Replica TAG Heuer Monaco, the first version of the Heuer Monaco was finally launched at the Basel fair as the world's first waterproof automatic chronograph with a square case. But there are no legends without heroes and for the legendary Monaco chronograph the hero is, without doubt, Steve McQueen which gave exceptional exposure to the watch during the filming of the "Le Mans" movie, produced in 1970 and released in 1971. Today, the Monaco is one of the pillars of TAG Heuer and is available in several variations, including three-hand versions and smaller-sized models for Ladies.
