After combing different websites and Authorized dealers, as well as having prior Tag's, I have a decent sense of what Tag Heuer has to offer, as well as different price points. I was looking to upgrade to something in the one thousand to 1.5 thousand price range, and this watch was on the short list. I decided on this one because of Amazon's 5 yr warranty, automatic movement (which frequently runs $2K+), and slick, refined looks.

Definitely wanted something that wasn't too bulky, but still was relatively masculine. Just a few things that I can share with all:

PRO's:
-nice bracelet, and very adjustable (with a micro adjustment in the clasp)
-automatic movement at a decent price
-waterproof to 200m
-bracelet doesn't catch any hairs
-simple, elegant design to dress up or down

CON's:
-needs a break-in period (I almost returned mine, but you need to wear it for 2 weeks straight to get all the automatic mechanisms lubricated)
- +/- a few seconds a day
-Not a chronometer (which is "certified") - but this adds hundreds of dollars more at ? benefit
-the edge of the face/bezel is a polished metal, and I can envision it getting scratched (so, if you are rough on your watches, you might want to pick a style with a rotating bezel to "protect" the face)
-the LINK bracelet is tough to adjust by yourself, so you need to go to a jeweler/watch store to adjust it
-as with all automatics you need to wear it at least once every 2-3 days (or wind it up every 2 days) to keep from having to reset the time

Another tip - during the break in period, make sure you wind up the watch (turn clockwise) when you first get it, and perhaps another time or two during the first week - this gave it an extra oomph to get things going.

My wife gave me this watch as an engagement present. I love it! It looks good whether you wear jeans/shorts or a suit. Very versatile.

I purchased an aquaracer for my husband for our anniversary in May 2009. At that time I also purchased an extended warranty. The watch started to lose time and over the course of several weeks would be 10 to 15 minutes slower than actual time. We have sent the watch back twice now to be recalibrated only to have the same thing happen. At this point we have requested that the watch be replaced and Tag refuses to even discuss it. I would not recommend anyone deal with Tag.

My wife purchased this watch for my 40th birthday in 2007. Since that time it has been returned for repair 2 time (each about 6 weeks gone) for the same problem, keeps time too fast and won't hold it "charge"...Yes, I know its an automatic watch so I guess I mean that it won't hold its "winding". Also, the last time it went it, the twist lock mechanism on the stem was not working because I had to reset the time so often....Guess what, it is going back in the next week or so AGAIN for the 3rd time (same problems...won't hold charge, now it is loosing time 2 minutes PER DAY, and the stem is a problem again). This is completely unacceptable for a watch of this price. I think that Amazon should step up and do something with the 5 year warranty I got on this watch and either give me another watch or refund the money....This watch, which I thought was a lemon appears to have the same problem as another reviewer on this site, so I WOULD BEWARE.

To be fair, I will say the watch is beautiful and very comfortable BUT it must be able to tell time first!

I ordered this watch for my husband's Christmas present. It arrived as promised, in perfect condition, and he loves it.

This watch is worth the money. It doesn't have the status of a Rolex but it does have a status of it's own. I bought this watch for my son and he loves it.

I order this wonderfull watch and received in 3 days.
I was very happy, but after 2 months of use it starts to go ahead for 5 minutes per week, so I send it back for warranty repair. I am still waiting for my watch...

I received it after six weeks on March 15th and send it back on march 29 because of the same reason, I don't know wtah to think now ... maybe skip this watch.
I'm still waiting (again), and I hope this time I got it well repaired.

Well, I receive it after another 6 weeks, and the watch does noy keep the time, again.
I call amazon warranty and they say that I have to send it back to repair.
This is not the kind of service that I expect.
So here I go again ....
