Nick FoulkesTag Heuer: Swiss Avant-garde Since 1860

Libro "imponente" e di grande impatto visivo, una raccolta di storia e prodotti del marchio. Unica pecca il fatto di essere sprovvisto di contenitore rigido.

The book arrive with some defects in the cover of it.

This is a huge, stunningly produced book of beautiful quality, BUT it isn't really a book about watches, at least not in a technical sense. Lots of fantastic pictures of cars and boats etc, F1 racing, personalities and even a few watches, together with a bit about the origins of the Brand etc, this is very much a luxury coffee table book - almost an art photography folio. There is also a separate softback book included with a ''timeline'' from 1860 showing World Events and the introduction of various (Tag)Heuer watches. So, if that's what you would like, this is one for you - but if your interest is purely in watches check it out before you buy. The photograph of athlete Jacqui Agyapong is pretty much worth the price of the book on it's own though!!!

Très déçu par ce livre qui n'est qu'un recueil des pub de la marque certes très sophistiqué esthétiquement mais qui manque tellement d'âme, mises à part les photos des grands pilotes qui ont portés le blason très haut.apportant l'unique moment d'émotion.L'histoire de cette maison est à peine effleuré et pour les passionné de montres comme moi...passer votre chemin. Rien sur les modèles mythiques, rien sur les anciens mouvements...,rien sur les collections, ce livre est un désert...qui reflète bien le tournant qu'a pris cette marque en se vidant de sa substance, en bafouant le swissmade faisant fabriquer ses composants en Chine, en exhibant Jack Heuer comme le dernier trophée d'une gloire déchue, vendant son histoire au marketing à coup de répliques, pâles fantômes du passé...pas un mot non plus sur le présent.

What a fantastic book, from the moment you feel the cover to the awe inspiring photographs inside, page after page of nostalgia, unbelievable photographs and TAG historical pieces this book is worth every penny and more.If you love coffee table books and love TAG watches even more you need to get a copy of this book its breathtaking.
