You can identify this model by its lack of small seconds dial.

Heuer soon went on to release a version of the Monza with the Calibre 12. Like the other movements in this family of calibers, its crown is located on the left-hand side. It has a small seconds dial at 10, a date at 6, and a minute counter at 3 o'clock. This movement is a pared down version of the Calibre 11 and Calibre 12 developed by Heuer, Breitling, Büren, and Dubois Dépraz. Depending on the model, the case also had a black PVD or chrome coating. Early Monzas have the same oval case shape as the Carrera, but in brass instead of stainless steel. The Monza of the 1970s and 80s represented an affordable alternative to the Carrera. The proven Calibre 17, based on the ETA 2894-2, powers this timepiece. The most recent model combines a black-coated titanium case in the shape of the Re-Edition with the black dial design of the original Monza, including the red chronograph seconds hand and dual tachymeter-pulsometer scale around the dial's edge. TAG Heuer also released the first three-hand Monza with a gold case at this time. One of the movements used in this so-called 'Re-Edition' is the Calibre 36, which is based on the famous Zenith El Primero. The early 2000s saw the Monza make its comeback, this time with a new case and calibers. It quickly found many fans in the watch community and is now a coveted collector's item. Its black, PVD-coated case helped this model stand out from its bigger sister, the Carrera.

The Swiss watch manufacturer Heuer – later renamed TAG Heuer – introduced the Formula 1 legend Niki Lauda won his first World Championship in 1975.
