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 was a little upset to receive the watch, which was a regular Quartz but quickly fell in love with it. Since then, Amazon has corrected the description. You will have to take the watch to your local watch shop to get the links removed - I got it done for $10. Its so worth not buying at department stores, you save on taxes. The caveat on the 5 year guarantee is that it replaces the standard 2 year Tag Heuer international guarantee, i.e. if you are outside the US and your watch dies on you - you have no recourse. The white face is unique and everyone who has seen it has commented on it. I work in corporate America, so its truly great for wear at work or casually. I havent tried any under water stunts yet, so cant testify to the water levels. If you are trying to stay under a $1000, this is a great 'first nice watch' purchase. I ideally would have gotten a Breitling or an Omega but am happy with this one - as its less common amongst the NYC yuppies.

This is simply the nicest looking watch I've ever owned. My wife and I both have "Tag's" and we couldn't be happier. This men's watch has a white face which differs from all the other blue and silver faces out there. No regrets here!
