Tag Heuer You need to know ten tips
And deep in the field of sports
Heuer was founded by Edouard Heuer in the Swiss Jura Valley in 1860. TAG Heuer has made a number of remarkable achievements in the field of high-end watchmaking, of which the renowned chronograph and the ultimate precision of the product reputation. In addition, TAG Heuer made a series of technological breakthroughs in the 1880s to become a timing expert on sports events. In the 1920s, the watches manufactured by TAG Heuer were used in Olympic Games hosted by Antwerp, Paris and Amsterdam. In 1933, the brand introduced the Autavia series, and for the first time applied it to racing dash stopwatches. TAG Heuer has not diminished the level of precision in sports and racing.
In 1985, TAG Heuer was acquired by Tiger Group; TAG is an acronym for Techniques d'Avant Garde. Tiger Group will Tiger and Tag Heuer merger, we are familiar with today's Tag Heuer was born. Since 1999, LVMH belongs to LVMH, the world's largest luxury goods group.
Simplify the timepiece
In the past, movement designers pursued the movement with the fewest parts to make them more reliable and easier to meet customer needs. 1887, Edward TAG Heuer developed the Caliber 1887 chronograph movement is the highest respect for the TAG Heuer original pendulum gear in 1887, greatly simplifying the watch design is a major milestone in the field of modern watchmaking .
Inside the clock, the gears support the operation of the entire timepiece or stopwatch, while the mechanisms and timing gear train drive them. The Tiggo's oscillating gears replace complex systems and simplify the operation of the device, making it easier to assemble, adjust and user experience while keeping timing accurate. At the same time this invention also reduces the cost of watch making, can be described as feat.
Forever pursuit of faster
1916 Another achievement Tiger TAG Heuer reached was the arrival of the MIKROGRAPH stopwatch, the world's first mechanical stopwatch with a precision of 1/100 second. The stopwatch movement operates at 360,000 vph, ten times more than the 36,000, which is generally considered to be fast. The advent of the MIKROGRAPH stopwatch set off a revolution in the timing of sports events and the clocks and watches industry and was set as the official watch for the 1920 Olympics.
The first Swiss watch to board space
Lift up the watch on space, you probably think of the watch is not Tag Heuer. Then you should remember, Tiger Regal is actually the first Swiss table to board space.
In May 1961, President Kennedy proclaimed the ambitious goal of a successful lunar landing and return to the ground within a decade. And the first step toward that goal is to put astronauts on track. The pilot completing the mission, John Gruen, performed the task of "Friendship 7," which planned to fly to Mercury on February 20, 1962. When Grenhnurf flew three turns around, wearing a TAGOVAL 2915A stopwatch outside of the spacesuit, it was secured with elastics. This watch, as a backup timer, has played its part in the universe. Today, it is housed in the National Air and Space Museum in Washington.
Carrera series
The most representative series of the TAG Heuer series of non-Carrera (The Carrera), which is closely linked with the racing. After Jack Hoya inherited the company from his uncle, it was proposed to make the series a little more concise. The name comes from Carrera Panamericana Carrera Panamericana, a well-known racing world held between 1950 and 1954.
Jack Heuer wanted to design a watch for racing drivers. This watch must be legible enough to withstand the tremendous vibrations the driver is subjected to while driving. The results can be imagined, that is, today still remain unshakable position Carrara series.
Timed racing
Self-winding watch is very sought-after when it comes out, but the manual winding table was beaten cold palace. Recognizing the potential for self-winding watches, the three companies and groups started to develop their self-winding movement and wondered if their competitors were working on the development. So a contest quietly unveiled, and only the first to grasp the market that can seize the initiative.
