With its use of the new movement, TAG Heuer designed a clear layout of the displays, but this also involved a compromise. The running seconds indication is now placed at 6 o’clock - a clever solution even though every minute the seconds hand sweeps across the date window for a period of several seconds. Here’s another update: the symmetrical arrangement now shows elapsed minutes and hours rather than minutes and seconds.
The once-flat registers are now slightly recessed, giving the design more depth and interest. The newest version, the TAG Heuer Monaco Calibre Heuer 02, our test watch, offers these same visual features, all of which TAG Heuer has continued to refine based on the earlier Monaco Calibre 12 model. Fans of the Monaco racing watch – introduced in 1969 as one of the world’s first automatic chronographs – love its blue sunburst dial and contrasting silver counters, red hands, and square shape with its expansive sapphire crystal and faceted edges.
