Once upon a time, on the Le Mans circuit, Steve McQueen at the wheel of his Porsche 917. On his wrist, the Monaco.
An automatic, square, blue chronograph that suddenly disturbed the tidy world of small, round and white watches …
A cobblestone in the watchmaking pool that continues to make waves forty years later. This beautiful foreigner, who had become an icon, deserved offspring at the height of her popularity.
TAG Heuer is therefore launching the TAG Heuer Monaco LS Chronograph Caliber 12 replica watch, in order to offer this legendary collection a new opportunity to express its genetic code.
The movement
On the movement side, this piece is fitted with a Dubois Depraz base caliber allowing a linear reading of the current second, indicated in a linear date window, through the end of a red and rhodium double hand.
On the dial side, inspired by the Monaco 360 Concept Chronograph, the polished bridges, luminescent applied indexes, chronograph counters and the bevelled date window are replicated in a black and deliberately technical score.
The case
As for the case, waterproof to 100 m, it imposes its 40.5 mm of polished or brushed steel as obvious, thanks to ergonomics favored by a domed and bevelled sapphire crystal. The spirit of the Monaco V4 is not far away …
For the strap, the black alligator fitted with a folding clasp appears as the classic and elegant version while the steel, with its unique micro-adjustment device, assumes the resolutely futuristic bias of this new TAG Heuer.
McQueen versus Hamilton
Bringing new life to a watchmaking legend, TAG Heuer knows how to do it.
Resurrecting Steve McQueen is more complicated. An actor but above all a pilot, he said: “Motor racing is about life. Anything before or after is just waiting. “
A phrase that Lewis Hamilton, the 2008 Formula 1 World Champion, would not have denied, he who, at the age of ten, was pulling on Ron Dennis’ sleeve by asserting: “One day, I will drive a McLaren. “.
Thanks to the magic of cinema, TAG Heuer made possible the unlikely encounter between the holy monster of Hollywood and the virtuoso of the circuits. For the duration of a film, they responded to each other, they challenged each other, they crossed swords.
On the wrist of the first, the original Monaco, on that of the second, the Monaco LS. A modern day duel that features one of the great engines of history: the spirit of competition.
