TAG Heuer Monaco watch Tribute to Steve McQueen 40th Anniversary 0948/1000

The short story

In 2019, we celebrated the 50th anniversary of the emblematic Tag Heuer Monaco. In 2009, on the occasion of the 40th anniversary of this icon, Tag Heuer manufactured a series of 1000 watches which is probably the most faithful modern model to the Monaco of 1969. It is more and more difficult to find Monaco Calibre 11 lately, so we are very happy to present you the anniversary model number 0948/1000 in perfect condition. Fifty years ago Heuer made its mark by launching the Monaco, which became the first square, water-resistant automatic chronograph! The release of the film "Le Mans" in 1971 propelled Monaco to the forefront of the international scene.

What you need to know

This collector's watch bears the number 0948/1000 and Jack Heuer's signature is affixed just above the words "In tribute to Steve McQueen 40th anniversary - limited edition". This model is in an exceptional state of preservation as it has been worn very little and no parts have been altered. Its automatic movement is none other than the modern Calibre 11, which has largely proved its worth. It has been serviced by our watchmakers and as such benefits from a one-year guarantee.

The package

The watch will be delivered to you in a Steve McQueen Tag Heuer case which is not the original case. All parts of this watch are original, including the leather strap. It has been authenticated and serviced by our certified watchmaker and as such benefits from the Lepage Vintage 1 year warranty.
