We congratulate you on your choice of a TAG Heuer watch and thank you for
your confidence in our company. Your choice brings you technical innovation,
accuracy and endurance. These criteria, by which high-level sports performance
is judged, have given TAG Heuer its unique position amongst Swiss watch-
makers since 1860. Our dedication to measuring minute fractions of time has
led to many technical patents. It has also established TAG Heuer as official
timekeeper for the world’s most important sports events and as the leader in
the sports watch segment.
Each TAG Heuer watch has been created to meet the most exacting require-
ments. The materials we use guarantee the exceptional durability of our
watches, even under particularly severe operating conditions. Extreme care
is taken at every stage of production. Before being launched on the market,
each new product undergoes more than sixty precision and quality tests. In
addition, your TAG Heuer has been examined individually to verify its water-
resistance and ensure that it works perfectly.
The international guarantee card provided with your TAG Heuer watch is
recognized by TAG Heuer Service Centers in more than 100 countries world-
wide. TAG Heuer’s International Warranty is valid only if the serial number
imprinted on the watch casing is clearly legible and no part of the original
watch back, or original number has been removed, changed, altered, replaced,
erased or defaced. Failure of the foregoing conditions voids all rights resulting
from TAG Heuer International Warranty System.
Your new TAG Heuer watch combines tradition and technical achievement.
We trust it will bring you complete satisfaction.
