TAG Heuer professional watch: TAG Heuer is a Swiss watchmaker company, well known for its chronographs and mid-high range sports watches. This company is a division of the leading luxury goods company LVMH. Edward Heuer first founded a watch making company in 1860. He was immensely dedicated to precision and he founded the company with the sole purpose of advancing the measurement of time. Edward Heuer patented the first crown-winding mechanism for pocket watches in 1869. Heuer won a silver medal for the pocket chronograph collection in 1889. In 1911, the company received a patent for the first dashboard chronograph, “Time of Trip”. In 1914, Edward Heuer introduced the first wrist chronograph, which was adapted from the pocket chronograph. In the 1950s, Heuer produced watches for Abercrombie & Fitch, an American retailer. Abercrombie & Fitch sold a unique chronograph with a special dial that showed the low tide and high tide. It could also be used to track the different phases of the moon. Heuer introduced a version of this chronograph in the late 1960s, which was known as “Mareographe”. Heuer watches were popular among professional and amateur automobile racers during the period from the 1950s to the 1970s. In 1962, the Autavia chronograph was introduced. Previously, this name was used on the company’s dashboard timers. Jack Heuer designed the Carrera chronograph, which was introduced in 1963. Due to its clean lines, this chronograph became a design icon. Several Heuer chronographs, during this period, used movements manufactured by Valijoux. In 1969, Heuer had a partnership with Breitling and Hamilton, and they introduced the first automatic chronograph. The Cal 11 and Cal 12 movements powered these chronographs. Heuer introduced a series of chronographs, powered by the Lemania 5100 movement, in the 1980s. Tag Heur was formed in 1985, when TAG (Techniques d’Avant Garde), manufacturers of high-tech items, acquired Heuer. The product line was modernized and the company became one of the biggest names in Swiss watches. Today, TAG Heuer makes several kinds of watches like the professional golf watches. You can find more information on the variety of professional Tag Huer watches on the Internet.
