ONE YEAR AFTER ANNOUNCING the reimagining of the Aquaracer, TAG Heuer unveils its new Aquaracer Professional 1000 Superdiver at Watches and Wonders - an even more extreme and robust edition of its bread and butter tool watch. A big brother to the Aquaracer Professional 300, TAG Heuer's new Aquaracer Professional 1000 Superdiver ranks among the dive watches for the most hardcore saturation divers.

A timepiece with exceptional performance, the Professional 1000 Superdiver represents an important milestone for TAG Heuer: the first timepiece from the brand utilising calibre TH30-00 produced by Kenissi Manufacture SA. You would recall that Tudor (p. 56) and Chanel are stakeholders in the well-respected movement manufacturer.

The TAG Heuer Aquaracer Professional 1000 Superdiver belongs to the ultimate category designed for professional divers and after 40 years of developing dive watches, can be considered emblematic of the brand's essence and unique expertise in this area. The Professional 1000 Superdiver is by no means the brand's first 1000 metre deep-diving timepiece however. It follows icons from decades ago like the Heuer 1000m diver from 1982 and Super Professional from 1984, both designed for the most serious of divers, finding use with prestigious organizations, such as La Spirotechnique, the company founded by Jacques-Yves Cousteau.
