Kingsman: The Golden Circle Director, Writer and Producer
Matthew Vaughn.

TAG Heuer Connected.

by the agents in the movie: pink gold lugs and an elegant
leather strap with Kingsman print. The watch comes with a
second strap in orange velvet, inspired by the iconic orange
velvet smoking jacket worn in the film by Taron Egerton.
The key difference between the Kingsman Special Edition and
the core collection is in its dial functions. Available in either
midnight blue or grey, it bears the Kingsman inscription and
logo at 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock. At 10:10, the dial vibrates for 10
