Watch companies also use F-1 drivers to perform live tests on
their watches. On the F-1 driver's wrist on the track, a watch is
exposed to acceleration forces and vibrations that cannot be
simulated under laboratory conditions. Interestingly, F-1 has
become a treasure house for watch companies in the development of
new materials. F-1 engineers, for instance, are experts in the use
of Grade 5 titanium used in accelerator pedals, gearboxes and parts
of the transmission. Tag Heuer Replica Watches_Tag Heuer

lighter than steel but more scratch-resistant and shines like white
gold or steel, like the Kirium F-1 model. Carbon fibre, a material
used for the chassis of F-1 cars, has been transferred to watch
dials. For such people, TAG created the SLR Chronograph, a special
edition offered only to buyers of the Mercedes- McLaren SLR sports
car.
Beautiful cars are what we call expensive toys for grown-up boys.
So are expensive watches. From an engineering point of view, cars
and watches are based on common mechanics, perhaps revealing
something of men's fascination with both machines. Man's automotive
status can be transported to his arms and wrist, car and watch
makers believe. According to David Bryden of the IWC, "Men have
very few items with which to express their image, beliefs,
interests or style. Whether they are about power, aesthetics,
self-control, performance, tradition, innovation, speed, uniqueness
or engineering, there is a car brand and watch brand to suit."
Probably the most publicized recent car-watch affair has been that
of Mercedes-AMG and IWC Schaffhausen, a relationship launched at a
celebrity-filled event in Geneva in 2005 with the unveiling of the
Mercedes CLS 55AMG IWC Ingenieur and the IWC Ingenieur AMG. The
relationship between Mercedes- AMG and IWC Schaffhausen is clearly
about exclusivity considering only 55 CLS AMGs are produced
annually.
