IMHO, your Cinelli "Monza" is actually an SC. The "Monza decals were added to the bike sometime after it was produced. The decals are in a slightly different font with lighter blue background (compared to the black - or extremely dark blue background of the "Cinelli" decal"). Everything else about your bike, including the "Mod. S.C." decal is the same as an S.C.

I saw a Cinelli one time that had this same treatment but instead of "Monza" it had the word "Corsa". If you look at it, the placement of "Cinelli" on the downtube is right where it should be if it didn't have "Monza". If both were applied at the same time it would seem to make graphic sense to slide them down farther, hence at clue that it was added.

Nice bike. If it were mine, "Monza" would be outa there faster 'n you can say fingernail.
