Equipped with a split-seconds chronograph movement, the new Monaco celebrates Tag Heuer’s Formula 1 legacy

Now that it is back as the Official Timekeeper of Formula 1—a sport where every millisecond counts—its drive for innovation is reignited. This fantastic new Monaco, endowed with a split-seconds chronograph, is testament to its uncanny ability to reimagine an icon in a bold, new light.
The Monaco Split-Seconds Chronograph | F1 embodies the high-adrenaline spirit of Formula 1 with a sleek new design, including a white ceramic case contrasting against striking red accents.

Limited to 10 pieces, each ceramic case is meticulously machined and hand-finished to ensure every angle, curve, and surface are perfect. Sapphire crystal lends it unprecedented transparency, from the red-tinted dial to the caseback that offers an unobstructed view of Calibre TH81-00 with a rotor in the Tag Heuer shield shape. Following in the tradition of its past split-seconds breakthroughs, including the 11.402 stopwatch for Scuderia Ferrari and the quartz chronographs from the 1990s, Calibre TH81-00 is one of Tag Heuer’s most advanced chronograph movements as well as one of its lightest.

The chronograph counters are designed to evoke the race track, complete with white and yellow starting grid positions and official F1 typography. Another reference to Formula 1 is the phrase below these counters: “Lights out & away we go”, famously coined by British commentator David Croft.
The watch comes with a white calfskin strap with textile embossing and red hand-stitching.
