Tags quality never slipped they just attempted to branch out into different markets and the brand identity got lost, too many colabs and celebrities trying to find the younger market which alienated their core audience and racing heritage, hopefully this marks a return to form.

dump the "tag" and change the name to something else. otherwise people will never take it seriously as a luxury watch brand

I’ve been looking at this watch at the Tag boutique and I’ve watched every online video on it that is out there. One thing that Teddy’s channel doesn’t always get the credit it deserves is the quality of the video. The close up shots of the movement on this watch, and in particular the way the vertical clutch interacts with the chronograph minutes wheel, are simply fantastic. Well done, Teddy and team.

I've been wearing TAG Heuer watches for about 30 years. I currently own 5 and they are very well built and look great. I love the 40mm Aquaracer 200, the new Calibre 5 and this Glassbox chrono! Keep up the good work, TAG Heuer!

Absolutely love the look of the glassbox. Tag at its very best. Modern, swish, chrono with great specs and a vintage vibe to die for. Yes Tag. 😊

I like very much what Tag Heuer is doing these days. Haven't seen one of these in the metal yet and I would definitely like to compare the blue and black dial variants. I own a Monaco myself, but the Carrera also surely deserves a significant spot in the pantheon of legendary chronographs.

27 yeast ago I bought my first watch a Tag Kirium, which I still have and wear. It still works perfectly. I have bought several other brands through the years, but when I saw this new release I had to get one. Went in for the blue came out with the reverse panda. Both beauty’s. Always been a fan of Tag Heuer. It’s the brand that got me loving watches.

A "watches of Succession video" would be awesome!

I think their chronographs have always been great. These new Glassbox models are really handsome and look to be yet another set of great chronographs added to the brand's catalog. I would consider one and look forward to future offerings from TAG Heuer.

Thank you for share Teddy! Great detailed video.

I love my tags. Got my first in 1998. My carrera Panamericana is my favourite. Line it up with any other watch in the $10-$15k range and the look still holds its own. I’m a huge Porsche guy and the carrera line just speaks to me. That’s what this is all about.

Thank you for all your work and dedication. I have been watching your videos for quite some times. Love them Cheers from Canada

I've always been a fan of Tag, so I suppose I'm a bit biased, but I really like this watch. It's a lovely blend of the vintage Tag and a modern aesthetic (if you can call it that). Love it

BRAVO Tag! They have been doing a great job of late and this is a perfect example of their growth and innovation.

Tried this on a few weeks ago at the Tag boutique here in Singapore, it wears and looks perfect! I'm not a big fan of chronographs, but this stole my heart. It's modern yet looks classy and vintage, and it is built so well! Personally, I like the black dial option with the date window at the 12, which is something I've not seen before.

Excellent episode.

Always liked Tag, and some of their new designs are awesome. They have nice case finishing work as well

This is really an elegant watch. It has almost a vintage vibe. I have a ceramic Daytona and I'd still consider getting one of these.

Before I was really into collecting watches I bought a Tag F1 quartz while living in Germany, and let me tell you I beat the heck out of that thing as my daily watch for a good 10 years and it’s still running perfect to this day with only 1 battery change. Since then I also acquired an Aquaracer automatic and while it’s very very nice, it just doesn’t feel as solid and robust like my F1 is.

Bidirectional winding is a huge step forward. Well done TAG Heuer!

Great looking chronograph!

Love it… the crystal looks amazing👍🏻👍🏻 great Job

I’m new to this watch obsession, and you have been hugely influential in my early education on watches, so thanks for that Teddy! Here’s a request for a video subject- I’m a huge car guy, and I want to focus my watch collecting on brands and models tied to racing and cars. There are the obvious choices like the Carrera and Speedmaster, etc, but this would be a cool video as I’m sure there are others out there. There is a close tie between car and watch enthusiasts (we love machines with spinning, tight tolerance components), so it would be interesting for you to dig into that space.

Well done watch, everything is well thought out

Great video Teddy. TAG on the whole is just hated on for no good reason. I have 2 and they are as hard as nails with brilliant build quality and longevity. Big fan here

This Carrera looks fantastic! TAG is on "my list" but never could truly find one to my liking other than the Carrera (previously the all silver). With this one, it may be "the one"! Thanks for sharing and congratz in advance for hitting 800K Subs very shortly!!! (at the time of my comment of course ;-) ) Hope you have many years of continued success 😊👍🏼

I just bought this watch last week and couldn't be happier with it! Originally was looking at a speedy since I bought a Mcqueen Monaco last year and didn't want to look like a brand ambassador for Tag, but I had no good reason to not buy another timepiece from them and my gut told me to go with the Carrera.

