Today, TAG Heuer is surprising
Today, TAG Heuer is surprising the watch world with the rebirth of one of its most well-known watches – the Skipper – in a brand new package. It's old meets new with 2023 TAG Heuer Skipper. If you're the yachting type, you're no doubt familiar with the Intrepid – a groundbreaking vessel in its time known for winning the famed America's Cup race in 1967.
That boat, now rests at the docks of Newport, Rhode Island, is best known in horological circles for the distinct blue color of its deck. The reason we watch-lovers know about the color on a more-than-half-a-century-old boat is because it inspired one of the most iconic vintage watches on the planet: The Heuer Skipper ref. 7754, also known as the “Skipperera.” Literal paint chips were taken off the deck of the Intrepid to ensure the hue matched the subdials of that watch, which went into development in 1967 before entering production in 1968.
It's with that love in mind that we were excited to see that TAG Heuer was returning to the Skipper with a brand new 2023 release, but with some truly interesting changes.
