TAG Heuer Monaco

Looking back on 50 years of TAG Heuer Monaco watches and Calibre 11
  On March 3, 1969, when TAG Heuer (Heuer has always used the founder’s last name Heuer as the brand name, and later changed to TAG Heuer) Monaco series watches were launched at a press conference held in New York and Geneva at the same time, journalists worldwide And watch enthusiasts are all amazed. This novel and avant-garde masterpiece is highly recognizable with the industry’s rare square waterproof case and bold and iconic design.
  The watch design was also a wonderful note of the advanced technology that the Swiss pioneer watchmaker represented at the time. Calibre 11 developed and sold by TAG Heuer was a rare automatic chronograph movement in the world at that time.
  TAG Heuer’s then CEO, Jack Heuer, argued that groundbreaking innovation should be paired with eye-catching design. The Monaco series does just that. In 1971, Steve McQueen wore a Monaco watch in the movie ‘Le Mans’, which made this timepiece shine on the screen.
The Paradoxical Superstar
  Over the past two decades, the Monaco collection has been very closely related to the field of haute horlogerie. For example, the series has introduced different models with new complications, designs and materials. In the course of evolution, the Monaco series upholds the spirit of innovation, making it famous and sought after. The new book, Paradoxical Superstar, tells the entire story of this masterpiece, including excerpts from the archives as well as design and sketches of the movement. British writer and journalist Nicholas Foulkes, watch expert Gisbert Brunner, and American writer Michael Clerizo have all written and documented the heritage of the Monaco series And innovation. H.S.H. Prince Albert II of Monaco prefaces the book, affirming the close connection between the Monaco series and its city of the same name.

Glashütte Original, Germany’s top watchmaker, has created eight unique timepieces, each equipped with a ceramic plate made by Mason Porcelain Factory, decorated with hand-drawn delicate dragon-shaped patterns, Painted with ceramic pigments containing pure gold powder. After high temperature treatment, the pigment adheres to the surface, showing golden matte; the highly skilled artist then uses agate pen for golden dragon processing, making it clear and dazzling.

Eight unique Mason Tourbillon Year Limited Edition watches, the flying dragon on the dial seems to be competing for the pearl at 6 o’clock on the surface. This pearl is Glashütte’s extraordinary floating tourbillon. The floating tourbillon was created by Alfred Helwig, the legendary German watchmaker, when he was a tutor at a German watchmaking school in Glashütte in 1920, showing the essence of watchmaking art. The balance wheel, the pallet fork and the escape wheel are placed in a cantilever bracket, which rotates 360 degrees per minute to offset the swing deviation caused by the gravity of the balance wheel. The miniature second hand display is attached to the floating tourbillon bracket, and the carefully polished gold scale makes the display clearer.

The Mason Tourbillon Year Limited watch is forty classic in a forty millimeter rose gold case with sophisticated watchmaking technology and sophisticated design. The traditional blue hour and minute hands pass across the white ceramic plate made by Mason Porcelain Factory, counting the elapsed time. The twelve-hour scale is displayed by hand-drawn Roman numerals; these Roman numerals, together with the Glashütte logo, are carefully placed on the surface. The ‘1/1’ inscription on the back of the rose gold case shows that each of these eight watches is unique.

The Mason Tourbillon Year Limited Watch is driven by a carefully modified automatic movement No. 94-11. Through the anti-reflective sapphire case back of the rose gold case, you can enjoy the movement of the movement. The 48-hour power reserve is convenient and practical, and fully meets modern needs. The Louisiana crocodile leather strap and folding clasp are closely connected to the case with delicate flanges, which makes it very comfortable to wear.

