Re: OTD -- 5th Anniversary / Feb. 12th / Scan or C
Dear fans of onthedash. Happy birthday to this fantastic website and Heuer vintage forum. As CEO of TAG Heuer I'm amazed by the passion filtering from the discussions as well as the documentation gathered by onthedash. 5 years ago I had been only 2 years in business with TAG Heuer and we then spent a great deal of time exploring our past with Jack Heuer to identify and capture those glorious pieces of our history which could have been re-edited. We came then with the Autavia Chrono for which we re-developped with Dubois-Depraz a module allowing to position the hour crown at 9:00 like was the Calibre 11 and 12. We also introduced the Targa Florio which was derived from an aviator watch from the 40's. Now we are ouselves approaching our 150 th anniversary and plan to have a couple of re-editions. If any of you as any suggestions on the Heuer timpieces we could bring back to life for the occasion, I would be only happy and grateful. Oh, last, my favourite Heuer from my personal collection ? A Mareograph from the mid 50's with blue and white dial and internal turning bezel. Waouh ! a great piece. Again HAPPY BIRTHDAY and thanks for your passion and suggestions
