Tag Heuer has said they will re-issue one of their most iconic racing-inspired timepieces, the Monza chronograph, as a limited-edition men’s watch model.Originally introduced in the 1930s, the Tag Heuer Monza is distinguished by its round dial and cushion-cut case and was designed to emulate the curvature of the Autodromo Nazionale Monza, a famous Italian racing circuit.
The 38 mm model also celebrates Tag Heuer’s history by featuring the brand’s original Tag Heuer logo.
Tag Heuer’s relationship with Monza is deeply rooted in the brand’s motor racing heritage. From 1971 to 1979, Tag Heuer was the sponsor and official timekeeper of Team Ferrari. During this period, Team Ferrari won many victories at Monza. To honor this porion of Tag Heuer history, the Swiss watchmaker’s honorary chairman Jack Heuer named one of his stunning chronographs the Monza.
The latest Monza men’s watch offers an unparalleled level of timekeeping ingenuity, thanks to its high-frequency Calibre 36 movement. Oscillating at an astonishing 36,000 beats per hour, the Calibre 36 provides chronograph functions of 1/10th of a second. Consumers can view this powerful engine through the Monza’s screw-in sapphire crystal caseback.
The Monza watch features a textured, chocolate brown leather strap. Just 1, 911 Monza men’s watches are available, in recognition of the year Heuer’s Time of Trip, the world’s first dashboard chronograph, was patented. The Monza Swiss men’s watch retails for $7,900.
