Tuesday, September 27th, 2011

If you are looking for a watch that is up to the challenge of any adventure, delivering essential environmental and sport data whenever you need it, then the Tissot T-Touch series of watches deserves a close inspection.

For that trek in the wilderness, you need not fear getting lost with the precise electronic compass and altimeter guiding you, and for staying ahead of mother nature, you can get instant weather forecasts with the barometer and thermometer functions.

For sport endeavors, the chronograph with 1/100 second stopwatch resolution and split time and add time capabilities will serve you well. In addition, the T-Touch Watch provides basic timekeeping, dual time zones, perpetual calendar, two independent alarms, and more.

While highly functional, what really sets these watches beyond the crowd is the T-Touch technology which transforms the sapphire crystal into a touch sensitive interface by which all of the functions and features can be accessed by merely touching the crystal for instant readouts, delivering the data you need when you need it.

TAG Formula 1 Watches Capture The Spirit Of Formula 1 Racing

Sunday, September 25th, 2011

World renowned for precision time keeping, over the years TAG Heuer has provided official time keeping for such world class sports events as the Olympic Games and, more to the point here, the FIA Formula 1 World Championship Auto Racing, and the Indy 500. This long association with extreme sports activities, including high performance auto racing, is clearly evident in the TAG Heuer Formula 1 range of watches.

Designed with TAG Heuer’s characteristic classical yet innovative appeal, all TAG Formula 1 watches are outfitted with advanced movements, unidirectional rotating timing bezels with luminous marker at the 12 o’clock position and engraved 60 minute scale, and they are submersible to a depth of 200 meters (660 feet).

The Indy 500 models come equipped with 1/10 second resolution chronograph functions, including split time and add time, and a tachymeter scale for factoring distance, speed, and time at a glance. The three sub dials are configured within the dial face to resemble a racing car’s dashboard, and that dial is, of course, protected by an ultra scratch-resistant, anti-reflective sapphire crystal.

Suffused with robust sport styling and sophisticated high performance technology, these Formula 1 timepieces capture the dynamic spirit of Formula 1 auto racing very nicely.
