TAG Heuer & Gulf Oil International:
A full-colour partnership!
Today the two iconic brands in the automotive world make their union official. A firm link between the past and the present will be established.
For the occasion, TAG Heuer is presenting a special Gulf edition of the Monaco, in the famous racing colours and logo of the oil company that sponsored Steve McQueen in the film "Le Mans".
Heuer, Gulf, Monaco, Steve McQueen, Le Mans: A partnership that has the automotive heritage of TAG Heuer at its core, and the best is yet to come!
Switzerland, La Chaux-de-Fonds, 7th March 2018: Today, TAG Heuer is very proud to announce that a global partnership has been signed with Gulf Oil International, which will see the development of new activities and new editions, including the Monaco Gulf which was presented on the occasion of the signing.

As a matter of fact, the watch shared the spotlight with Steve McQueen, who insisted on wearing it throughout filming of the film "Le Mans" in 1971 when he drove the famous Gulf-Porsche 917K.
Of course, the colours of this iconic brand are referenced in the design of the Monaco Calibre 11 Gulf special edition.

A beautiful interpretation that respects the iconic automotive heritage of the Manufacture based in La-Chaux-de-Fonds and which will feature in the dreams of all automotive racing purists.
