The association with sports and timing continues to be a profitable one, with numerous high-profile sponsorships including, at one time or another, Manchester United, the French Professional Football League, Porsche’s Formula E Electric Racing Team, the Ferrari F1 team and Aston Martin Red Bull Racing. Tag Heuer now sits as part of the same stable as Louis Vuitton, Tiffany & Co and Moët champagne. The resulting business, now known as Tag Heuer (which is pronounced 'tag hoy-yur', BTW), was in turn acquired by the LVMH luxury conglomerate in 1999, for nearly half a billion pounds. By the Seventies, however, the company was beginning to falter and a private holding company, Tag (Techniques d’Avant-Garde), purchased a majority stake. Heuer timepieces were used for three Olympics during the Twenties, so beginning an association with sports that stands to this day. It also came up with the first wrist chronograph in 1914 and, soon after, began making stopwatches. The company went on to design chronographs for planes, cars and boats.ĭuring the Thirties its innovations in dashboard chronographs led to the Autavia (a portmanteau of ‘automobile’ and ‘aviation’), which became one of its key lines. Heuer took out his first chronograph patent in 1882 and five years later came up with the oscillating pinion, the part that allows chronographs to be stopped and started, which is still used today. Its founder, Édouard Heuer, was an inventor and innovator and something of a maverick, setting up his 19th century watchmaking business in the village of St-Imier and becoming a central part of the history of watchmaking.