Yes. Beauty. Teddy great honest review. Most young adult watch reviewers “KZreadr” need to follow your approach. You appreciate many watches for what they are at all prices ranges regardless of brands. Hopefully many of these young people watching and making immature comments will learn to appreciate watches with your same type of approach. Guess maturity takes time for some.

I've been staring at this exact watch through my local AD's window. I feel Iike I'm not allowed to like it, but somehow I do! It's gorgeous!

As soon as I saw this I saw a Tag I wanted to own. Both models will have their adherents.

These releases made me get my TAG’s out of the drawer and start wearing them again. Like many here TAG was my first “real watch” and I’d love to see TAG rise to form again.

Your videos keep getting better and better, Teddy. Keep up the good work!

Hey Teddy. Please review the new Zenith Pilot big date flyback chornograph. I love the thoughtfulness behind the sound design and tactility of the pushers and date change. It should definitely be on your list of best chronographs for 2023! Also will you be collaborating with Ryan Gosling??

Beautiful piece. I kept seeing that slight scratch on the 1:00pm lug. 😁👍🏻

I love this watch. Striking looks, stylish and exudes quality. Definitely want to wear one. Will get it.

Gasp! A tag heuer review from teddy ❤

This and the new monaco skeleton are a hit for me. Especially being a F1 fan 🎉

Just got it last week and I love it.

Very classy watch. Love it

The dial looked awesome!

Really great watch with a very impressive movement

The fine details of this Tag Heuer I think are very well done and it hasn't been spoilt by putting it in an oversized case. 37 Jewels also in this movement. Really good to see watches coming down in size.

Wow. Teddy not throwing TAG Heuer under the bus. That's a change. I love this watch. Cost is up there in Speedmaster neighborhood, and this one is automatic and has date. Plusses for me.

Hey, @TeddyBaldassarre, one request for these "behind the desk" reviews would be that you take 5-7 seconds and add a, "What I'm wearing today ..." segment where you tell us what's on your wrist at the moment. Why? Because we get the see the watch from dozens of angles as you speak and articulate with your hands. Thanks in advance for any consideration, and keep up the delivery of this outstanding content, time and time again. Best watch channel on KZread, (minute & seconds) hands down!

TAG nailed it here and well deserved .... a wonderfull watch!

After seeing that PRX on white rubber I’m definitely making that my next watch. Blue waffle dial auto on bracelet and buying brown and black leather straps and orange, white and black rubber straps

A vintage white Heuer Carrera is used by Matt Damon as Carroll Shelby on Ford vs Ferrari

I wasn't really a big TH fan but this watch looks pretty good.

Great looking watch!

I hope this is not a one off with TAG, it looks like they are starting to get a streak going. I still like the Rindt re-release the best but I would give this Carrera a go if I could not get one when I am ready to buy another chronograph, I'm also a fan of the newer Aquaracer, with some of the releases over the past few years I'm looking at getting a few more TAG watches to go with the one I have already. Thank you Teddy for the excellent review and more on the brands that don't get much attention but still have interesting offerings if you can.

Such a great watch, I love the blue one.

Finally respect for TAG Heuer on this channel. So are you going to chose this watch on your next Kevin O'reilly shopping episode lol.

I really like this piece, but that green dial Limited Edition Carrera is my absolute favorite!

I was excited to see the Mariokart collaboration with Tag until i saw they were 44mm. I hope Tag is going back to normal sized watches. This watch will fit anyone, where a 44 (with a chunky design) will not. Love the design and size of this one!

The new aquaracer is a banger too. MUCH improved over last generation. If anyone is into divers please do not overlook it.

Great work from TAG HEUER. This CARRERA is beautiful. I hope that they will offer , at least, 3 colors of dial . For a man passioned by sports cars (like me) 1000 $ difference will not guide my choice. I will put side by side an OMEGA speedmaster and this new Carrera and my heart will decide. Thank you so much TEDDY.

I've tried on the black-dial version twice now and I think it's just perfect (the blue struck me as pretty bland). As you said, it looks like they've finally figured out how to bridge their past and present. I agree $6k seems like a lot for TAG at first, it seems to compare favorably to other chronographs with objectively similar specs and, if it matters, "heritage." This is still $3500 less than the cheapest Zenith chrono, over a grand less than the cheapest IWC chrono, and around the same price as the cheapest Speedmaster, but with a manual-winding movement. The only Breitling chronos at this price are the ones with ETA/Valjoux movements, so the TAG's price seems to track well enough in that world. One big concern, though, is that in your video, the hand on the minute-counter sub-dial looks like it's misaligned, and not hitting the markers. At $6k, that's not really acceptable QC.

