The confusion comes about, as Accutron first conceived I the early 1950’s, had been from the beginning part of the Kennedy and NASA Space Program. Great clarification Mike, the article clearly states “in space” not the Moon as to the claim Richards claim. I may sell this on eBay, hopefully to a Tag junkie- any takers? Reply I am seemingly stuck with this junk, I have never spent so much time fiddling around with a damn watch, life is too short for such struggles. The dealer thus far refused to refund my money. I otherwise love my Rolex GMT for regular wear. I am back using my three-year-old $200 Garmin for golf, which is simply awesome, as opposed to the Tag that costs 18x more. After a brief struggle, he sent it off for repair.
Now the watch has stopped working again, I took it back to the dealer who fiddled with it again whilst I stood around with my phone.

It then worked for three weeks during which I found that a) the battery life with the GPS is less than 6 hours, b)difficult to read the screen in sunlight, which is when I play golf, c) the GPS disconnects if you receive a call, restarting it is fiddly, not ideal on a golf course, d) Unlike my Garmin which has 1,000s of golf courses preloaded, you have to individually download the course onto the watch from your phone/Wifi,e) unlike Apple or Garmin this watch is not intuitive and has no instruction manual. He then eventually swapped it for a new watch. It didn’t work out of the box, had no instructions, so after much fiddling, I took it back to the dealer, who then proceeded to waste a couple of hours trying to make it work, I had to stand around as he needed access to my iPhone. First-up I noticed that the watch is made in China, so much for the “Avant-Garde Swiss” brag line that Tag uses.

Two months back I was gifted a brand new Tag Golf watch, which was bought from the factory-owned shop at full list price. LVMH purchased the TAG Heuer subsidiary in 1999. TAG Group combined the TAG and Heuer brands to create the TAG Heuer company we know today. TAG is an abbreviation for Techniques d’Avant Garde. In 1985, Heuer was acquired by TAG Group (Holdings) S.A. The affinity with precision timekeeping in sports, and with automobile racing in particular, continues to this day. Other more famous developments receive individual attention below. In 1933, the brand launched the Autavia, the first dashboard stopwatch for race cars. During the 1920s, Heuer watches were used at the Antwerp, Paris and Amsterdam Olympics.

That, coupled with a series of technical innovations dating to the 1880s, led the company to become a specialist in the field of timing sporting events. The company soon built a reputation for quality workmanship and precision timekeeping. His first watchmaking workshop was located in St-Imier, in the Swiss Jura region. Heuer Watch Company was founded in 1860 by Edouard Heuer. Right, the Autavia dashboard stopwatch for race cars.
