Icons are supposed to be divisive. Designs well-received across the board upon release may well be popular in the short term, but rarely do they generate the kind of emotional response necessary for an enduring legacy to be established. The Heuer Monaco broke boundaries when it was released 50 years ago in 1969. Nowadays, its significance to TAG Heuer (and the industry in general) is perhaps overlooked for its ubiquity.
