Review of the TAG Heuer Monaco Calibre 12 Chronograph Final Version Replica

Review of the TAG Heuer Monaco Calibre 12 Chronograph Final Version Replica


This is TAG Heuer Monaco Calibre 12 Chronograph final version watch replica CAW211J.FC6476 and when we talk about the Calibre 12 in terms of modern watches, we are not referring to the movement released shortly after the Calibre 11 in the early 1970s. In its place, the Calibre 12 beating beneath the smoked ruthenium-finished dial of this watch is the Sellita, with the Dubois-Depraz chronograph module.


The History

If you know the history of Heuer and TAG Heuer, then the grey Monaco dial is not new to you. Think of the Reference 1133B, an early 1970s model of the Calibre 11. It has a brushed gray dial with black sub-counters. More recently, there is a reference model CAW211B replica, a 2010 watch that is based on the blue Steve McQueen and the modern caliber 11 movement. Here is the same lightly brushed gray dial (although less pronounced) and black sub-counter. Well, mix all these elements and here you get the new Monaco Calibre 12 Final Edition replica.

The Dial & Case

The dial of this new limited edition is ruthenium coloured (a rare metal belonging to the platinum group, with a dark grey colour) and has the signature vertically brushed decoration. Also, the sub-dials have the traditional black opaline finish. The hands and radial applied indexes are rhodium-plated and the chronograph hand is lacquered in red – all of these details relatively faithful to the vintage 1133B and resulting in a pleasant design.


For the rest, no dramatic evolutions on this replica TAG Heuer Monaco Final Edition, which retains all the specifications of previous editions, meaning a 39mm x 39mm steel case, chamfered sapphire, 100m water-resistance, pushers and crown at 3 o’clock, Calibre 12 running inside – basically, a Sellita-produced 2894-2 – and a black alligator strap with folding clasp.

The Movement

On the other side of the coin, as TAG Heuer moves to establish the Calibre Heuer 02 in the Monaco line the marque also moves to retire the Calibre 12 movement. The Sellita SW300-1 based movement has been a staple of the Monaco lineup since 2009, but as the brand looks to consolidate its premier model lines with manufacture movements, it’s announced the Monaco Calibre 12 Final Edition replica as a sendoff for this venerable powerplant. Like the Monaco Heuer 02, the Calibre 12 Final Edition replica is largely similar to most right-hand-crown Monaco models, apart from the dial. Here, TAG Heuer has opted for a refined, masculine black-on-gray colorway with plenty of luxe details.
