Even if you’ve stored those Las Vegas memories in internal encrypted files, the newest TAG Heuer Monaco allows you to live the Vegas lifestyle every day.
Even those who have never been to Las Vegas, America’s modern city of sin, know its reputation and famed tagline: “What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas”. While we have Macau on our doorstep, and there are other gambling centres and entertainment hotspots around the world, none have the rags-to-riches, solid gold digger glamour of Vegas, a city that’s inspired more than its fair share of books, movies and excuses. And now its own watch.

Dedicated to a place where excitement and playfulness reign, and where the pulse of life beats to a rhythm of excitement and adventure. Swiss watchmaker TAG Heuer has created the suitably neon pink iteration of its iconic Monaco Chronograph.
Introduced in 1969, the TAG Heuer Monaco quickly became one of the most symbolic watches in history and one that the watchmaker has enjoyed creating alternative rifts on over the years. The newest fuses a playful and modern aesthetic with the collection’s rich heritage thanks to its vibrant pink skeleton dial, which reflects the lively ambience of Las Vegas and its iconic city lights.

At the heart of the new Monaco beats the in-house automatic Calibre Heuer 02, manufactured to ensure utmost precision and reliability and visible through the skeletonized dial, allowing enthusiasts to admire the intricate workings of the watch. Maintaining the popping colours of the dial, the column wheel at 12 o’clock and the oscillating weight, visible through the sapphire caseback, are also accented in striking pink, enhancing the technical allure while preserving modern and sporty aesthetics.
The lightweight titanium case, finished with a sleek black DLC coating, is contrasted by more bold pink accents on the 3 and 9 o’clock counters and hands, as well as on the chronograph seconds hand, while the indexes, prominently displayed on the dial, follow the lines of the skeletonised architecture for a strikingly vibrant look.
