In the 1971, Le Mans, Steve McQueen's character, Michael Delaney, is seen wearing a Tag Monaco chronograph (replica tag heuer monaco steve mcqueen). Tag Heuer, to this day, has continued to use Steve's image in various marketing campaigns to aid in selling the classic blue-faced model, which holds the claim of "the world's first automatic chronograph". It is important to note that while the on screen McQueen is associated with the brand.
Rolex has its own McQueen "signature" watch, the Explorer II aka "The McQueen Rolex". This watch is highly sought after today due to its rarity and exclusivity (it was discontinued in 1985). The watch, itself, is a very handsome model and comes equipped with the much coveted orange 24 hour hand. Though McQueen did wear his Explorer II off screen his favorite watch was something a little different.
Rolex Submariner was McQueen's go to. This particular Submariner, available exclusively in the UK and produced from 1959 through 1978, was truly Steve's everyday watch.
