Description

TAG Heuer celebrates the 40th anniversary of the Steeve Mcqueens trendsetting MONACO, and pays tribute to its new partnership with motor-racing icon Gulf Oil with a new limited edition version of the vintage MONACO – with for the first time an elegant, anti-reflective sapphire crystal front and back. The larger (39mm) case gives the watch a more contemporary look, while the orange and blue meteor dial design, inspired by the Porsche Gulf 917K driven by Steve Mcqueen in Le Mans, expresses its professional racing heritage. Vintage "Gulf" logo and date window at 6 oclock, small second at 3 and chronograph minute at 9, faceted and a stylish grey alligator strap with grey stitching – the 5,000-piece edition is a racing purists dream machine.

Supplied by the brand to the GPHG for its entry.
