tag heuer aquaracer chronotimer mens replica

TweetEmailIn 1966, Heuer (before it was TAG Heuer) patented the first miniaturized electronictimekeeping instrument accurate to 1/1000th of a second. Now, 38 years later, TAGHeuer releases the first wristwatch capable of the same level of precision: theMicrotimer.Features of the MicrotimerF1 racing timer.

The fact that TAG Heuerwas the first to achieve this level of precision is a testament to its reputationin the world of racing.The Microtimer sells for roughly $1,300.Additional resourcesTheMicrotimer product page.TheMicrotimer Diamonds.Microtimerproduct card (PDF).Microtimeruser manual (PDF).Update (4/15/2005): From Watch Report reader Victor Shiff, "The 1/1000 timer from TAG Heuer is not the first such watch. Some 12+ years ago (from fallible memory), Casio had several watches with 1/1000 second (1 ms) chronograph functions, cheaper than $1300 too!. There is an unstated problem with these 1 ms chronographs and that is the contact bounce of the button contacts that the watch circuitry has to ignore. This bounce can be from 5 ms to as much as 15 ms and is not necessarily repeatable. What this means to me is the 1 ms is marketing hype."Thanks, Victor. I noticed shortly after publishing this article that the Seiko Sportura World Time (SNJ005) quietly launched with a millisecond timer. Maybe what TAG meant is that they had the most expensive such watch, or perhaps the coolest looking. I'll give them that.

The Grand CARRERA Calibre 36 RS was first revealed by Tag Heuer at last years BaselWorld as their Concept Watch of the year. The Calibre 36 RS went on to win several awards including an award in the Sports category at the Grand Prix d'Horlogerie de Gen��ve in November 2008. This impressive concept watch is the first to feature an mechanical automatic chronograph capable of measuring and displaying 1/10ths of a second. The watch has a stunning black titanium case with a carbide coating and has beautiful "black gold" accents on the dial.The first Grand Carrera was launched in 2007 and had the first mechanical line of movements with Rotating System. This new feature enabled the user to easily read the small seconds, second time zone, or chronograph time by displaying the elapsed time. The Grand Carrera Calibre 36 RS enhances this feature by magnifying it by 10 times. The COSC-certified chronometer movement beats at the frequency of 36, 000 vibrations per hour and has 2 Rotating Systems indicating the chronograph minutes at 3 o'clock and chronograph hours at 6 o'clock. There is also a Linear permanent second at 9 o'clock and a date display.The black titanium case measures 43 mm in diameter and has an oversize titanium carbide coated crown with red line at 10 o'clock allowing to use the Rotating Scale. The watch has titanium carbide coated push buttons, screw-in crown, and bezel which has been fine-brushed and polished - displaying a tachymeter scale. The dial is protected by a double antireflective curved sapphire crystal, and the case back has a smoked double sapphire case back which allows you to view the unique mechanism. The black dial displays "black gold" Chronograph minute at 3 o'clock, and Chronograph hour at 6 o'clock. The curved faceted "black gold" indexes and TAG Heuer logo have been hand applied. The watch is completed by a black rubber strap with a titanium carbide coated end piece and a titanium carbide coated folding clasp with safety push buttons and applied TAG Heuer logo.
