The Monza is one of my favourite re-editions, and I have owned the black "Heuer" Monza watch since it was released in 2000. Interestingly, TAG Heuer CEO Jean-Christophe Babin told me in Basel that the Monza had always been a success with customers, but was a victim of the decision to reduce the number of mainstream TAG Heuer lines. In the end, it was either going to be the Monaco or the Monza that was dis-continued, and as much as I love the Monza, the right call was clearly made.
While loved by buyers, I do think that the Monza has suffered in the eyes of collectors because of its name. Looking back, it would have been easier to use a different name that hadn”t been used before,- almost without exception, the first thing that Heuer collectors will say about the watch is that it”s not a "real" re-edition of the Monza…that name "belonging" to the PVD Monza of the 1970s.
Despite this, the Monza is a beautiful series, and one that can be had today for good money: get in before people realise that you can buy a mint-condition Heuer Monza from 2000 for a fraction of the price that today”s Calibre 36 version commands.
