For TAG Heuer, which is at the forefront of the watchmaking industry, watchmaking is an art. After 154 years of experience, TAG Heuer designers, engineers, and craftsmen mastered the art and carried it forward in each TAG Heuer’s own dials, cases and movements. TAG Heuer’s unparalleled artistic achievements are especially reflected in his classic Carrera watch. TAG Heuer’s second completely self-produced movement has an unprecedented 80-hour power reserve. With the classic design of the Carrera series of watches and chronographs, the TAG Heuer Carrera series is still rapidly writing its immortal legend.

Movement Art

 TAG Heuer, located in the world-renowned watchmaking shrine Jura, Switzerland, has a century of watchmaking experience and cutting-edge watchmaking technology. Two precision chronograph movements from TAG Heuer are loved by watch lovers and connoisseurs with their iconic classic design.

 The first chronograph movement was Calibre 1887. This movement is produced and assembled by TAG Heuer’s watchmaking workshops in La Chaux-de-Fonds and Chevenez, Switzerland. Launched in 2009, this movement is known for its extreme accuracy. In honor of Edouard Heuer’s ‘swing gear’ invented and patented in 1887, TAG Heuer specifically named this movement ‘Calibre 1887’. Since its release, Calibre 1887 has been well received and has won praise from watchmaking industry experts, winning the Petite Aiguille in the ‘Geneva Watch Awards’ in 2010.

In 2013, TAG Heuer released its second chronograph movement, the Calibre CH 80. Based on the experience of developing Calibre 1887 movement, TAG Heuer’s research and development team successfully developed this new movement in just two years, turning the dream of the world into reality.

TAG Heuer has been committed to the vertical integration of the entire industry chain of the watchmaking industry, and has invested a total of 40 million Swiss francs for this purpose. TAG Heuer currently has four watchmaking workshops in Switzerland that produce cases, dials and the two chronograph movements mentioned above. The production base of the case is in Corno and Canton Jura, while the production base of the dial is in Tramelan. And Canton Bern. TAG Heuer is the undisputed leader in high-end chronographs and is one of the very few Swiss watch brands that can produce all major components (calibration, dial, case) in-house. TAG Heuer’s goal is to achieve an annual production of 100,000 chronograph movements by 2015.

In November 2013, TAG Heuer officially released a new chronograph caliber ‘Calibre CH 80’, code-named 1969, of which ‘CH’ represents the production base of the movement-watchmaking in Chevenez, Switzerland Workshop, and ’80’ represents the power reserve of this movement is up to 80 hours. Calibre CH 80 movement consists of 233 parts and is only 6.5 mm thick. The design with a vertical clutch mechanism ensures that it has an ultra-long power reserve and accurate timing. The movement frequency is 28,800 times (4 Hz) per hour, with a daily error range of -4 / + 6 seconds.

Calibre CH 80 is produced and assembled by TAG Heuer’s fine watchmaking workshops in La Chaux-de-Fonds and Chevenez, Switzerland. In addition to the date window, there is a chronograph at 3, 6, and 9 o’clock on the dial. The exquisite Geneva ripple on the movement is perfectly combined with the snailed tungsten rotor, the nickel-plated straddle wheels and the delicately arranged wheel train splints. The four-spoke balance wheel and components on the movement are from the Swiss company Atokalpa, while the plywood, motherboard and original movement components are manufactured by TAG Heuer’s Chevenez watchmaking workshop. In general, TAG Heuer’s new movement has the following three advantages: slim sideways, long power reserve, and large production potential.

The unique design of the Calera collection underscores its distinctive charm. Its classic elements include a simple and elegant appearance, a sturdy case and an extremely easy-to-read dial.

The Calella series has continued to innovate for many years, constantly re-interpreting the classic elements from the past, and creating one after another for the past, present and future. This year, more than half a century after its launch, the Carrera watch series has added several new super classics.

Portrait of Georges Guynemer in the Musée d’Orsay in Paris
Georges Guynemer: Flying Pioneer, Sky Knight

 Looking back on 1914, the outbreak of World War I, when flying technology was still in its infancy. The French Clément Ader made its first test flight in 1890, but the American Wright brothers formally made a successful test flight in 1903. In 1909, Louis Blériot successfully flew over the English Channel. Georges Guynemer was one of the few pioneer pilots who had the opportunity to taste the sky.

