Video – Patrick Dempsey on Watches, the TAG Heuer Monaco and the man who did it all, Jack Heuer

During the F1 Grand Prix in Monaco, last weekend, we sat down with TAG Heuer’s CEO, and we managed to steal fifteen minutes from actor, race driver and TAG Heuer ambassador Patrick Dempsey. Admittedly, I didn’t know Patrick from anything else but him being ‘an actor who loves racing’. My better half knows him, of course, for playing Dr. Derek Shepherd in the series Grey’s Anatomy. Now I also know him for being a great guy with an intense passion for racing and TAG Heuer watches, and owning a very nice 1972 Heuer Monaco.

Video – Stéphane Bianchi, TAG Heuer’s CEO, on the 50th Anniversary of the Monaco

During the F1 Grand Prix in Monaco, last weekend, we sat down with TAG Heuer’s CEO, Stéphane Bianchi, to talk about the 50th anniversary of an icon, the TAG Heuer Monaco. Let’s all agree that the word ‘iconic’ is so often mis-used in the world of horology, however, in this case I think it’s appropriate to designate the Monaco as ‘iconic’. Stéphane Bianchi tell us more about the Monaco and how TAG Heuer is celebrating the 50th anniversary of this legendary and highly recognizable timepiece.

Buying Guide – 5 of the Coolest Bronze Watches of Baselworld 2019

Bronze watches have developed into a major trend over the past few years. A tough and strong metal, bronze lends itself perfectly to robust watches. Most importantly, it offers something different, a burst of colour that changes over time with the unique patina developing randomly on the surface of the metal. And if you’re bold […]

Introducing – TAG Heuer Carrera Indy 500 Special Edition

The link between TAG Heuer (and previously Heuer) and motor racing doesn’t need to be demonstrated anymore… From the creation of dashboard instruments to the Carrera chronograph, followed by an array of F1 or sports car-inspired watches (most named after famous race tracks), to end up with the brand’s current sponsorship of the Red Bull […]

Introducing – TAG Heuer Carrera Calibre Heuer 02 Aston Martin DBS Superleggera 2019

But today, what we have to show is even cooler, […]

After a few years of technically traditional watches, TAG Heuer is back at work with innovation. Known to have been ultra-active in the field of high-frequency, the focus is however different these days, but TAG means “Techniques d’Avant-Garde” after all. Combining watchmaking with scientific discovery, TAG Heuer introduces a state-of-the-art carbon hairspring in the latest interpretation of the Carrera. Meet the TAG Heuer Carrera Calibre Heuer 02T Tourbillon Nanograph – and again, innovation doesn’t necessarily mean insane prices.

This year, TAG Heuer is celebrating the 55th anniversary of its most iconic watch, the Carrera.
