TAG HEUER MONACO CHRONOGRAPH SKELETON
To mark the prestigious 2023 Monaco Grand Prix, Swiss luxury watch brand TAG Heuer has launched three new avant-garde, innovative and vibrant Monaco chronograph skeleton dial versions.
Over 50 years after the birth of the iconic Heuer Monaco, TAG Heuer is taking a further step towards a unique Monaco design by incorporating a skeleton dial. This marks the first time that the collection unveils the mechanism of the watch.
The modern Monaco Chronograph skeleton watch comes in three versions: Original Blue, Racing Red, and Turquoise. Each dial version tells a unique history.
The “Original Blue” draws inspiration from the first-ever TAG Heuer Monaco blue dial. The blue and red colours are featured on the dial, the blue on the column wheel and the oscillating mass engravings – an overall design paying homage to the TAG Heuer Monaco 1969 and its original success
The “Racing Red” nods to the racing DNA of the TAG Heuer Monaco, with the colour red often referencing the racing sparks made on the tracks
The black and silver colour touches are especially noticeable on the dial, along with the red column wheel and red engravings being visible on the oscillating mass, which completes the racing-inspired feel.
The “Turquoise” piece is the third watch to round-off the collection, offering a fresh and avant-garde take on TAG Heuer’s Monaco design
The engaging turquoise, a little nod to Monaco’s coastline and the red color can be seen specifically on the dial, with the turquoise also being sported on the column wheel and on the engravings of the oscillating mass.
The in-house Heuer 02 movement that powers all three timepieces employs a conventional column wheel to activate the chronograph and boasts an 80-hour power reserve. Its engraved oscillating mass is visible through the sapphire case back.
The new Monaco skeletons have a technical and rugged appearance thanks to their sandblasted titanium (grade 2) case
The Super-LumiNova
treatment on the carved indexes and hands of the watch adds an edgy and futuristic touch. The date window with the same luminous treatment is also a first for the TAG Heuer Monaco, making it easy to read in low-light conditions.
Each timepiece comes the innovative bi-material strap, which combines rubber and leather for optimal comfort and style. These straps come in black or blue respectively, adding to the watches’ overall racing appeal
