About TAG Heuer
Let's take a brief look at the brand and its history.TAG Heuer watches are a classic brand, balancing quality and reliability with style. Edouard Heuer opened his first workshop in Switzerland in 1860. His ambitions were quite simple and that was to aim for excellence and performance. Heuer and his company continually pushed back the boundaries of watch technology and were at the forefront of many innovative developments that we find in watches today.
The watches are stylish, but are better known for their accuracy. The precision of TAG Heuer watches is part of the brand heritage. As early as 1916, TAH Heuer released a stop watch that was accurate to 1/100th of a second.
Over the years the brand has become closely allied with the world of sports. The precision of the time keeping of the watches combined with practical understated styling has resulted in the brand being popular with athletes and athletic sponsors. For many years TAG Heuer has been closely allied with the glamorous world of motor racing, and has a long relationship with the McLaren team.
Buying a TAG Heuer Watch
TAG Heuer watches are an investment and should last for many years to come. There are a wide range of watches in the TAG Heuer collection. The brand flag ship watch is the distinctive stainless steel strap and face, however the brand has extended and innovated that basic look and now includes a pink face women’s watch and a chronometer man’s watch. At the very pinnacle of the range is a watch that is set with diamonds and the time shines through 54 of these diamonds. However, as only three of these watches were made the chances of buying one are extremely remote!
The watches are high quality and well made, however to maintain the reliability of the watch they must be returned to TAG Heuer for regular servicing and for the replacing of batteries. This should be born in mind when choosing a TAG Heuer watch as this is a cost that will arise throughout the lifetime of the watch.
