TAG Heuer’s Connected Watch is the Official Watch of The Kingsman. In the new film, the Kingsman agents will all be fitted with TAG Heuer watches. The TAG Heuer Connected will also be included in the Kingsman collection on sale on Mr Porter.

In 2015, Kingsman: The Secret Service introduced the world to Kingsman—an independent, international intelligence agency operating at the highest level of discretion, whose ultimate goal is to keep the world safe.

In Kingsman: The Golden Circle, our heroes face a new challenge. When their headquarters are destroyed and the world is held hostage, their journey leads them to the discovery of an allied spy organization in the US called Statesman, dating back to the day they were both founded. Kingsman: The Golden Circle stars original cast members Colin Firth, Taron Egerton, and Mark Strong, and introduces new cast members Julianne Moore, Halle Berry, Pedro Pascal, Channing Tatum and Jeff Bridges.

"Kingsman means explosions, action, laughter, and, of course, elegance", said Jean-Claude Biver, CEO of TAG Heuer and Chairman of the Watch Division of LVMH Group. "Its cast of young actors is the stuff of dreams—gentleman who aren't afraid of anything. This is a perfect fit with TAG Heuer's target market. This partnership will help us to get even closer to the younger generation."

"For Kingsman: The Golden Circle, we needed a smart watch for our agents", Director Matthew Vaughn added. "We looked at the different options available, but none of them were elegant enough for a Kingsman. Then I saw an interview on Bloomberg TV with Jean-Claude Biver about his connected watch, and it became immediately obvious; the Kingsman agents would wear the TAG Heuer Connected."

The watches worn by the characters play a decisive role in Kingsman: The Golden Circle, pivotal to the success of the Kingsman agents' missions. They needed watches that could withstand anything, be it underwater shots, fight scenes or stunts.
