Design of The TAG Heuer Monaco Steve Mcqueen Watch

If you want to ask the same question about the TAG Heuer Monaco, few positive words come to my mind like: a cheerful, iconic, distinctive, timeless or simply – cool! Thanks to its colour and shape of the case it can’t be confused with any other timepiece out there. I’ve been using it for some time and still love it.  Best TAG Heuer Monaco Steve Mcqueen clone watches online, buy replica watches at firstwatchclone.co.

The steel case is almost entirely brushed. The only polished parts are beveling of the edges, most of the lugs, crown and chronograph buttons side part. The dial – shimmering in different shades of blue – is very consistent despite numerous indications, legible and has the unique old-school appearance. You’ll find on it two square subdials (with rounded corners): one is a small second (at 3 o’clock) and the other is 30-minute counter (at 9 o’clock). In both cases they have bloody-red-coloured small hands. The other two – hour and minute hands – are steel and filled with luminova. The glowing material can also be found around hour indices. Unfortunately the luminescence is not the strongest point of the watch – it barely gives light visible in the dark, and it glows for only quite short period of time. The advantage for this on the other hand is that the white dots of light-emitting substance on the dial look good during the day.

The inscription MONACO with TAG Heuer logo is located at 12 o’clock. The date window appears on the opposite side, realized as a white disk with black numbers. Unfortunately this is one of the weakest point of the watch. It often happens that during the date change the correct number jumps straight into the middle of the window.

On the other side you’ll find a steel (screwed with four screws) caseback with circular sapphire glass window. This allows to see how aforementioned Calibre 12 works. This movement certainly is not the top-class calibre, but decorations are pretty decent – for example: grained baseplate and oscillating weight with cut-out elements decorated with Geneva stripes.

The replica TAG Heuer Monaco Calibre 12 steve mcqueen watch has blue alligator leather strap with a steel butterfly clasp with secure-buttons. And here we come to the next weak link. It often happens that when you try to snap the clasp, it bounces back – to the extent that sometimes only the fifth attempt succeeds. Fortunately, once well-fastened, the watch never did open by itself. Signed with a TAG Heuer logo, clasp has its unquestionable plus – allows you to change the length of the strap very quickly and easily.
