TAG Heuer Monaco Steve McQueen Ref. CAW211P.FC6356 – Calibre 11 – Automatic 39mm – 2016 Full Set – Serviced by TAG Heuer

Info

The TAG Heuer Monaco Steve McQueen ref. CAW211P.FC6356 is far more than a timepiece – it is an icon that has transcended eras without ever losing its allure. Born to challenge the conventions of watchmaking, it has become a timeless symbol of freedom, speed, and uncompromising style.

Its legend began in 1971, when Steve McQueen wore it in the movie Le Mans. From that moment on, the Monaco was no longer just a chronograph – it became a statement of character. The bold 39 mm square case, revolutionary for its time, remains today one of the most distinctive and recognizable shapes in the world of horology.

Inside beats the automatic Calibre 11, heir to the innovation that, more than fifty years ago, introduced the very first automatic chronograph. The crown on the left side, an unusual yet iconic detail, pays tribute to the original model worn by McQueen himself.

The petrol-blue dial, enriched with white sub-registers and a striking red chronograph hand, captures the adrenaline of the racetrack, while the perforated leather strap recalls the racing gloves of the 1970s. It is a watch that embodies speed, courage, and elegance in equal measure.

Wearing the Monaco means embracing a legend: not merely a style accessory, but a true declaration of identity for those who see watchmaking as an art form and life itself as a race to be lived with passion.

Case, Bracelet, Dial & Glass

The stainless steel case of the TAG Heuer Monaco Steve McQueen ref. CAW211P.FC6356 retains all its sharp character, thanks to a professional polishing performed during the recent official TAG Heuer service. The satin and polished surfaces shine with their original appeal, while the caseback, left unpolished, shows only light signs of wear.

The black perforated leather strap, a hallmark of the Monaco’s racing DNA, remains in excellent condition, showing only minor creasing at the folding points. The stainless steel deployant clasp displays slight traces of wear, hardly noticeable and with no impact on either its functionality or elegance.

The petrol-blue dial, the beating heart of this Monaco, is pristine: applied indexes, hands, and the contrasting white/silver sub-registers are flawlessly preserved, ensuring superb legibility and timeless appeal.

Completing the ensemble, the sapphire crystal is perfectly clear and free of blemishes, offering unobstructed visibility of the dial beneath.
