A small pair of hands mounted at the top of the dial (12 o'clock position) indicates the duration of the trip (up to 12 hours). Designed for use in automobiles and aircraft, two large hands mounted from the center pinion indicate the time of day, as on a traditional clock. In 1911, Heuer received a patent for the "Time of Trip", the first dashboard chronograph. Įdouard Heuer patented his first chronograph in 1882 and in 1887 patented an "oscillating pinion" still used by major watchmakers of mechanical chronographs. In 1860 Edouard Heuer founded Uhrenmanufaktur Heuer AG (English: Heuer Watchmaking Inc.) in St-Imier, Switzerland. I will be uploading photos later tonight when I finish work.TAG Heuer Carrera automatic chronograph with tachymeter 1860 through 1880s I am looking for £1,350 taking into account all of the above. This seems to have almost melted some of the material the box is covered with, however this does only affect the bottom of the box and cannot be seen (please see photos). The bottom of the box has unfortunately suffered some damage from my partner spilling her lovely reed diffuser air freshener over the table where the box has been kept. The watch will come fully boxed with all spare links. However, I will take this into account when pricing the watch. By then just moving the watch after this the automatic mechanism has enough charge to work all day so this is not an issue at all. The wind up mechanism has recently started to click after winding the watch a small amount, as if the watch has been fully wound but is not yet ticking. The watch has been very well looked after during my time proudly owning it, however due to my love for wearing the watch it does have general daily wear marks (please see photos). I have owned this watch from new and still have the original bag from purchase in 2020. I am selling my beloved Tag Heuer Aquaracer as I have just received a promotion at work and will be rewarding myself with a new Tag Heuer watch.
