This year will mark Jack Heuer's 90th birthday. Jack was born November 19, 1932.

TAG Heuer is ramping up towards the celebration and I think we can expect a very special watch.

Some of the filming has already taken place. Here's a picture, from Nicholas Biebuych's Instagram. Nicholas is TAG Heuer's Heritage Director.

I assume you ordered two Hubert? One to wear and one to keep in the safe for collector purposes

LOL. Indeed I had preordered one, but I ended-up cancelling, since I am not a gold watch type of person and this would have ended-up not used. But for those who like gold watches, this should be pretty good.

I shall forever remember this watch as the one @Aquagraph (Rob) was certain that @Hubert told him was not the JH90, when in fact @Hubert never said that at all. LOL 🙄

Looks pretty smart to me, and a bargain.... £2000 cheaper than the Porsche one, that red strap must be super expensive!

Yupp 👍

Stunning! The contrast of the black and gold looks great, I would love to own this one. Shame about the price. This would probably take WOTY for me, challenged only by the blue Porsche

It's nice but still that silly running seconds has to mess up the dial... 🤦

The official release only partially nods to Jack Heuer, but it isn't released as a JH90 model as far as I can tell

2022 TAG Heuer sure is a mix of everything. Colourful cheap quartz, solar power hippie movements, diamond covered plasma, oil coloured tourbillions and solid gold watches in 42mm. What a year!

No mention of Jack Heuer there, or on the watch. No signature on the rotor or the back of the strap.... looks like we have to stop using the JH90 nomenclature.

So.... is there a JH90?
