PARIS, March 27, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --

Extended power reserve is a major priority for horology connoisseurs as well as a quest for watchmakers.

The MERIDIIST INFINITE provides perpetual stand-by time through an invisible component built into the main screen and thanks to the exclusive partnership with the very innovative French company Sunpartner Technologies, creator of the Wysips® technology. Behind the sapphire screen lies a lens substrate with electric conductors and, behind this, another layer of completely transparent photovoltaic cells and then comes the LCD screen - all together acting invisibly and automatically. A hybrid charging capacity allows automatic charging under certain natural or artificial light sources, even when the battery is empty.

TAG Heuer stands for "Technologie d'Avant-Garde", and the MERIDIIST INFINITE perpetuates a great tradition that came before it.

This revolutionary communication instrument will be launched worldwide in July 2014, in Limited Edition of 1911 pieces made with titanium grade 5 and carbon, in TAG Heuer boutiques, luxury mobile boutiques and selected Watch & Jewellery retailers.
