The Heuer Monaco is a line of chronograph wristwatches originally introduced by Heuer in 1969, in honour of the Monaco Grand Prix. The pioneering of the Monaco was revolutionary for being the first automatic and square case on a chronograph. American film star Steve McQueen used the Heuer Monaco in the movie “Le Mans”. This Monaco was an automatic Calibre 11 with the blue dial and red accents, reference 1133B. Funny thing on this model is that the crown is at the left side, while the pushers are at the right side. It's been decades since McQueen's death but the Heuer Monaco is still synonymous with him and the watch adopted the nickname: “the Steve McQueen”. (although he did own multiple other cool watches) The Monaco was discontinued in the 1970's however it was reissued with a new design in 1998 and introduced yet again due to its popularity with an entirely new movement in 2003.
