2022, the year when the manufacture reconnects with the adrenaline of great firsts and the bold heritage contained in its very name (TAG for Technique d'Avant-Garde).

green
light with a new TH50-00 caliber capturing the sun's brilliance in just two minutes for an entire day.
But the real surprise of this watch, announced in March but launched on the market next October, is revealed once in the dark.
In the line of sight, a waltz under neon impulse of magnetic blue and green, obtained thanks to a skilful mixture of carbon and Super-Luminova.
