The TAG Heuer Formula 1 Patrouille de Glaciers Special Edition replica watches was unveiled, just 200 of which will be available from the TAG Heuer and Bucherer boutique in Zermatt, the Boutique Jacot in Verbier, and from the online PDG shop from March 2016.
Jean-Claude Biver announced: “The Patrouille des Glaciers is one of Switzerland’s most legendary races. I am incredibly proud that the Swiss Army has chosen TAG Heuer as its partner. We are going to be involved in the race in the most dynamic fashion: not only as its sponsor, but also by organising the attendance of a patrol of 4 Chinese racers who will take part in the race and discover ski mountaineering in our Alps, helping to raise the event’s international profile.”
Colonel Max Contesse, Commander of the Patrouille des Glaciers and Fabrice Favero, President of the association to promote and support the Patrouille des Glaciers, stated: “We are delighted with this partnership with TAG Heuer. It will combine the legendary Patrouille des Glaciers, bringing its zeal, endurance and team spirit to the heart of our stunning mountains, with the prestigious international brand that is TAG Heuer, the perfect combination of sports performance and technological innovation.”
TAG Heuer announced that it has appointed two patrols for 2016: for the first time, a Chinese patrol will take part, coming specially from Shanghai for this event. they will be trained under the leadership of Florent Troillet in the resort of Verbier, the freeriding Mecca and home of the 2015 World Ski Mountaineering Championships, which has offered to host them for their week of preparation before the race.
The second TAG Heuer replica watches patrol will be a wild card that TAG Heuer will grant to participants whose application the organising committee decides merits further study.
The replica watches adopt innovative appearance by combining the remarkable performances and valued qualities of the Breitling and Bentley brands. The dial adopts silver design that imitates the radiator of the Bentley motors, and the patterns on the bezel originate from the classic check of the water box shield of Bentley motors.
Especially, the back is transparent so that the self-winding movement can be appreciated. Moreover, the back design is like a tyre, which is quite matched with the Bentley brand. Due to the practical dual time zone system, the popular Breitling copy watches are exclusive for businessmen and global travelers.
