40 mm. Diameter
With its Oyster case, signature grey dial with metallic blue subsidiary dials and eye-catching orange accents, the Tudor Monte Carlo chronograph is by all means a true icon from the 1970s.
During the time when Rolex was only manufacturing 36-mm. Daytona watches, Tudor was pushing the envelope by creating chronographs fitted in 40-mm. cases. An avant-gardist design, the striking grey dial, blue registers and rotating bezel, and the orange accents form a whimsical caprice of retro colors which exude an unmissable aura of 1970s flair. As a matter of fact, this design was so iconic that it served as the inspiration for the brand’s highly popular relaunch called the Tudor Heritage Chrono Blue. Powered by a manual caliber 234, the Monte Carlo replaces the Daytona’s subsidiary hour counter for a date aperture, and also comprises screw down chronograph pushers.
Featuring a Rolex crown and case back, a distinctive characteristic of vintage Tudor watches, the Monte Carlo is an amazing asset for every watch collector on its own merits.
