Ron Gordon Watch Repair Analyzes the Newly Redesigned TAG Heuer Monaco Chronograph

Ron Gordon Watch Repair, a New York-based watch service specialist, has published a new analysis of the redesigned TAG Heuer Monaco Chronograph. The post, titled "The Square Rebel Returns: TAG Heuer Reinvents the Monaco Chronograph," examines how the iconic square watch has been modernized while retaining its distinctive character.

Ron Gordon, owner and head watchmaker, notes that the luxury watch market is dominated by round timepieces, making the Monaco's square case a standout. "There are many types of luxury watches," Gordon said. "For instance, there are dive watches, dress watches, pilot watches, and racing watches. The funny thing is that no matter how different these watches may appear, they share one common trait: roundness. The TAG Heuer Monaco, however, became unique by its squareness."

The new Monaco features a refined 39mm Grade 5 titanium case, which Gordon says dramatically improves wearability by reducing weight while preserving the watch's bold presence. The post also covers the redesigned case geometry, updated dial architecture, and the continued use of the left-side crown, a signature of the Monaco.

Gordon gives particular attention to the new in-house Calibre TH20-11 movement, which boasts an 80-hour power reserve and a column-wheel chronograph construction. This represents a significant technical advancement for the Monaco collection.

The article serves as a reminder of the importance of regular watch maintenance. Gordon stresses that mechanical watches require periodic service to maintain performance and value. "Movements wear out. Gaskets age. Lubricants dry out," he explained. "People often forget that watches – like cars and other mechanical devices – need service."
