News The Team Oracle USA won the 34th America's Cup held last September in San Francisco. TAG Heuer, sponsor of the team, developed for the race a high-tech navigational instrument, the Aquaracer 72.
During this very tight race, skipper Jimmy Spithill and the crew of Oracle Team USA’s AC72 17 yacht were able to count on this ultra-sophisticated digital chronograph, the first nautical watch specially designed for and by a team of professional yachtsmen. The fruit of this collaboration between the brand’s engineers and their Oracle Team USA colleagues, was developed in the utmost secrecy. Much more than a simple timepiece, it is a veritable navigational instrument, personalised for each crew member and linked directly to the yacht’s computers by a wireless connection.
