TAG Heuer

Since then, TAG Heuer is the world leader in prestigious and high-precision chronographs. It is the only Swiss watchmaking company using its own mechanical chronograph movements to master 1/10th, 1/100th, 1/1,000th and 5/10,000ths of a second.

One of the most innovative Swiss watchmakers ever, Jack has filed many major patents as well as introducing breakthrough innovations such as the first-ever self-winding mechanical chronograph, the legendary Monaco Chronomatic 11, in 1969. Today, our watchmakers and engineers stay true to Jack's passion for innovation by constantly challenging conventional wisdom and taking the Brand to unsurpassed levels of precision.
