Apparently not content with chronograph speeds of 1/1,000th of a second, TAG Heuer have gone ahead and built a new concept watch, the Mikrogirder which has the ability to time events to 1/2,000th of a second. But that's not even the most surprising element of the watch. It accomplishes all this without the use of a balance wheel or even that Pendulum concept we saw a few years ago. The movement developed for the Mikrogirder uses a vibrating linear oscillator to attain its freakishly fast pace of 1,000hz. What's a linear oscillator? We hope to have an answer to that one soon.
