As worn by iconoclast Steve McQueen in his 1970 film “Le Mans”, the square faced watch with distinctive blue dial with white sub dials has since become an enduring symbol of classic motor racing culture.

The Heuer MONACO Calibre 11 is the perfect modern recreation of the original, capturing the look and feel while utilising up to date technology to improve the durability and wearability of the watch, making sure it is ready for the type of adventures McQueen would approve of.
