TAG Heuer Monaco
"Pure Vintage Elegance"
The TAG Heuer Monaco, also unofficially called "the Steve McQueen Chronograph", made second place in Motorcycle's top motorsports watches of all time. Considering the number one spot was taken by a Rolex (the Daytona, which Proud & Free sells at a discount for $69,999) most would consider this an accomplishment:
"While the square-faced Monaco became legendary after Steve McQueen checked the time on one in the opening sequence of the greatest racing movie of all time, Le Mans, he did in fact also wear one in real life. Off the set, McQueen raced motorcycles with a fair amount of skill and was downright talented and quick in another early ’70s racing legend, the Porsche 908, a car in which he nearly won the 12 Hours of Sebring! Just as McQueen himself will always remain iconic, Heuer’s iconic timepiece also broke the wristwatch mold, as the first water-resistant timepiece with a square case and the first automatic chronograph. The Monaco is pure vintage elegance, just like the race itself."
