While TAG Heuer has not yet shared any specific metrics surrounding these benefits compared to other conventional hairspring setups (be it steel, alloys like Nivarox, or the more modern silicon used by Rolex, Omega, Patek, and of course, Ulysse Nardin), they have been able to industrialize the technology to the point of including it in a pair of 50-piece limited editions that are backed by a five-year warranty. While silicon is already amagnetic, I’m very interested to see some specs comparing this novel carbon solution against silicon for shock resistance and timekeeping performance, especially given the somewhat brittle nature of silicon.
