The Story Of Tag Heuer
Friday, July 31st, 2009Synonymous with elegance, luxury and design, a Tag Heuer watch makes a welcome addition to anyone's accessory collection. Established back in 1860, under the name Heuer, the company has continued to adorn the wrists of the rich and famous for many years.
The brand's ties to the sporting world are clear. This is no better indicated than by taking a glance through their signature lines; Aquaracer, Carrera, Formula One, Grand Carrera, Link and Monaco. Such a relationship is further underscored by close ties with sporting heroes such as Tiger Woods and Lewis Hamilton.
Whatever model of Tag Heuer watch is purchased though; from the eighteen thousand dollar Tag Heuer Monaco 360 LS concept, right down to the more affordable 1500 series, you can be assured of precise engineering.
No matter the cost, you are always assured of only the best in Swiss design and precision timing. Most ranges benefit from the use of sapphire crystal displays and quartz movement, whilst most are water resistant too.
Such an exacting approach to watch design has been the standard by which Tag have set their own high standards. More than this though, they have been pioneers in the industry and continue to do so today.
To underline their ongoing commitment, recent products have continued to surprise. Take the Carrera Calibre for example; which has become the world's only mechanical timepiece to record time to one one-hundredth of a second!
When you buy a Tag Heuer watch, you are buying the very epitome of Swiss design, engineering and history. You are also of course entering an exclusive club that has not only motor racing stars amongst its members, but even the current US President.
