    The more I read and see photos about it the more I like it. However at the same size as the Tete and all previous 02Ts, this rules it out (outside of any cost consideration). Please TAG Heuer, a nice sub 43mm, preferably 41mm tourbillion....

    As a side, are they previewing / launching anything else? This time last year we had several reveals along with many TAG Heuer Yacht social videos.

    If this new technology is as revolutionary as they make it out to be, then it should start to percolate into the general product lines some time in the future.

    The Hairspring in the Nanograph is a development of the one Zenith showed off a year or so ago in the Defy 21. I think history will show the Defy 21 as a "TAG Heuer Zenith"- recall that Jack Heuer was at the launch, with the watch designed by Christophe Behling (TAG Heuer's long time designer), with internal smarts from Guy Semon and his team.

    For a time, Semon's R&D team went by "LVMH Science Institute", but they are now firmly back as part of TAG Heuer. TAG Heuer has the patents on the hairspring.

    The TAG Heuer Institute further developed the hairspring for commercial volume and economics and only TAG Heuer will produce the new hairspring at commercial scale.

    That is actually some very good news for TAG Heuer and its credibility within the industry as a true innovator.

    Nice to have the suspicions confirmed and good to see TAG Heuer at the forefront of watch technology and 'avant-gardes'.

    The funny thing is that. Most of my friends that prefer Omega to Heuer (and most of them does), doesn't really prefer the co-axial on their speedy. I guess it just matter of personal taste.

    Any guesses as to which watch is Jason Lund (Head of Nanotechnologies) is wearing on the video?

    Looks like an unreleased Carrera to me. Wouldn't surprise me if it uses some of the nanotech that they have developed.

    Well spotted @Hubert
    Looks like the 39mm case with a slim external bezel? ::confused2:: It might be shadow/reflection but I seem to see the black bezel throughout the video. The sort of slim bezel a lot of us would like to seen on the Autavia.