The three contestants were Seiko, Zenith, and TAG Heuer, Breitling and Baoling team. The team successfully developed the target movement and planned to announce their work at the Basel watch show in March 1969, beginning with preparations for multiple simulations that may take place at the same time. However, in January 1969 Zenith released their El Primero movement, but TAG Heuer and his teammates are still scheduled to be released in March as planned. At the exhibition, they successfully planned several clocks and other products and processes that were in operation. At the same time, Zenith only a handful of samples. (Though El Primero movement is actually more complicated when it comes to truth)
TAG Heuer said its Caliber 11 movement is the first automatic winding watch movement.
Drive the track
There are few watches can be closely linked with the racing, and Heuer MONACO (Monaco series) is the most famous one. Since Steve McQueen had worn it in the 1971 film Le Mans, the Monaco collection has gained popularity in the racing world. To perfect the role of driver Michael Delaney, McQueen borrowed from his racing friend Jo Siffert. In the movie, McQueen wears a uniform with the "TAG Heuer" logo printed on it. While choosing a watch for the character, McQueen chose the Monaco series, which opened the way for TAG Heuer in the field of racing. McQueen in the play wearing the Monaco series 1133 is also known as "Macquarie Monaco table."
Jack returns
Jack TAG Heuer inherited the TAG Heuer brand since 1962, has been leading the brand until 1985 by the Tiger Group acquisition, after which he joined the electronics industry. While managing the brand, Jack's management team thrives on brand management. Jack also oversees the development and branding of the Calera series and Caliber 11. During his tenure, Steve McQueen made the TAG Heuer a success by making films; from 1971 to 1979, TAG Heuer was named the Official Chronograph of the Formula One race. (The TAG Heuer logo is still very much in demand in recent years about James Hunt and Nicky Lauda's Rush movie.)
In 2001, Jack Hoya returned to the company that used to have his family's last name as honorary chairman. After he came back, the development of Tiger Regal once again peaked. Below we will further introduce you to his achievements.
Jake Hoya announces his retirement on November 8, 2013 - on his 81st birthday. When asked why he had chosen this day, he replied that he had vowed not to work after 80 years of age. He is a beloved gentleman, it is a legend in the watchmaking industry.
Monaco V4
Monaco series has been very prestigious, but the 2004 Basel watch show Monaco V4 release, in turn the brand's achievements to a new peak. Group CEO Jean-Christophe Babin announced the launch of the V4 watch at the same time, saying that the TAG Heuer will reach a new peak, committed to the development of cutting-edge cutting-edge mechanical movement.
The advent of V4 is not easy. Brands spent years trying to make their designs more perfect, and they eventually did it. At the Only Watch charity auction in Monaco in 2009, Tiger possessed the first Monaco V4 watch. Since then, they have sold several limited edition products.
The design of the Monaco V4 is complex and difficult to complete, mainly because the design of its movement has broken the traditional design of the watchmaking industry. Instead of using traditional gear sets and gears, the V4's drive is belt-driven - a design inspired by a car engine that has never been optimistic. However, with the help of the designer Guy Sémon, Tigera proved itself.
Speed
Once the movement speed up to 36000vph - that can measure one tenth of a second, is considered to have a very fast speed. But after engineers, pilots and physicist Guy Sémon joined Tiger Regal, the world was about to be overthrown. After successfully challenging Monaco V4, he also developed the Mikrograph chronograph (movement speed 360,000vph, measurable hundredths of a second), Mikrotimer (movement speed 3600000vph, measurable thousandths of a second), and Mikrogirder (Movement speed 7200000vph, can measure one thousandth of a second).
Sémon designed the movement to achieve these limits, he designed the "dual movement components" contributed. It includes a 4 Hertz watch balance wheel and a balanceless hammock stopwatch, the two balance wheels moving at different rates. The slower one is responsible for the timing, the faster that control timing. And the Mikrogirder went one step further by not using a traditional escapement, but three small, faster-oscillating cascades that would have been considered impossible in the past. To say how fast it is, the center seconds hand revolves around the dial 20 times per second, and the naked eye is hardly visible during exercise. Sémon's design, the opening of a new chapter chronograph.
