TAG Heuer vai anunciar no Facebook tecnologia revolucionária em cronógrafos de alta frequência

Dia 23 de Março, às 17h45 (hora de Lisboa), a TAG Heuer transmite em directo pela sua página no Facebook o anúncio que vai fazer sobre aquilo que considera ser um conceito extraordinário e novo de tecnologia de alta frequência em cronógrafos.

Trata-se do Apollo Project, de que a marca divulgou até agora algumas imagens "teaser".

A conferência de imprensa interactiva, que decorre a partir da Baselword, em Basileia, Suíça, poderá ser vista na página da TAG Heuer no Facebook, mas para isso é preciso tornar-se fã. A página já conta com mais de 170 mil aderentes, o que potencia o evento como o de maior envergadura alguma vez ocorrida no sector.

Facebook fans of the legendary Swiss brand will have a front-row view of what TAG Heuer’s President & CEO Jean-Christophe Babin is calling “TAG Heuer’s most radical, out-of-the-box, totally mind-blowing innovation to date.”

“We’ve had the Apollo Project - a code name - under wraps for months,” said Jean Christophe Babin, who will field questions at the end of the conference from Facebook fans and the BaselWorld journalists in attendance. “It’s our most closely guarded secret ever. Now it’s time to take the lid off. Doing so live online gives us an opportunity for interaction with TAG Heuer watch owners, collectors and enthusiasts everywhere.”

If this year’s commercial launch of the Heuer Carrera Mikrograph 1/100th — the first-ever mechanical chronograph to measure and display 1/100th of a second on a flying central hand — is to watchmaking what walking on the moon is to space history, then the top-secret Apollo Project is the equivalent of the first manned landing on Mars.

Founded in 1860, TAG Heuer has pioneered, mastered and dominated high-frequency timing and chronographs since 1916, the year Charles-August Heuer introduced the 1/100th Mikrograph stopwatch. With the Calibre 360 in 2005, TAG Heuer introduced the first-ever wrist mechanical chronograph measuring and displaying 1/100th of a second. In January 2011, TAG Heuer went one step further with the Carrera Mikrograph 1/100th of a second chronograph, the first-ever integrated wrist mechanical chronograph with a central hand displaying 1/100th of a second. This internally designed, patented and manufactured Masterpiece literally reinvents the mechanical chronograph as for the first time ever, a mechanical chronograph combines the ultimate accuracy together with the utmost readability.

The “Apollo Project” is the latest milestone in TAG Heuer’s relentless drive towards total mastery of mechanical speed and precision.
