And since this weekend marks the return of GP in the streets of the Principality for the 2022 F1 season, it was the perfect time for the brand to release its latest special edition, the TAG Heuer Monaco Black Titanium.īorn in 1969, the Monaco has immediately been equipped with one of the most innovative movements of its time, the Calibre 11, one of the three first automatic chronograph calibres. And the name of the watch itself, paying tribute to the world’s most glamorous F1 race, might have helped this model to become a legend.

Part of the various watches dedicated to motorsport, alongside the Carrera, the Silverstone and the Monza, the Monaco has gained immense popularity after being worn in the 1971 movie Le Mans on the wrist of Steve McQueen. It does not store any personal data.When it comes to TAG Heuer, it hardly gets more emblematic than the square-shaped Monaco.

Hopefully the team can keep pressure on a pair of mighty Mercs to keep the season interesting, regardless it should make for some good watch spotting alongside the new IWC which we’ll likely see Lewis or Valtteri sporting, and the latest Richard Mille for McLaren that might pop up on the wrist of Lando or Ricciardo (or even a Bremont on George Russell ?).
#Tag heuer monaco titan limited edition drivers
TAG Heuer is the sponsor of the Red Bull Racing Honda F1 team, with two of the top drivers on the grid in Max Verstappen and Sergio Pérez, either of whom might be sporting this very watch during press events (and likely podium) over the weekend so keep a sharp eye out. There is no special oscillating weight here, so temper your expectations.
The watch has an open caseback offering a view of the movement, should you desire.
Inside, TAG Heuer is using the automatic Caliber 11, which is a base Sellita SW300 with Dubois-Depraz module these days. This is one of the most handsome executions of the Monaco in recent memory and the use of titanium for the case should make this square case much easier to wear than the steel variety. Solid black registers create a panda effect with the dial, and the monochrome theme is only broken by a deep red timing seconds hand and the central section of the 12 o’clock hour marker at the top of the dial.
