Since 1860, TAG Heuer has been successfully pairing contrasting concepts - tradition and innovation, prestige and performance, sport and glamour. In fact, TAG Heuer has written some of the most important chapters in the history of Swiss watchmaking with its oscillating pinion in the Microtimer (the first bracelet chronograph accurate to 1/1000th of a second), the Monaco V4 Concept Watch and the Carrera Calibre 360 (the first mechanical movement to show 1/1000th of a second). In 1999 TAG Heuer joined the LVMH Group, the world leader in luxury goods. Thanks to the infinite creativity and expertise of its teams, TAG Heuer is still pushing back the boundaries of watchmaking. Its achievements have been widely recognised by both watchmaking and industry innovation experts, and in the last ten years TAG Heuer is one of the only Swiss watchmakers to have regularly won awards. While resolutely forward-looking, heritage and tradition are still at the heart of what TAG Heuer does. Handed down through the generations, its values and watchmaking expertise have made TAG Heuer the timeless and audacious brand that it is. These values have resulted in its unique style which showcases its watchmaking expertise while embodying excellence, leadership, accuracy and passion. Léonardo DiCaprio, Lewis Hamilton, Jenson Button, Maria Sharapova and Cameron Diaz have all joined TAG Heuer and all share a steadfast determination to be the very best at what they do...just like our employees.
We are a fashion lifestyle brand of big dreams, colorful confidence, and inspired design. Founded on Family, Fashion and Philanthropy, we believe that our employees and customers are the heart and soul of our brand and that giving back is the truest form of success. Fashion meets innovation in the design of our two state-of-the-art facilities based in the heart of Austin, Texas, and overflows into the design of our growing retail environment across the country. Since Kendra began this company in 2002, she has lived by three core values: Family, Fashion, and Philanthropy. She created a brand and a culture that puts family first, constantly pushes the boundaries of fashion and design, and authentically values giving back and making a difference in the community. Those three pillars have become the foundation of our culture, and set us apart from the rest. From a local to a national scale, if someone comes to us with a cause they care about, we will always have something to give. Philanthropy has become an integral part of the Kendra Scott company, and the relationships we have built with our customers and our communities as a result are invaluable. We are proud to say that in 2016 alone, our company gave back over $3.5MM and donated more than 75,000 pieces of jewelry to 3,500 local and national organizations. Every Kendra Scott piece is intricately and artfully designed at our state of the art studio in Austin, Texas. Kendra and her team created the Design Lab of their dreams complete with casting, 3D printing and an extensive product and material library. The design studio offers a unique space to create, innovate and be inspired.
