史上最平易近人的陀飛輪表

史上最平易近人的陀飛輪表

TOURBILLON, MORE APPROACHABLE THAN EVER

As its R&D DSirector Guy Sémon said, TAG Heuer targets young people who appreciatethe avant-garde. And TAG Heuer Carrera Heuer-01 is undoubtedly the best choice for this group of people. It combines the two most popular and complex devices in traditional watch-making industry - it is an automatic chronograph combined with a titanium and carbon fl ying tourbillon.

Made from grade fi ve titanium - lightweight and more shock-resistant - it uses a different form of construction with 12 modular components. This design opens up a huge range of possibilities, with an inf i nite combination of materials, colours, treatments and fi nishes.This assembly is complemented by a black alligator strap sewn onto rubber, ensuring it boasts TAG Heuer's signature ref i ned, yet sporty look. It's also waterproof to 100 metres.

At 4 Hz, and 28,800 vibrations/hour, the main technical challenge was to house a single barrel, the chronograph functions, the automatic winding mechanism and the fl ying tourbillon within a diameter of 32 mm, whilst ensuring the counters were well spaced to create a modern, balanced look.

When asked how TAG Heuer managed to bring out this accessible luxury, Sémon said: “We have good mastery of the industrial processes and manufacturing costs.”

At the end of the interview, Sémongave a Mona Lisa smile and said: “This June, TAG Heuer is going to bring out its new invention, which is def i nitely going to amaze the market again.”

正如Sémon先生所說，豪雅的主要受眾群體是前衛而有品位的年輕人。今年推出的新款泰格豪雅卡萊拉Heuer-02T再一次徹底滿足了這個群體的擇表條件。它融合了傳統制表領域最知名的兩種復雜裝置：悅目的陀飛輪裝置和精準的計時裝置，卻有著比所有瑞士品牌的陀飛輪手表都要平易近人的定價。

此款腕表制造最大的技術挑戰是如何在4赫茲和28,800振次/小時的頻率下，將單發條盒、多種計時功能、自動上弦裝置以及浮動式陀飛輪全部容納于直徑僅32毫米表殼內的同時保證各個計時盤的合理布局，以賦予腕表時尚、具有平衡美感的外觀。

卡萊拉Heuer-02T此款機芯由5級鈦合金制成，材質輕盈，防震性能更強。黑色鱷魚皮表帶內襯天然橡膠，防水深度可達100米。

當被問到這個突破是如何實現的時候，研發總監Sémon如是說：“這款手表之所以能脫穎而出，得益于豪雅精湛的制造技藝和對工業流程和制造成本的完美把控?！?/p>

說罷，他自豪而神秘地笑了：“今年6月，豪雅還將推出一款研發新品，必將震撼高級制表界?！?/p>

泰格豪雅這次又將如何打破常規，讓我們拭目以待。

Last year, TAG Heuer became the fi rst Swiss luxury watch brand ever to bring out a smart watch that runs the Android Wear platform. Connected, known as “a watch connected to the future”, also appeared at the 2016 BaselWorld, attracting no less attention than the fi ve new Heuer watches.
