New from Tag Heuer's Link series, this automatic GMT watch makes a fine addition to any gentleman's collection and is ideal for the man who travels. The large brushed steel case frames a black dial with an attractive horizontal "scanline" pattern. Designed for both elegance and function, the dial offers luminous hands and a red-tipped seconds hand, along with hand-applied faceted steel indicators, a date display, and a red-arrow-tipped GMT hour hand. The GMT hand, corresponding to an engraved 24-hour time scale featured on the polished steel bezel., makes it simple to keep track of "when" you are, no matter how many time zones you cross. The watch presents on Tag Heuer's remarkably fluid and emblematic link bracelet, in brushed steel. Other notable features of this watch include Swiss automatic movement, a virtually scratch-proof domed sapphire crystal, and a screw-in crown and screw-down caseback for water resistance to a full 200 meters. TAG Heuer traces its roots to the Swiss village of St-Imier where, in 1860, watchmaker Edouard Heuer opened his first shop. His vision was to create remarkable timepieces that pushed the envelope of innovation and precision. The company's reputation grew and Heuer's first patent for a chronograph mechanism in 1882 was followed by a long list of achievements: the first stopwatch accurate to 1/100 of a second, the first dashboard stopwatch for race cars, the first miniature electronic timekeeping device accurate to 1/1000th of a second, and the first automatic movement with a microrotor, to name just a few. Heuer's reputation for gold-standard precision earned the company the privilege of providing official timing services for a number of world-class competitive sporting events, including the Olympic Games, the FIS Ski World Cup, and the FIA Formula 1 World Championships. To this day, TAG Heuer maintains a close association with the world of competitive sports and enjoys a devoted following among sports celebrities and enthusiasts. In 1985, Heuer joined the TAG (Techniques D'Avant-Garde) group, and the TAG Heuer name and logo were created. Now one of the most recognized and sought-after watch brands in the world, TAG Heuer continues its reputation of innovative design and technological excellence.
