Heuer Monza is a wristwatch by Heuer.

Original model

In the 1930 and 1940 years wristwatches with pillow-shaped cases were quite common, for example from Rolex and Panerai. Even by Heuer there was launched such a model in 1930 a monopusher chronograph with manual winding movement, which already at that time bore the name “Monza” - according to the well-known Italian racetrack.

In the style of the 1970s

In 1975 Heuer launched the wrist chronograph “Monza”, equipped with the well-known self-winding movement Heuer 11 (later version Heuer 15). Especially characteristic was the model completely held in black, with red hands and scales. The watch was dedicated to the racer Niki Lauda in memory of his 3rd place at the Italian Grand Prix at Monza on September 7, 1975. This day brought the team Ferrari a new status as Formula 1 champion. The first model was produced only until 1978.

Re-editions with the original case shape

The distinctive name was resumed in 2001 for a chronograph series in pillow shape, this time driven by the Calibre 36 (basis Zenith El Primero). See

In 2011 a further re-edition, limited to 1911 pieces was launched, this time with white dial and historicizing arabic luminous numerals
