In the 1960s, motor racing rose in a large scale, so the industry had high demands for accurate timepieces. Although few watch manufacturers could meet the demand, many tried their best towards the goal, Heuer included. On March 3rd, 1969, the first Monaco watch was launched in New York and Geneva at the same time, shocking the whole watchmaking industry. Heuer started its revolutional journey for the Monaco collection. The design for the Monaco collection made a stir in that time. Bold square watch case and a red chronograph hand broke conventional aesthetic appreciation. The Monaco collection has been aesthetic symbol of TAG Heuer. Although many think that TAG Heuer has lost its brand value, TAG Heuer Monaco is timeless.
TAG Heuer keeps moving and creating in watchmaking. Inspired by Le Mans 24 Hours Endurance Race, France, The unique 24 concept chronograph watch came with high-end craftsmanship. The dial bears a extra large number-24 at 12 O’clock. Blue and orange strips pay homage to Steve McQueen who chose TAG Heuer Monaco watch as his partner in his film LE MANS. Black PVD coating, ornate blue and orange and Unique design make my eyes catch the Monaco watch. Those who like the model or plan to buy its replica edition go on reading the article, and Swiss-made Replica TAG Heuer Monaco 24 Caliber 36 Chronograph Watch Ref. CAL5110.FC6265 $ 618 with Valjoux 7750 will come soon.
Exterior Features
To be honest, it’s not fair to compare real pictures of the replica Monaco Ref. CAL5110.FC6265 with refined pictures of the original edition. I contrasted pictures in different angles.The replica edition reaches up to 97% similarity. Why does it lose 4% strength? 1. Replica TAG Heuer Monaco has lighter black PVD coating watch case and dial. 2. Blue and orange stripes have different color degree from the original. 3. The high imitation version has a leather strap with beige lining, but original lining is black. 4. The original edition bears two steel screws on two sub-dials, but the replica version has two black PVD steel screws. In addition to 4 aspects, it looks good quality and expensive. What’s more, it has practical functions.
Functions
I researched a lot about the replica or fake reference CAL5110.FC6265.A few models have almost similar exterior features, but they have practical functions, even some crowns can’t be used to adjust time and date display. The model I’m introducing is a practical watch. Date displays at 6 o’clock. The second hand goes around the 30-second sub-dial all the time. The orange chronograph hand and the 15-minute counter play good parts in timing. We can appreciate the replica movement through sapphire case back.