From the first look I fell in love with this watch. I bought the blue a week ago.

Agreed.. it is a beauty.

Ever since I was a little kid Tag Heuer was in my life. Like many car enthusiasts of the 21st century, we love racing games. I would play Forza Motorsports 5 for hours. You would see that Tag branding on racecars in the game. Although I'm always a sucker for a Rolex product with my father having his sub for 20 years and counting. Tag always resonated with me as the brand that revolved around car people. Last year I picked up an Aquaracer 200 date automatic that I love. With the release of this.. you have given me another Tag to dream about. Great content as always.

They even sent me someone else watch one of the 4 repair visits because the serial numbers didn't match.

Wow a Tag video!

Love the black one

I tried this watch at the TAG boutique. I really like it. Teddy usually tests the movement, but not this time? Either way I have to decide between this watch and a Briteling chronograph. I am leaning to the Briteling.

I went to the TAG Heuer Boutique to see this watch in person. Truly one of the, if not the best TAG in recent years. One, which sadly is out of my budget at the moment.

This, in reversed panda, is a first Tag, that I'm seriously considering. I love the design. Teddy you should be doing wrist check, I wonder what is the watch you're wearing in this video :)

I can only judge from photos for now but this could well be the best looking chrono in its price range but it feels out off its depth with regard to brand equity. It’s great to see an option with a size th t suits more people. The biggest negative for me is the competition have much better looking movements or they hide them.

Great review. The OCD among us may be distracted by the camera lights reflecting off the back window.

Appreciate your content, could you please give an opinion or review on the new Bulova Curv collection? Worth adding to collection?

That is a thing of beauty - well done Tag !

Hey Teddy and team, can you do a video on the tag twin time and day and date. Thanks!

Beautiful watch, torn between black and blue. Don't know why so many comments about Tag made quartz watches, so did Vacheron Constantin back in the days.

beautiful. wish it was 38 mm but 39 is just as great.

Looks great.

Was keen on both the black and blue versions. Tried them on but the 39mm size is too small for a legible chrono for me. Will be great if they bring out a 41mm version

I really like it. It’s simple, there’s nothing there to bother my eye. Only thing that would keep me back is the price. I think it’s a little too much. But size and looks wise it’s great

It's noticeable the reluctance of many commentators to say anything positive about Tags and it's great to here your feedback on this model. I am no expert and have a couple of Tags bought from the aesthetics and price point view and have enjoyed them both for some 10 years Thanks

the new carrera is the first Tag thats really grabbed my attention!

Couldn't agree more... TAG is simply not at the races with their other offerings. Great to see them expand on the Carrera ... definately the direction they need to take. Their other models are confusing... example they have the Formula 1 - motor sport inspired watch but in a diver ? What were they thinking ? Carrera is a motorsport inspired chrono perfect match

Nice piece this

What watch do you have on your wrist?

Looks nice especially with the thick indices. Still would prefer their Monaco though if I was going to get a chronograph.

I would love the blue dial version with a rhodium dial. Ideally in manual wind format at around 12mm thick.

Teddy I wish you would tell us what watch you are wearing before you start, I sit watching, trying to work out what it is every time. Sometimes I know but today I struggled.

I am a big fan of this watch. Waiting for it to drop in price on the secondary market so i can get one

It's just beautiful!

In 2017, I was impressed by the Autavia Crowdsourcing campaign, I was one of the earliest buyers... Hodinkee also had a 'fine week on the wrist’ video... I still have it (with all the promotional material,... I bought the beads of rice bracelet (in addition to the stock leather strap). All the hoopla calmed down after Mr. Biver stepped down. What should I do? I suppose I’ll just keep it in the closet.

Love the videos, new to collecting watches thanks to your channel. Do you think you can do another buying watches on a budget video but introduce names you havent mentioned? Perhaps lesser known names like Duxot?

I bought the Reverse Panda. It is stunning and the quality is top notch. And their newest iteration of the movement is silent with no rotor wobble, which really adds to the premium feel. The case, finish, and dial execution is excellent. Size at 39 is perfect. I would recommend this watch over a Speedmaster. Sure, it's not as versatile (maybe, I mean both can be daily drivers) but it's also way LESS boring.
