1978: The ‘Dark Lord’ rises

Season 3: The TAG Heuer Monaco | Turn the clocks back to 1974. The Monaco wasn’t performing very well commercially. In fact, it disappeared from the catalog entirely. But then in 1978, a black-coated Monaco reference came to light, becoming a collector’s favorite and one of the rarest Monaco watches ever. This is the story of Reference 74033 N, or as collectors like to call it, the ‘Dark Lord’.
