TAG Heuer Joins FHH

TAG Heuer has joined the list of distinguished Swiss watch brands which are members of the Fondation de la Haute Horlogerie.  Established in 2005, FHH is a Geneva-based not for profit organization which promotes the culture of Swiss watchmaking through the communication of the industry's key values of authenticity, innovation, and a culture of creativity and quality.  Such values are well in accord with those of TAG Heuer, who for 150 years has devoted itself tirelessly to the advancement of horological technology and the attainment of ultimate timekeeping precision. The fruits of these efforts are seen across a long timeline--from TAG Heuer's pioneering role as an Olympic timekeeper in the early 20th century, to its current involvement with such high-profile sports as golf, tennis, and motor racing.    

“The FHH has gained the respect and admiration of the Fine Watchmaking industry as a whole,” stated Jean-Christophe Babin, President and CEO of TAG Heuer. “We are extremely proud to become an active member and thus demonstrate our commitment to the founding values of Haute Horlogerie.”

To mark its entry into the FHH on October 1st, TAG Heuer will be presenting its acclaimed Grand Carrera Calibre 8 RS Grande Date GMT watch at the Munich Time event from October 30th to November 2nd, 2008 and Salon Belles Montres Paris on November 28th-30th, 2008.  

Other brands which are partners of the FHH include A. Lange & Sohne, Antoine Preziuso, Audemars Piguet, Baume & Mercier, Boucheron, Cartier, Chanel, Chopard, Corum, Daniel Roth, Gerald Genta, Greubel Forsey, Girard-Perregaux, Hublot, IWC, Jaeger-LeCoultre, JeanRichard, Hermes SA, Montblanc, Panerai, Parmigiani Fleurier, Piaget, Perrelet, Richard Mille, Roger Dubuis, Vacheron Constantin, and Van Cleef & Arpels.