In order to facilitate the memorization, humans have established a calendar to simulate the cyclical rule of celestial bodies. In the future, the calendar gradually became popular and became an important basis for people to follow in their lives. However, the calendar is designed to perfect the law for the convenience of use. It is difficult to be completely consistent with the operation of irregular celestial bodies. Therefore, it is necessary to maintain the synchronization of the calendar and the astronomical through fixed settings. How to express the state of setting in the calendar through mechanical devices has become a big challenge for watchmakers.
   As early as 1770, the master watchmaker Jean-Antoine Lépine created a large and complex performance pocket watch for the French Emperor Louis XV, combining the minute repeater time with the performance of the perpetual calendar. . A century later, Audemars Piguet launched a pocket watch equipped with a perpetual calendar in the early days of its founding in 1875, and integrated the perpetual calendar performance into the watch in 1978. This time with the introduction of a leap year calendar watch is taken for granted.
   The ‘gregorian calendar’ we currently use is based on the 16th century Gregorian calendar. According to the rules, it is set to 12 months a year, alternating between big and small, every four years, 365 days a week, and a leap day at the end of February. , The average annual length is 365.25 days. In watches with perpetual calendar performance, such leap year rules can be accurately presented through machinery. It is just that the perpetual calendar mechanical structure is too complicated, so the ‘almanac’ appeared later with simpler mechanical structure and more in line with practical needs. The wearer only needs to adjust the February date length every year to maintain the accuracy of the whole year. This time, Audemars Piguet introduced the ‘leap year calendar’ performance with the same concept, making the watch’s calendar performance more practical.
   Millenary Quadriennium calendar, 18K rose gold case, diameter 47 × 42 mm, hour, minute indication, calendar performance, date, month, week display, 2905 / B01 bracelet movement, sapphire crystal, bottom case , Power reserve 168 hours, with alligator strap.
   The so-called ‘lean calendar’ refers to the ability to memorize the length of each month’s date within a year, including February with only 28 days. Except for February 29th of the following year, which must be manually adjusted by the user, other days can be automatically switched. Compared with the annual calendar, which must be adjusted at the end of February every year, the performance is more convenient, and the mechanical structure is simpler than the perpetual calendar, so it is also called ‘small perpetual calendar’. However, there are not many models equipped with ‘leap year calendar’ in the watch altar. Among them, the more well-known Breitling Navitimer 1461 watch with 19 movement (base on ETA 2892-A2) was introduced in the past. It has practical functions and a complicated design like a perpetual calendar. This year, Audemars Piguet chose the most modern Millenay Millennium series under its umbrella, combining avant-garde structural design and classic elements, to reinterpret the performance of the ‘leap year calendar’ in a completely different style.
The leap year calendar showing the avant-garde and classical blend
   The Millennium series is the original series of Audemars Piguet and Royal Oak. The contour of the oval case is harmonious and perfect, and the three-dimensional design can show the mechanical structure of the movement, showing the avant-garde style of unique style. And the most popular is the eccentric design of the dial configuration. The round dial that displays time information is arranged on the right half of the oval case. The space on the left becomes the perfect stage to show the escapement of the movement. The dial on the right is the main time zone of the millennial watch and the most important visual focus. In this leap year calendar watch, the date is displayed with a pointer type, which is arranged at the center position coaxial with the hour and minute hands, and the month and week are displayed by a window, which is arranged at 12 o’clock and 6 o’clock respectively. Although there is a lot of time information displayed, the overall visual sense is quite simple.
   In order to echo the oval shape of the case, the eccentric faceplate design is used, and the size change of the Roman numeral time scale is used to emphasize the visual sense of the eccentric design. On the other hand, the track-like scales and Roman numeral time scales are used to match the classic atmosphere, creating an atmosphere of avant-garde and classic ingenuity.
   Millenary Quadriennium’s 2905 / B01 hand-wound movement has the advantages of a patented Audemars Piguet escapement combined with a lever escapement and an 18th-century detent click escapement. Each shock can drive the cymbal to reciprocate once. C reduces the disturbance to the flip, and gives the maximum degree of freedom when turning the flip, and the double spring can improve the accuracy of the travel time.
Audemars Piguet escapement and double hairspring work together to create the best accuracy
   One of the special features of the millennial watch is that it can display the movement’s escapement on the left side of the surface. In this way, the structure of the movement needs to be greatly adjusted to bring the escapement on the other side Changing the system to the side of the face of the movement is a design method that is quite impressive. And in the new leap year calendar watch, equipped with a patented Audemars Piguet with double hairsprings, fully showing the strength of Audemars Piguet in watchmaking technology.
   The Audemars Piguet escapement is a patented design launched by the brand in 2006. It combines a lever escapement and a 18-century Robin’s click-and-click escapement architecture. In order to make every umbilical effect g as long as possible Freedom A therefore only allowed the escapement to intervene in 1 impact. At this time, the double balance springs that can compensate each other can make the free shuttle wheel run at the best isochronism, and the combination of the two is seamless. In addition, because the watch uses a semi-perspective design, users can directly appreciate the movement modified with the highest level of technology, including the chamfering of the edges of the parts, the brushed surface of the surface, the polishing of pearl dots, or the Geneva ripple To present. Not only does it show Audemars Piguet’s craftsmanship, but it also strengthens the three-dimensional vision of the movement structure.
