Amazon.com Product Description

Designed with professional divers in mind, the Aquaracer Automatic (model CAF2110.BA0815) from TAG Heuer combines state-of-the-art timekeeping technology with sporty, prestige styling. Equipped with calibre 16 automatic movement, this watch winds itself with the natural motion of your wrist and does not require a battery. It features a round black dial with luminescent hands and markers, a monochrome TAG Heuer logo, and day-and-date calendar at the three o'clock position. Three subdials display 1/10 second, small seconds, and 30-minute registers. A stationary inner bezel, with a seconds ruler, frames the dial, surrounded by a unidirectional rotating outer bezel with a dive time scale and a luminous marker. Set in a 44.3mm (1.74-inch) brushed steel case that fits comfortably to the contours of your wrist, this watch presents on a handsome and durable steel link bracelet with brushed and polished pieces. The bracelet features an extension system for divers and fastens with a fold-over clasp with push button.

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.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best automatic ever made - Built like a tank, October 10, 2008

This review is from: TAG Heuer Men's CAF2010.BA0815 Aquaracer Automatic Chronograph Watch (Watch)

I have always liked automatic watches. I own automatic watches from Seiko, Citizen, Invicta and Tag. The Tag is built like a tank. Things I do not like about my CAF2010: Runs a tad faster - gains about 4 minutes every month - I have to reset the time every month, or find myself going early to meetings sometimes when I dont have my blackberry to dictate time. But thats the case with almost any automatic watch. This one's going to be with me for a lifetime. You learn to live with it - if I wanted digital precision, I would've bought a digital watch at a mere one hundredth of the cost of this watch - but its not about that.

5.0 out of 5 stars TAG Heuer Aquaracer Review, May 30, 2009

This review is from: TAG Heuer Men's CAF2010.BA0815 Aquaracer Automatic Chronograph Watch (Watch)

After owning an Ebel Swiss quartz watch for a few years now, I noticed the TAG Heuer Aquaracer model CAF2015. I ended up going with the silver on silver and diamond bezel. After careful scrutiny and precise decision making, I decided to part with the money and go for the quality. There is a reason why somebody, somewhere, coined the phrase "...you get what you pay for...". This is a time piece which is remarkably well manufactured. The TAG Aquaracer is not only aesthetically pleasing, it is pretty darn heavy. Some may argue that it is rather bulky, however it is not a light weight knock-off. The watch does protrude out quite a bit when wearing on the wrist, however it certainly makes a statement. If you are a flashy-type personality that wants "all eyes on you", then this is the timepiece for you. The coolest part is this watch can be worn with casual attire as well as a fine, designer suit and tie. Well worth the money if you can afford it. Trust me, as a frugal consumer that does hours of researching before making any major purchase, I can assure anyone that if you are looking for a gorgeous, well put together product, this is the real deal. Good luck if you are on the fence with potentially purchasing this item.

5.0 out of 5 stars Quality, Looks, and Functionality, August 13, 2008

This review is from: TAG Heuer Men's CAF2010.BA0815 Aquaracer Automatic Chronograph Watch (Watch)

It is an outstanding watch with classic looks designed and made by a well known reputable company. All materials used inside and out are of high quality, and the look and feel of the watch reflect that. The bracelet is sturdy as is the clasp and the timepiece itself has a considerable weight to it. I am not going to go into an in-depth technical discussion about the inner workings and type of movement Tag Heuer uses. You can do a search and find detailed discussions in various watch forums about the assorted Swiss brands and who thinks who is better, which is a true Swiss movement watch, who is COSC certified, etc. All in all, Tag Heuer (IMO) has designed a quality timepiece that can be worn with a suit and tie or jeans and a tee shirt and everything in-between. If you are considering this watch (or any other for that matter) I suggest you view your selection in person before buying and try it on for size. Some people buy online sight unseen, and for a purchase such as this, I would say do your research and view the timepieces in person. I did not buy this watch from Amazon or online, but from a jeweler. I have owned the watch for 3 months now and have had no issues or complaints. I would defiantly buy from Tag Heuer again.
