Inspired by the powerful race cars, Tag Heuer has created the first chronograph Monaco dial with its emblematic square supported by Tag Heuer waterproof system. 40 years later, he paid tribute to 24 hours of Le Mansagain publishing the recent Monaco 24 Concept Chronograph.

The black textured dial 40.5mm is produced from industrial grade tungsten impregnated carbon. This material is specially developed for racing and aerospace use. TAG Heuer Caliber 36 movement is suspended in the case through four shock absorbers. This innovative design gives Monaco 24 with an incredible resilience to shocks. Monaco 24 will survive even if rising from 20-feet tall. It is designed so robust that it can even "eat" the impact of 24, 000 g. The technique of the beauty of this movement is visible through the sapphire crystal dial and case. The front glass is sapphire anti-reflective on both sides to maximize readability.

Monaco 24 has a size "24" to 12, the most notable difference from previous models of Monaco. The dial sports blue and orange bands, which remind me of the ambassador of TAG Heuer Steve McQueen, who has the same colors in his classic 1970 film, Le Mans. Two sub-meters are located at 3 and 9 hours with a strong sporting feel inspired by racing cars. Obviously, the dial takes a little 3-dimensional design elements. The hands, especially, seems to hover over the dial and take care of all time in passing.

The new Monaco watch is presented on a leather strap blue alligator with orange seams. It is water resistant to 100 meters. The Monaco 24, as a concept of luxury watches, is probably very expensive and difficult to achieve for most people living on the planet.
