TAG Heuer #MondayMonday - Santa Claus Rides Again!

We need sparring partners in life.  And a good sparring partner will give as good as they get.  Jean-Claude Biver is perhaps the last true giant of watch making.  Hayek and Stern the Younger have the benefit of fortuitous birth certificates, but Mr. Biver came from nowhere and over time has established himself as the last true legend of watch brand directors.  And I say that sincerely, he has done amazing things in his tenures with Blancpain, Omega, Hublot and of late Tag Heuer.  

But regular readers will also know that what makes your old pal Henki tick is good deeds!  And I congratulate Mr. Biver and his team for undertaking to do a particularly good deed!  In fact not just one!  So as I've said before, Santa Claus is alive and well, and working at Tag Heuer!

Every first Monday of the month will provide another opportunity to buy something cool, and to help benefit a worthy cause!  The first #MondayMonday will benefit Make a Wish of Switzerland.

Make a Wish is not just any other feel good charity.  At their heart, they exist to to help create a lifetime full of happy memories for children and families that will never have the benefit of a full lifetime to experience them.  It is a noble mission, and for this I sincerely thank Mr. Biver and his team for supporting them in their efforts with this fantastic initiative - Chapeau!  Un grand merci!

In all honesty, this is a pretty neat idea and I give credit to Tag Heuer for thinking outside of the watch box.  I am going to simply let them tell you about it in their own words:
