To celebrate the 40th Anniversary of the Steve McQueen’s trendsetting Tag Heuer Monaco watch replica, and to pay tribute to TAG Heuer’s new partnership with Gulf, a new limited edition version of the vintage chronograph – with for the first time an elegant, anti-reflective sapphire crystal front and back – is slated for worldwide launch in September 2009.
Tag Heuer Monaco Calibre 12 Chronograph Gulf replica
The larger (39mm) case gives the mens Tag heuer copy watch a more contemporary look, while the orange and blue meteor dial design, inspired by the Porsche Gulf 917K driven by Steve McQueen in Le Mans, expresses its professional racing heritage. Vintage “Gulf” logo and date window at 6 o’clock, small second at 3 and chronograph minute at 9, faceted and a stylish grey alligator strap with grey stitching – the 5,000-pieces edition is a racing purist’s dream machine.
The seriously upgraded version houses the Swiss made fake TAG Heuer Calibre 12 Automatic Chronograph Movement, a high-performance all-Swiss engine based on the Dubois Depraz 2008.