 Georges Guynemer was born in 1894. He was frail and sick since childhood. After the outbreak of World War I, he aspired to join Rong Weiguo. Because of his poor constitution, he was rejected by the French military. He was later admitted to the Air Force department, which was not long established, as a mechanic apprentice. He has been very obsessed with flying. He was qualified as an Air Force pilot in April 1915 and was assigned to the third ‘Stork squadron’. He later piloted the Morane-Saulnier Type L fighter to demonstrate first-class flight technology. Later, he will The Morane-Saulnier Type L fighter jets that they drove were all marked with ‘Vieux Charles’.
 In 1912, the 12th Fighter Brigade of France formed the third squadron in Reims (Hans). When the war broke out, the squadron was sent to Alsace (Alsace) and decided to use the stork as the stork is very common in that area Some pilots even reported that a group of storks flew randomly during the flight, witnessing the deep fate of the squadron and flying storks.

Georges Guynemer’s SPAD fighter S.VII, nicknamed Vieux Charles
 Georges Guynemer was initially assigned a simple task of observing the enemy. By July 19, 1915, he had shot down enemy fighters for the first time as a fighter pilot. At that time, the Nieuport 10 fighter he piloted was more powerful and had a better record. He soon became the best pilot of the French Air Force and was awarded the Legion of Honor Medal of Honor by the 21st birthday. His outstanding talent and technology even influenced the design of Air Force fighters (including SPAD fighters). Thanks to his ingenious suggestions, SPAD became one of the most outstanding fighter aircraft of the French military. He participated in the battles of Verdun and the Somme and was wounded many times. On September 17, 1917, he was lifted off as Captain of the Flying Stork Squadron, but he did not expect that this was the last mission. He was only 22 years old when he died for the country. During his three years in the army, he participated in many battles and made great achievements, including confirming the shooting down of 53 enemy aircraft (and the possibility of shooting down another 35 enemy aircraft). The French Air Force later seized him as a military flying hero.

Air Force Hero Georges Guynemer Memorial Stamp
 Established in 1935, the École de l’Air has adopted the motto ‘Overcoming’ of Georges Guynemer as its school motto, and has a memorial plaque next to the Air Base 701 (701 Air Base) runway in Salon-de-Provence The following words are engraved to encourage today’s flight students: ‘Until you have given everything, you have given nothing,

Later, when the Air Force pilots were on duty, they gradually replaced their pocket watches with wristwatches, making it easier to read time; Bell & Ross introduced this history as the theme and introduced the WW1 watch (Wrist Watch 1) after PW1; The generous dial size and minimal bezel design echoed the design of the first watches worn by pilots at the time.

Adjusted when wearing gloves) and other details design, for the Vintage WW1 Guynemer watch with the charm of those years.
 The nostalgic atmosphere and the watch style are perfectly natural, and the flying stork pattern at 6 o’clock adds even more historical significance, because the squadron pilot saw the stork logo as a mascot, and the back of the case was engraved with a portrait of Georges Guynemer, echoing the stork pattern, and the dial number The design also matches the 2 on the fuselage of Georges Guynemer; the blue seconds hand is a watchmaking tradition, and the arched crystal glass is cut with high technology, adding a touch of antique watch temperament.

Flying storks soar
 The Flying Stork Squadron has added the Flying Stork logo to the fuselage since 1914. The outstanding flying skills and heroic performance of the team members have made the squadron a legend in flight history. In 1916, the squadron commander praised Georges Guynemer as ‘the best flying stork’ in the team, which is indeed a praise.
 From World War I to the truce on November 11, 1918, the Flying Stork Squadron confirmed that it had shot down 178 enemy aircraft (and possibly another 204 enemy aircraft), becoming one of the most famous flying combat units in the history of the French Air Force; the squadron is currently named SPA 3.
 In 1940, the Flying Stork Squadron returned to the battlefield, at which time the team members were reassigned to the RAF 329 Squadron. By 1945, the 1/2 Flying Stork Squadron was established and equipped with a Spitfire Spitfire, and later equipped with a P47 Thunderbolt Thunder fighter. The squadron was dispatched to the Indochina Peninsula the following year. Currently, the squadron is based on the 116 Air Base in Luxeuil-Saint Sauveur and is equipped with the Mirage 2000-5F fleet. In 2012, the squadron celebrated its 100th anniversary. The celebration was sponsored by Bell & Ross.
