The shoot took place in May in a photo studio in Barcelona, with Ronaldo in a very relaxed mood. This was the first TAG Heuer publicity shoot for the three-times winner of the Ballon d’Or. The concept was developed to reflect the brand's motto and campaign slogan, #dontcrackunderpressure.
The message: Ronaldo doesn’t crack under pressure. He follows his own path. Defines his own rules. He challenges himself and the others.
At BASELWORLD2015 in March, TAG Heuer launched its first special edition CR7 chronometers – black and football pitch-green – created in close collaboration with its ambassador.
3 questions for Cristiano Ronaldo:
What’s the best advice you could give someone else?
Make your own rules, set a goal and follow it through… no one can do it for you.
Which is more important, talent or passion? Discipline or skill?
All is important. If you’re not passionate about what you do, you won’t move forward and you can never reach your potential. But you also need to be as strong mentally as physically, and you must work constantly to create your own opportunities for success.
