Now, the company has taken advantage of the opening of Baselworld 2015, the Congress of the world’s largest watch making, to officially announce the imminent arrival of their first smartwatch market. Although not yet know its specifications, TAG Heuer has confirmed who will be their companions: Intel and Google.

The former is responsible for providing the processor to mount the clock and the second will contribute Wear Android operating system to give life. Yes, it seems that Android Wear reach luxury watches, a very smart move by Google to rival the Apple Watch, especially with the Edition model for $ 10,000.

Although still no details on the smartwatch is not known, since the first rumors suggest it will be very similar to its current flagship model and Carrera. Of course, incorporating operating system Android Wear leads us to believe that will have a full touch screen, thus dispensing with the mechanical hands and the traditional board. If confirmed, TAG Heuer is the first Swiss manufacturer that completely ignores the mechanical system.

The TAG Heuer smartwatch have a very similar design to the current model Carrera. The company announced that it is first intelligent watch hit the market in late 2015, which is expected to leave knowing every detail over the coming months. Of course, we should not expect a precisely affordable price, so it would not be surprising that cost the same or even more than the Apple Watch Edition.
