Amazon.com Product Description

Designed to meet the demanding criteria of professional divers, the durable and sporty Aquaracer combines precise timekeeping technology with TAG Heuer's signature prestige styling. The 41 mm brushed steel case showcases a black dial with a full-color TAG Heuer logo and an automatic date calendar at the 4:30 position. Chronograph subdials at 2 and 10 o'clock display the 1/10 second counter and 12-hour counter respectively, and an additional subdial at 6 o'clock registers the seconds. Luminous hands and hour markers, a chronograph seconds hand, and a red chronograph minute hand with an arrow tip are all designed for optimal radiance and readability. The dial is framed by a unidirectional rotating bezel with an Arabic numeral scale for timing dives and other limited events. The watch presents on a handsome and durable brushed steel link bracelet that features an extension system for divers and fastens with a fold over clasp with safety.

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.

Much has been said about this watch and you can learn a lot more on the TAG HEUER website.

What may not be obvious though is this watch is somewhat unique in the Aquaracer Quartz Chrono series, in that it has a brushed finished throughout. The only polished items are the pushers and the crown. All band links and even the bolsters on the bezel are fine brushed - which gives the watch a subdued look.

The other two watches in this series (blue face and white face) have polished center links on the band and polished bezel bolsters. If you are looking for a little more blingy look, then this model may not be for you, check out the other two. Don't be fooled though - this is an understated style that still exudes quality and class.

The good news about this model is that you will worry less about scratches. This watch is no hangar queen - it should be worn liberally while at play.

As usual with TAG, the fit & finish are superb. All materials are of the highest quality. Amazon delivered the watch overnight and in brand new, unused condition.

It's a fine addition to any collection.

Love the watch. Love the service. Really love the price. A couple of months ago, I bought another watch from Amazon. Once I got it, I changed my mind on the style and returned it to Amazon. No problems. Easy return. All my money back. Then later, I decided to buy a more expensive watch (the Tag) and bought it knowing that Amazon would back it if I was not happy for any reason. Also, I felt secure that Amazon would not risk their reputation in selling me a replica/fake Tag. I bought it and love the watch even more than I thought. I like the styling and the brand. I am definitely keeping this one. This is my first experience in buying from Amazon and I will plan on more future purchases. What more could you ask for in an online store?

I just turned 50 and decided, on a whim in lieu of a Porsche, to invest in an upscale timepiece to quench my midlife crisis thirst.

While I am on my third Casio dive watch over the past 20 years, I wanted something with some sport as well as class. I wanted something I could wear when I dive (the bracelet has an extension mechanism to help get it over a wetsuit or gloved hand), with creased jeans and a polo or a tuxedo. I have to say, this chronograph fits the bill (even though it is way too nice to dive with). It is sporty, but elegant. Eye catching but not in your face. And the TAG color logo just adds to the aura of this timepiece and the TAG brand.

TAG does not consider Amazon an "authorized" reseller so the TAG two-year warranty is not available. But a warranty of sorts from Amazon is. I decided to take the chance. The same watch from an authorized dealer is several hundred dollars heavier.

I'm happy that I made the plunge. TAG and hybrid cars are the wave of the future...
