Top 5 TAG Heuer watches: the most elegant sport

Wrist Watch

The Swiss company, founded more than 160 years ago, is not inferior to the leadership in the production of sports watches, combining technical excellence and thoughtful design. Heuer received its first patent in 1887 (27 years after the 20-year-old Edouard Hoer founded a workshop in Saint-Imier), which was an oscillating gear still in use today. And in 1916, their Micrograph could already measure time with an accuracy of 1/100 of a second.

Since the merger with TAG in 1985, the company has continued its triumphal march, including on racetracks, being a long-term sponsor of Formula 1 races, and magazine pages - famous racers and show business stars such as Ayrton Senna, Cristiano Ronaldo represented the brand , Steve McQueen and Leonardo DiCaprio.

There are five models in today's top - three for men and two for women - continuing the iconic collections of the brand.

Tag Heuer Aquaracer

TAG Heuer watches are the very ones that are appropriate not only with sports equipment, but also perfectly suited to a business suit. TAG Heuer Aquaracer WAY101A.BA0746 is a vivid confirmation of this. The large steel hull is ready to conquer the depths of the seas or withstand high humidity on land. During the water resistance test, all watches undergo more than 160 tests - in addition to being under water, these are exposure to heat and salt fog, autoclaving and other tests.

In Aquaracer you can safely dive - the watch will remain intact. At the same time, a black aluminum bezel and a black opal dial just ask for a black tie set for the evening. Well, in order to clearly see the time in the dark or under water, a bright white phosphor is applied to the faceted indexes and hands.

Tag Heuer Carrera

Women's Swiss watch TAG Heuer Carrera WAR1113.FC6392

The first Carerra chronograph was released in 1963, setting the standard for quality and functionality in professional pilots' wristwatches for a long time to come. Designed by Jack Hoer, the model was named after the difficult and dangerous race Carrera Panamericana Mexico.

Today in our top is a special version of the women's watch TAG Heuer Carrera WAR1113.FC6392, created in collaboration with top model and actress Cara Delevingne. Yes, yes, the same Laureline from Luc Besson's Valerian and the Enchantress from Suicide Squad. The watch is based on the 39mm base model but is packaged in a black titanium carbide case. The spacious dial features rose gold-plated hands and applied markers with black luminescent inserts. The back cover is engraved with a lion's head, this design copies one of Kara's tattoos.

Tag Heuer Formula 1

The Formula 1 collection is named not only after the queen of motor racing and a long-standing partnership, but also after the technologies used in racing and watches. The collection's models don't just look like professional tools, they've been tested on the track.

A watch designed for high speeds has several must-have features: Easy Grip screw-down crown and voluminous bezel with protective stops, luminous hands and markers, steel bracelet with sleeve extension and double locking clasp.

The three-hand watch TAG Heuer Formula 1 WAZ1010.BA0842 attracts attention with the rich blue color of the bezel and dial. Clear large indexes and marks will not confuse the time readings. The watch was made with an eye on professional divers, so the water resistance here is 200 meters, and the bezel with minute marks rotates only in one direction.

Tag Heuer Formula 1 Chronograph

Men's Swiss wrist watch TAG Heuer Formula 1 Chronograph CAZ1014.BA0842 with chronograph

The brightest and sportiest model in today's collection is a great tool for measuring time, the TAG Heuer Formula 1 Chronograph CAZ1014.BA0842. The role of the regulator in the mechanism of this stopwatch is performed by a quartz crystal, which means that you do not have to worry about the accuracy of the results. The small counters on the dial are marked with guilloche in the form of circles; only the orange central second hand and minute markers of the same color contrast with it. A tachymeter scale is drawn along the blue aluminum strip of the bezel, and therefore the bezel itself is stationary, unlike the previous model.

TAG Heuer Link

Women's Swiss watch TAG Heuer Link WBC1310.BA0600

Many of TAG Heuer's categories fit the epithet "legendary", but you can't find anything else to match the bracelet of the Link Collection watches. Created back in 1986 by designer Eddie Schepfer, Link has been out for four generations. Women's watch TAG Heuer Link WBC1310.BA0600 is just from the latest.

The catchy pattern of the bracelet has a technological complexity - each "bird / check mark / Y" consists of two S-shaped links, which provides a special convenience and comfort when worn. The elegant simplicity of the model is based on the combination of sport and femininity. As a design extravagant, there is only a mother-of-pearl dial, otherwise beauty is achieved by a combination of metal polishing techniques and the impeccable shape of all details.
