Tudor Heritage Chronograph Monte-Carlo 70330B

Originally launched in the early 1970s, the Tudor Monte Carlo has developed as one of Tudor's most recognisable models thanks to its unique aesthetic and similarities to its sibling, the Rolex Daytona. Built from Rolex parts, the Monte Carlo has always been an incredibly robust timepiece. With a trip-lock Rolex crown, substantial squared-off crown guards, screw-down pushers and stainless steel bezel, the Monte Carlo could easily withstand daily wear and tear much unlike the fragile chronographs from its period – spurring its popularity within Tudor’s catalog. However, while it is built with Rolex parts, the Monte-Carlo’s dial is what set it apart from Tudor’s big brother brand. Named the “Monte-Carlo” due to its visual similarities to a roulette wheel, the Monte Carlo's dial injects personality and colour into the timepiece with precision and accuracy. A calculated aesthetic, the Monte Carlo's dial uses colour in a useful fashion while also providing a unique character to the timepiece overall. On the back of the popularity of the vintage original, Tudor launced the Monte-Carlo Re-Edition within the Heritage collection in 2013 soon after the brand was revived. Boasting Tudor’s modern build quality, the Monte-Carlo’s stunning and unique blue, white and orange bi-compax dial, the ref. 70330B has become a staple of Tudor’s more modern line-up that has fit perfectly within their identity as a watchmaker with vintage inspiration and impeccable build quality. THE DIAL A faithful re-interpretation of the original, this Monte-Carlo ref. 70330B combines blue, white, and orange in the same arrangement as the original Monte-Carlo in what is a unique and easy-on-the-eye blend of colors. THE CONSTRUCTION Featuring Tudor's robust build quality, the Monte-Carlo is a modern chronograph that combines vintage Tudor's aesthetic with modern Tudor's impeccable craftsmanship.
