TAG Heuer pays tribute to Muhammad Ali
La Cote des Montres - October 30th, 2016

 
 

A Tribute to Muhammad Ali
 

 
 

Muhammad Ali is responsible for some of the most legendary moments in sports and civil rights history. More than 50 years after he emerged as a Gold Medallist at the 1960 Rome Olympics, Ali remains one of the most recognizable men in history.

 
His incomparable work ethic, revolutionary techniques, and fearlessness towards standing up for his beliefs, all contribute to the legend that was Muhammad Ali. Among his countless awards and accolades, he was named Sports Illustrated’s “Sportsman of the Century,” GQ’s “Athlete of the Century,” was a United Nations Messenger of Peace, and has received the Presidential Medal of Freedom, and the Amnesty International Lifetime Achievement Award. 

 
This timepiece, created by TAG Heuer, was inspired by the famous Ring-Master stopwatch introduced in 1957 and now on display in the TAG Heuer museum. The Ring-Master was equipped with 7 rings, each one featuring a different scale, including one for boxing.


 
Two graduations were possible: one for professional fights with 15 rounds of 3 minutes with 1 minute rest, and one for amateur fights with 15 rounds of 2 minutes each with 1 minute rest.

 
The special series "Tribute to Muhammad Ali" steel will soon be available in a selection of TAG Heuer stores worldwide.
