The watch was exactly as represented and arrived right on time. The watch did not come with the Tag Heuer authentication certificate which was a huge disappointment since this was a gift and can't be repaired by a Tag retailer without this authenticity. The only warranty is through Amazon. I had to jump through many hoops and speak to many reps at Amazon just to find that the card was intentionally missing. Although I'm pretty sure this watch is authentic, I didn't like not knowing that it wouldn't have the original warranty, before I purchased it. Other on-line retailers (including one through Amazon) would have provided this card.

I'm not a golfer so I was a little turned off to this watch at first but if you're like me and hate taking your watch on and off because it bugs you throughout the day, this one is well worth it. The band is made of silicon as opposed to rubber so it flexes with you throughout the day. What makes this watch unique is the "band buckle" is built into the watch casing, giving you maximum comfort. I've never had to take it off while driving or typing since the band never knocks against anything.

In response to another review here about there not being a certificate of authenticity, she is right. However, with Amazon, you get their 5-year warranty and pay about 40% less than you would at a jeweler or in the mall. At one store I was quoted $1250 + tax and they were "throwing in" a 2-year warranty. The box, which is hefty, includes everything you would get except the little card but in my opinion, you get much more value with Amazon.

If you're looking for a really comfortable watch, give this one a shot. I think most people would be pleasantly surprised by its feel.

I purchased this watch as a gift for my husband who is an avid golfer. He wore it only on the weekends. The band broke within 6 months of purchase. (They advertise it as being indestructible). I sent it back to the Authorized TAG repair in NewYork and they wanted $200 to repair it because they said Amazon is not an authorized dealer. I would of never purchased the watch from Amazon had I known that. I beleive the watch was defective. Amazon would not repair the watch either.

Somewhat pricey....certainly....the unique style and function are worth it. This watch exudes Tag quality...the build and the
mechanism are excellent...the "golf" dimpled face creates an
eyecatching optical illusion when viewed at various angles. No
regrets whatsoever...just do it.

The watch itself is a great watch, good quality and looks nice. The only issue with the watch is that the strap doesn't keep snug against the wrist (which is the purpose of the watch). After a few days wear it becomes loose and you have to adjust it to keep it snug. But overall, it's a nice watch.

I've bought this watch February 2011 when I was in NY, and after 2 months I noticed the watch was defective.
Went to a Tag Heuer Authorized Dealer here in Brazil, and as the International Warrant Card sent by Amazon is completely blank (because Amazon.com is not a Tag Heuer Authorized Dealer), I would have to pay to have my watch repaired (otherwise, I would not have to pay a dime, to get the watch repaired in any Authorized Dealer around the globe).
The diagnostic of the problem was lack of lubrification and some damaged pieces in the internal mechanism (and that was a brand new watch, which I really doubt Tag Heuer would allow something like this to be sold). Felt like the watches are some kind of "second line", or watches that did not passed the quality control; and like so, they don't have an International Warrant.
To use the Amazon.com warrant, all the costs to send/receive the watch is on your own.
The worst of all is that Amazon.com ask you to send the watch to a company called Swinford Jewelers (in Kentucky), which by the way, it is not a Tag Heuer Authorized Dealer (not listed in Tag Heuer website).
I definitely do not recommend buying Tag Heuer watches from Amazon.com.

My Tag Heuer Golf watch keeps perfect time as long as I don't wear it. It has never kept time if I wear it. I have returned the watch to Tag Heuer in NJ four times. Today it was returned again fron NJ and in the less then 12 hours of wear it has lost 7 minutes. I love the style of the watch and hate the fact that Tag Heuer refuses to do the right thing and replace the watch. Don't buy the watch.

Obviously, I expected good things from this watch or I would not have ordered it. However, the watch has surpassed even my lofty expectations. This watch did cause me some uncomfortable feelings as soon as I got it removed from the very nice box it comes in. One of the first things you have to do is to trim the band to fit your wrist. It may only be me, but I was a little uneasy about taking scissors to something I just received that is also not the most inexpensive thing around. Although, I took my time and trimmed the band (actually a couple of times) to find the right fit, the watch has been extremely comfortable. The watch is wonderful about staying in place and I forget it is even there. I play a lot of golf and tennis, which has always meant that my watch had to come off. Not so with this watch. I have played both sports since receipt of the watch and left it on just to see if it was a hindrance of any degree. I can honestly say that I never even noticed that I was wearing the watch. It did exactly as advertised and stayed out of my way. I am also appreciating it at work when at the computer. I cannot say enough good things about how nice the band is and how well it does not interfere with whatever activity I find myself doing. If you are looking for a really nice, very attractive watch that has a nice snug fitting band that will not interfere with whatever you want to do, then I would highly recommend this watch to you. My only regret is not buying mine sooner!

I have been wearing this watch for two years now. Overall it is a great watch. Good size but not too big or too heavy.

Only two complaints:

1. The watchband is expensive to replace ($170) and most jewlers do not carry it in stock. The watchband is adjusted by a clamp the can cut into the band if not done carefully.

2. After about 15 months, the watch quit working. The second hand kept trying to move but was "stuck". It cost me about $100 to have it fixed.

Even given the expiernce of the band and the repair, I highly recommend it.

very useful for what I need...wore a rolex while playing golf but it couldn't handle the sudden movements and this works perfectly!
