TAG Heuer - Monaco Gulf Special Edition 2022

TAG Heuer presented the new Monaco Gulf. The TAG Heuer Monaco Gulf Special Edition CBL2115.FC6494 has a retail price of €6,700.

First showcased on occasion of the Watches and Wonders event (Geneva, March 30 - April 5, 2022), the Monaco Gulf Special Edition was also the Official Watch of this year’s Monaco Historic Grand Prix (May 13-15, 2022) of which TAG Heuer was the Official Sponsor.

Co created with the Gulf brand, the new Monaco Gulf Special Edition continues to be based on the three iconic colors of Gulf but this time in a more contemporary color combination: the special dark blue, turquoise, and orange.

The Gulf accents have also been featured in an elegant way and for the first time, the three colors are present on the minute sub-counters at 3 o’clock, too. A premiere in the Monaco Gulf watch editions, the Gulf logo on the dial is totally white. 

The 39 mm x 39 mm stainless-steel case of this model alternates fine-brushed and polished surfaces with a beveled and slightly domed sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating. It offers water resistance to 100 metres / 330 feet.

On the back, the transparent sapphire glass displays the in-house self-winding movement Heuer 02 - another premiere for the Monaco Gulf collection - that beats at a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour (4 Hz) with a remarkable power reserve of 80 hours. With a total of 168 individual components, this movement includes a column wheel and a vertical clutch.

The oscillating mass and column wheel are decorated with a special engraving colored to match the Gulf orange pantone. 

The sporty look of the watch is completed by a strap made with of perforated blue calfskin leather and an orange lining.

Delivered with a new packaging featuring a box and a special travel pouch, also using the refreshed Gulf colors, the new TAG Heuer Monaco Gulf Special Edition ref. CBL2115.FC6494 has a suggested retail price of Euro 6,700. tagheuer.com
