The slab-like design of the sapphire crystal is one of my favourite aspects of any Monaco, and here the reflections in the bevelled side makes a discernible contrast against the soft feel of the matte titanium, with two small colour-pops pulling us into the world of square silver dial architecture. The cushion-esque square case has very short lugs, ensuring a sleek comfort, while the bezel-less dial with its boxed and pronounced crystal will make a strong visual imprint on your wrist-roll shots. And with its cool tones, we have a veritable chameleon that will work just as well with denim as pin-striped wool, the discreet feel on the wrist more than made up by its visual presence. The quiet elegance of the Monaco Titan is matched by it’s reduced weight, imbuing the quite perfect 39 x 39mm case with a new lease of life.

It’s cushion-softened steel ingot evocative of a different age, exuding glamour, petrol fumes and an oil-stained Steve McQueen in racing overalls.
