5.0 out of 5 stars
Love my new Tag Heuer, June 4, 2008
This watch is great for automotive racing drivers and fans. The split time functions are just awesome. I am not sure if I made the right choice on the rubber band though. Tag Heuer states in the owner's manual that prolonged users should choose a metallic band over the rubber. I just preferred the sportier look of the rubber. People should also know that the large red sweeping second hand is part of the stop watch functions not constantly sweeping as part of the time keeping function. The smaller red second hand is the constant sweeping time keeper. So the large red second hand stays idle at 12 o'clock when stop watch functions are not in use. That just proves however that sport/racing comes first with this watch. Lastly the box is almost as impressive as the watch. Remove the watch "pillow" and it's a great place to store your watch when not wearing it.

Very nice and good swiss watch, December 30, 2007
This is a nice sport watch.
Is really beautiful and good watch.
If you want a good watch with swiss mechanic and look very nice with a sport touch this is perfectly for you.
I had a tag heuer formula one for 5 years and I can say that it is a very good watch, never had a problem with it, I only changed its battery one time. I almost cry when someone stole me this watch.
I bought this new one just one month ago, and I like it so much.
Kimi, Alonso and Hamilton use it!!!!!
Just see the next link and take your decision.

All the Tag heuer watches are good machines, you will not have any problem with these.

Believe me, this watch is worth. I love it!!, October 15, 2009
How do I start?, Well, I must say I love watches, I'm not a rich person but I have a collection of some watches like Swatch, Seiko, Stuhrling (some of them bought from Amazon); so I decided to buy a luxury watch this time, I mean a really "luxury" watch. I was thinking in a Rolex, maybe a used one, but then I went to a jewerly and watched all the watches: Rolex, Omega, Tissot, Cartier and so. They were all very good looking watches but for some reason they were old very classic looking (made for an older person like my dad as I'm only 23), often looking gold or silver. Then I went to the Tag Heuer section, without knowing too much about the brand, and like a thunder from the sky I immediately fell in love with all those watches, they were so fashion, inspired in beautiful cars, the colors, the form, beautiful, there's no comparision with the picture you see in Amazon and having the real watch in your hand like I did in that jewerly. Also I watched an add in that jewerly where president Obama also uses this watches. After falling in love with this watch and realizing that one of my favorite persons (Obama) also likes this watches I decided to buy this watch, had a lot of problems with my dad to get the money (borrow some from mom, asked for my birthday gift earlier than expected :)
but finally he agreed and I bought it from Amazon. I bought the model with the rubber black strap because I'm so bored with the omnipresent common silver strap/band. Also the strap goes perfect with the black dial and bezel color! They're made for each other.
After some days of impatience I received the watch, packed in a huge box (it is a very expensive delicate piece), opened the Amazon box and after digging in the protecting bubbles I found a beautiful box, with the Tag Heuer logo printed above, every border of the box is sewed, every detail of the box is just perfect, this guys payed so much attention even to small details. I opened the box and found a leather case for the instructions guide (man, a wonderful leather case just for the instructions manual!), the instruction manual is perfectly written in many languages (my other watch has a manual but the other languages are just "computer translations"), well, this is not the case, I speak english, spanish and some german and I checked the spanish translation and is greatly done. This guys didn't miss a single detail. A single ortographic mistake in the manuals, Wow!
After opening the smaller box there is the watch: beautiful, it has a wonderful unidirectional bezel that moves very softly but accurately and makes a clicking sound when you move it, the case is also wonderful with Tag Heuer printed on one side, but the dial gets the first prize, so wonderfully planned, even the date is placed lower so you can see it when it's 3 o'clock. I have delicately unscrewed the crown and it's so smooth, unbelievable, you move the crown counter-clockwise and the date changes very-very slowly unlike any of my other watches. The same with the hour, it moves so slowly, so fine...
The chrono is perfect, I mean "perfect", when the 1/10 second marker stops at half second 1/10, the red second hand stops just in the middle of one second and the next one. Wow, that's precission, I've never seen this details in other watches.
Forget to mention that the crown is also beautifully designed with the Tag logo, and that the chrono buttons make a smooth pleasant click sound when you press them...
Overall guys, this watch looks beautiful in my wrist, I LOVE the black color (it combines perfectly with my black car, my black iPhone hehehe), the strap is beautiful with a big TAG HEUER logo printed so everyone can see you have ONE.
I really recommend this watch, in a regular jewerly it costs more than 1,200 $ so Amazon's price is really a bargain for such a beauty!
