Product Description
TAG Heuer’s special edition “Targa Florio” form the Heuer Classis re-edtions range takes it name from an endurance road race that was first held in the mountains of Southern Italy in 1906. Created by wealthy enthusiast Vincenzo Florio, the Targa (meaning “Plate” or”Shield”) was the most prestigious motor race in the world in its early years, pre-dating the F1 World Championship by almost 50 years.
The inspiration for the design of the TAG Heuer Targa Florio were the Heuer Flieger chronographs of the 1930s. There are many similarities between the Flieger and the Targa Florio : the coin-edge bezel, the bold white numerals at each hour (including the chrono sub-dial overlapping the “10” and the “2”), the over-sized crown and the shape of the two chrono re-set buttons are all a close match.
