TAG Heuer Monaco | HODINKEE Spec Sheet | What You Need To Know

Welcome to HODINKEE's Spec Sheet, where we use digestible, 60-second clips to showcase everything you need to know about a particular watch. The Spec Sheet hits all the details: Case size, wrist feel, thickness, movement, reference number, and (yes!) lug-to-lug dimensions. It's the next best thing to having the watch in your own hands. While the high price of a vintage Monaco gave us pause before recommending such a bold watch, any concern is alleviated with the modern TAG Heuer Monaco. It remains faithful to the original Monaco – famous for all kinds of things, from being worn on Steve McQueen's wrist in the movie Le Mans, to housing the world's first mass-produced automatic chronograph movement (the caliber 11) – but it ditches some of those vintage inconveniences for modern practicality. Most notably, the modern Monaco (ref. CAW2111) moves the crown from the left-hand side to the right-hand side for a more conventional configuration.
