Season 2: TAG Heuer and the ocean |

This time, we travel back to The America’s Cup in 1967. It was the year the racing yacht Intrepid stormed to victory. To commemorate Emil Mosbacher’s triumph, Heuer produced the iconic Reference 7754, or the Heuer Skipper. A timepiece that forever sealed TAG Heuer’s relationship with the ocean and sailing.
