FUNCTIONS Anti-scratch sapphire crystal with double anti-reflection treatment All our watches are fitted with sapphire crystal. This is cut from a polished slice of solid sapphire that has been created by the fusion and crystallization of alumina. Sapphire is so hard that only a diamond can scratch it. Automatic chronograph movement TAG Heuer Automatic chronographs make it possible to measure times with an accuracy of 1/8th of a second. They are all fitted with very high- frequency Swiss movements and represent one of the great achievements in the long watchmaking tradition and history of the company.
