I think Tag Heuer nailed it with this one. I love the size, 40mm is my sweet spot, I always felt the 43mm was too big. The dial is beautiful and the 6 o'clock date really improves the symmetry.

As an owner of this watch - I agree! I find this watch to be extraordinary. The design is amazing, quiet luxery and just so right for every situation.

You mentioned the “hexagonal” shapes throughout the dial but I only see trapezoidal indices. You also mentioned a “hexagonal” bezel but it appears to be a dodecagon. One side for every hour marker. Beautiful watch.

That blue dial colorway is gorgeous!

Great review btw. My personal take. On photos and videos the watch kinda looks.. okay. In person, is when its beauty shines. However, a real good watch should look good both on/off screen. Hopefully, Tag Heuer will offer it in ceramic bezel version or make the bezel available as a upgradable standalone part, to replace it from steel to ceramic for those who want to.

the bracelet, clasp and case are beautiful !

Question: love the stainless steel look, but contemplating the titanium version for the Aqua Racer only bc I want to minimize the amount of micro scratches over the years. How durable is the Tag Stainless Steel from scratches compared to the Titanium over the multiple years?

I like these more than the 43mm, though that ceramic bezel is nice on that model. I never quite thought the cyclops fit. Not because I hate a cyclops on a watch (I have one on my King Turtle), but the circular cyclops was incongruent with the rest of the watch being so angular. The move to the 6 o'clock date all around has been brilliant. That is my ideal location for a date. The blue is absolutely stunning, while the grey is beautiful, yet understated. Changes? 1 or 2 more micro-adjusts would be ideal, but I can't really complain about anything else. The lume colour differences are well thought out, and that is one impressively thin watch. Sure, a more modern movement with 70+ hours of power reserve would be nice, but then it would certainly be at a different price point. I think these are priced well for what they offer. Well done, TAG Heuer.

I own this watch with the grey fume dial. Excellent watch

Cool watch

Great review, Like You I have a Tudor BB Red, planning to get the Ceramic Tag Heuer Aquaracer or Longines Hydroconquest next, which would be you choice, I notice you rate both on previous reviews

Hey Keith, thanks for the comment! If it was me I would have to go for the Tag Heuer as I prefer the design. With that said the Longines movement is on paper better and i prefer the rubber strap to the Tag... it's a difficult one!

I like the pro 200 more than the 300. The blue is beautiful but i hope they release green dial bcs for me it’s kinda look beautiful imo.

Very nice indeed, the blue on the 300 is a bit subdued, but this one really pops. I also like the polished centre links on the bracelet. One or two negatives, the bezel is no longer ceramic and the bezel itself makes less room for the dial which is too small for me.

I’m thinking of purchasing this as my first proper watch, what do you think ?

thanks for a great review. personally i think the polished centre link is a downside, as it will scratch up very quickly. The lume pattern of the hand makes it look like a cheap repair was done with the wrong hands. The 2015 aquaracer nailed it for me, this just doesn't work - thank you so much for your review, convinced me its a no buy and to plump for the outgoing 2015 model

Hi , can you a coparasion to aquarace 41 ? And which one you think is a dressy watch?

@ChisholmHunterOfficial

2 жыл бұрын

We can! As soon as we get these models in we will do a VS video.

Except for the size, I prefer the aquaracer 300 in every other way. I prefer the hour markers, I prefer the inside cyclops, I prefer the ceramic bezel. I hope they keep the 300 design for a while. At least until I save up enough money to buy one. (Unless they make one exactly the same design with a 40mm size, which would make it perfect)

I have tried this watch on and it is quite attractive. Smaller size is great for my 6.75 inch wrist. Standard movement with lower power reserve is what it is. If that matters to you, buy a different watch. The thing that made the least sense to me was the bracelet. Polished center links and no microadjust. All the marketing around this watch is that it is the ultimate tough tool watch (ice climbing, etc). The bracelet doesn't match that marketing. Would have to take the bracelet off immediately and replace it with a strap.

I prefer the old Aquaracer. The old quartz version even has a date & has 300 meters water resistance!

What is the lug to lug on these?

Iis the lug 20mm?

Got the green dial 2 weeks ago. Cost usd2400

Small point, but significant: the bezel is NOT hectagonal, but decadohedronal. Count the sides: 12. :-)

' according to our...our thing ' Brilliant 😂 . By the way, a great all round tool watch. I really like what they've done.

6:16 they're called vernier calipers... and yes as long as they're not damaged they are infact exact 😅

Lug width?

Great review. One issue though. There is no lume on the bezel. This is rather strange for a professional diver.

Best watch they’ve done for a while. Yes they’ve copied the nautilus but I like the the dial. Power reserve is still a massive disappointment though

I've seen this one yesterday. It didn't have the tool-less microadjustment like 2021 aquaracer models. It has almost the same microadjustment like Rolex Easylink. You can pull out a small section of link inside the clasp like Easylink.

Why the bracelet is brushed and polished is for many people buying this tag it will be their only watch so they can wear it everyday or as a dress watch.Not many real collectors would buy this watch.Look at the Longines hydro conquest for over 1 k less it has a better movement but the Tag has a better bracelet and both are everyday watches.But if someone gave me this tag for sure I would wear it but as my beater watch.And one last thing who would spend this much money on a watch that has less power reserve than you do.But honestly I love this watch.

Polygonal bazel

So a dive watch that can’t be used as a dive watch ? (No lume pip or triangle at the 12 o clock position on the bezel). Also having tried this on - I must say that the crown sticks out waaaaaay too far and distracts from the rest of the watch. They have also used the old calibre 5 again instead of their impressive new movement TH20-00. Those three changes made to this and you have one solid release !

Can you help me understand the serial number on TAG watches. It's supposed to be the second number below the model, but if that's the case then there are often MANY listings with the same serial number. Wouldn't these be counterfeit? Example is WBD1112.BA0928 Look it up somewhere and you can see for yourself. Even Chrono 24 at times. Perhaps I'm missing something? Thanks for the GREAT videos!

time to ditch the 38 hours 2824... it is wasting the effort on the design and the finishing!

Dial is going to cause an epileptic seizure...

So this is essentially a poor man's yachtmaster since the bezel isn't lumed making it less than ideal as a diver.
