McQueen’s Heuer Monaco from Le Mans set for auction
Steve McQueen’s preference for the Heuer Monaco over the Omega Speedmaster during the iconic film “Le Mans” has solidified the watch’s status in horology and motorsport. Originally, the Omega was slated for the film; however, McQueen chose the Monaco in homage to his friend and fellow racer Jo Siffert. The Heuer Monaco, a pioneer in non-automotive sponsorship in Formula One, is set to come under the hammer at Sotheby’s New York on June 15, with estimates reaching between $500,000 and $1 million. This sale comes amid a growing trend in celebrity watch values, showcasing the Monaco’s enduring appeal and cultural significance.
