Monaco 24 : CAL5111.FC6299

The TAG Heuer Monaco 24 McQueen (reference CAL5111.FC6299) is a notable model from the brand's Monaco collection, released in 2011. This watch features a sturdy steel case with a diameter of 40.5 mm and a transparent caseback that showcases its intricate inner mechanisms. The design takes inspiration from motor racing, notably paying homage to the legendary blue dial worn by Steve McQueen in the movie "Le Mans." The dial itself is adorned with an oversized "24" at the 12 o'clock position, echoing the spirit of the famous race. Equipped with an "Advanced Dynamic Absorber" system, this chronograph protects its movement against jolts and vibrations. The movement, a C.O.S.C.-certified Calibre 36, beats at a high frequency of 36,000 beats per hour and features an oscillating mass resembling a racing wheel, visible through the sapphire caseback. Overall, this timepiece blends precision engineering with a bold aesthetic rooted in racing heritage.
