TAG Heuer

TAG Heuer was established in 1860 as the Uhrenmanufaktur Heuer AG in Switzerland. The TAG Group acquired Heuer in 1985 and rebranded the company to TAG Heuer. Luxury group LVMH (Bulgari, Zenith, Hublot, Louis Vuitton) acquired TAG Heuer in 1999. The words TAG Heuer stand for Techniques d’Avant Garde and the founders name (Heuer).

Among the notable TAG Heuer watches are the TAG Heuer Carrera, TAG Heuer Grand Carrera, TAG Heuer Monaco, TAG Heuer Link, TAG Heuer Calibre 1887, TAG Heuer Calibre 16, TAG Heuer Calibre 17, TAG Heuer Mikropendulums.
