The New TAG Heuer Monaco Caliber 02, The First Monaco With A In House Movement (Price & Specs)
This launch sees the Monaco with not only an updated appearance, but a technological first as well. For the first time in its half-century history, the Monaco is powered by an in-house manufacture movement, Calber 02.
The Monaco Heuer 02 introduces a radiant blue PVD sunray dial, featuring updated silver opaline counters at 3 and 9 o’clock and a new permanent second indicator above the date at 6 o’clock.
The in-house Heuer 02, an automatic movement, comes with a power reserve of 80 hours and a Frequency 28,800 vibrations per hour (4Hz).
The TAG Heuer Monaco Caliber 02 comes with a navy alligator leather strap with a polished steel folding clasp.
TAG Heuer Monaco Calibre 12
Alongside this new release, TAG Heuer introduce a final edition of the Calibre 12 movement limited to only 1,000 pieces. The Monaco timepiece is distinguished by a refreshed design and contemporary grey dial.
Calibre 12 Movement
In contrast to the movement that initially equipped the Monaco – Calibre 11 – the Calibre 12 gave the renowned timepiece a sleek, traditional appearance, because it
required the crown to be on the right side of the case.
A Stunning Grey Dial
This stainless-steel model features a vertically brushed ruthenium dial. Ruthenium has a dynamic iridescent colour that changes in different shades of light.
