Inspired by the brand’s willingness to push beyond the edge in watchmaking, this campaign celebrates their proud watchmaking history and this collection in an explosion of saturated colours.
Shot by young Swiss filmmaker Jonas Egi, American waterman Kai Lenny, freediving champion Julie Gautier and diver Robin George discover their limits.
Filmed in various locations globally, from Nice in France to Nazareth in Portugal and Hawaii, breathtaking sport scenes showcase the ability of these outstanding athletes to defy nature.
When you push the boundaries of what’s possible, time stops. Or rather, it slows down.

TAG Heuer firmly believes that by moving beyond your comfort zone, you achieve the best version of yourself and this is a philosophy that isn’t exclusive to sport champions.
The idea behind the campaign is to take the customer on the journey beyond the edge of extreme sports. We want to inspire our audience by highlighting those special moments when world class athletes go beyond their limits and enter new dimensions.

Beyond the edge is that extreme point in time when there’s no way back, where you’re 100 per cent committed and you have no option but to believe in yourself – totally.
It’s beyond you, you feel powerful forces at work around you. Afterwards, it feels a bit like you’ve been to the moon. You see things you never noticed before.
