Heuer is celebrating its 150
th anniversary and what could be more fitting to its celebration than the
re release of its 1974 classic
Silverstone Chronograph. Tag
Heuer is closely linked to the race track even implementing elements of a car engine in its Monaco V4. Thus the
Silverstone Chronograph, whose very shape is inspired by the British circuit of the same name, is the perfect Collection to represent Tag
Heuer's energy, split second precision and craftsmanship. The 1974
Silverstone was the first automatic chronograph movement
immediately recognizable by the rounded corners of the watch case inspired by the
Silverstone race track - home of British
Motorsport.
The 2010
Silverstone will be available sporting either a blue or brown dial and coordinating
perforated alligator watch strap, and a limited edition of 1,500 pieces at $6,500 a piece.
Tag
Heuer has also renewed its long time partnership with the
McLaren Racing team. At twenty five years this renewal is one of the longest standing partnerships in motor sport's history.
