TAG Heuer launched a revolutionary “carbon fiber” hairspring this year, finding a balance between traditional metal hairsprings and silicon hairsprings. According to a video released by TAG Heuer, the processing process is similar to that of a silicon hairspring, except that the base material is replaced with carbon fiber.
To develop this hairspring, replica TAG Heuer Carrera organized a team of mathematicians, physicists and chemists instead of traditional watchmakers. The potential advantages of this technology are:
1. Low density, the hairspring is basically unaffected by gravity and impact. The watch was tested up to 5,000G / 1m on a hard surface, the metal balance spring will bend, the silicon hairspring will rupture, and the carbon composite hairspring will remain intact.
2. The perfect concentric oscillation is the result of the geometry of the carbon composite hairspring, which reduces the center of gravity offset and improves the accuracy of the watch.
3. The carbon fiber composite hairspring is molded at one time with the inner and outer piles already included, which reduces the assembly difficulty.
4. Carbon composite hairspring is completely anti-magnetic.
5. Paired with a custom balance to achieve less temperature and optimum resilience.
At present, the carbon fiber hairspring has been patented by TAG Heuer and is mounted on the Carrera series of chronograph tourbillons. It is reported that it will be launched in May this year. At the same time, according to the reliable line, the carbon fiber hairspring will be applied to other series of TAG Heuer and will gradually become popular.
