The TAG Heuer Story

TAG Heuer traces its roots to the small Swiss village of St-Imier where, in 1860, a watchmaker named Edouard Heuer opened his first shop. His vision was to create remarkable timepieces that pushed the envelope of innovation and precision. The company's reputation grew, and Heuer's first patent for a chronograph mechanism in 1882 was followed by a long list of achievements: the first stopwatch accurate to 1/100 of a second, the first dashboard stopwatch for race cars, the first miniature electronic timekeeping device accurate to 1/1000th of a second, and the first automatic movement with a microrotor, to name just a few.

Over the years, Heuer's reputation for gold-standard precision earned the company the privilege of providing official timing services for a number of world-class competitive sporting events, including the Olympic Games, the FIS Ski World Cup, and the FIA Formula 1 World Championships. To this day, TAG Heuer maintains a close association with the world of competitive sports and enjoys a devoted following among sports celebrities and enthusiasts. In 1985, Heuer joined the TAG (Techniques D'Avant-Garde) group, and the TAG Heuer name and logo were created. Now one of the most recognized and sought-after watch brands in the world, TAG Heuer continues its reputation of innovative design and technological excellence, creating prestigious timepieces that are always at the cutting edge of precision, reliability and style.

I have owned it for over two years now, abused it in every possible way, hit it with carbide tools from time to time and no a single scratch. It is a great buy, at a great price. Highly recommended. Go Kimi, show them what a ferrari can do.

This review is from: TAG Heuer Men's CAC1110.BA0850 Formula 1 Quartz Watch (Watch)

I bought this watch from Amazon in 2005 for a great price. Was very pleased with my purchase. I knew then that Amazon is not an authrized re seller and they would offer their own warranty for 2 years. I also checked that certain things like the crown and strap were not covered under the amazon warranty. These things are also not covered under the original TAG warranty one would get if the watch was bought from an authorized reseller like Jared. Fast forward to March 2008 and I realized that one of the buttons operating the chronograph was shaky at the crown. This not being covered under warranty I took it to a TAG store to get it fixed on my own accord.

Here is what I found...Since this watch is bought from Amazon its unique number is not present in the TAG database. Every time a TAG dealer has to order a spare part for a watch , it can only be ordered against the unique number. Based on the unique number a spare part is sent to the service shop which matches that watch exactly. There are variations and so the spare part is not generic.

So as per the TAG service center I am stuck with a watch that I can only send back to Amazon.....and maybe they might be able to repair the crown....not sure...DILEMMA!!!!!!!
