribute to Las Vegas
TAG Heuer brings the energy of Las Vegas to life with the latest Monaco Chronograph, a vibrant pink-accented timepiece that merges the brand’s daring heritage with modern design. This bold interpretation of the iconic Monaco captures the essence of the Strip—a city synonymous with individuality and excitement.
The Monaco Legacy
Since its debut in 1969, the TAG Heuer Monaco has stood out for its avant-garde square case, left-sided crown, and association with motorsport legend Steve McQueen in the 1971 film Le Mans. These features cemented its status as both a horological and cultural icon. Over the decades, the Monaco has evolved while staying true to its roots, continually pushing the boundaries of design and precision.
This latest iteration celebrates Las Vegas’ playful vibrancy while remaining anchored in the Monaco’s storied legacy of innovation.
A Design That Dares
The watch’s vivid pink skeleton dial is a striking centerpiece, reflecting the city’s lively energy. Bold pink accents highlight the chronograph counters at 3 and 9 o’clock, the seconds hand, and the oscillating weight visible through the sapphire caseback. Set against a sandblasted black DLC-coated grade 2 titanium case, the design balances contemporary flair with TAG Heuer’s motor racing DNA.
Sized at 39mm, the lightweight titanium case ensures all-day comfort, while light blue Super-LumiNova on the indexes and hands guarantees visibility in any setting.
Performance and Precision
At its core is the in-house calibre TH20-00, TAG Heuer’s latest automatic chronograph movement, delivering precision and reliability with an 80-hour power reserve. The column wheel mechanism and oscillating weight, visible through the skeletonized dial and caseback, showcase TAG Heuer’s technical expertise and attention to detail.
The chronograph functionality includes a 30-minute counter at 3 o’clock, a 12-hour counter at 9 o’clock, and a permanent seconds display at 6 o’clock—features that make the watch as functional as it is striking.
A Strap Built for Adventure
The Monaco’s strap, a blend of black calfskin leather and rubber, complements its bold design and ensures durability. Its versatility allows it to transition seamlessly from everyday wear to high-energy occasions.
A Celebration of Boldness
The latest TAG Heuer Monaco Chronograph embodies the excitement of Las Vegas and the spirit of individuality. With its daring design, technical innovation, and vibrant personality, it’s a timepiece for those unafraid to stand out. Available now, this watch invites collectors and enthusiasts alike to embrace a new chapter in the Monaco’s enduring story.
