   The Tag Aquaracer 500M Calibre Diver mens watch is one of Tag’s latest releases, taking some similarities from the SLR. This dive watch features is a water resistance of of 500M, with a helium escape valve at the 10 o’clock position, and a brushed stainless steel case. Using Tag’s Calibre 5 automatic movement built of off an ETA 2836-2, also available in quartz. Most noticeably, the date window is located at the 9 o’clock position rather than the more traditional 3-4 o’clock positioning, which has a cyclops date magnifier.

Pros - Aggressive lines, water resistance, price point.

Considerations - non-C.O.S.C. (but this also keeps the price point lower), location of date window.

Tag Heuer Formula 1 / F1 Watch Review

  The Tag Heuer F1 mens watch has had more than a few new looks over the last couple years. This is the best design to date our opinion. It is clean and uncluttered for a chronograph. The big seconds window, at the six o’clock position looks much better than the previous versions. This F1 is 41mm, water resistant to 200m, and has sapphire crystal. The bezel is coated with a scratch resistant titanium carbide and is surprisingly hard to scratch. The bracelet on the watch is very comfortable and well built for this price point. It is also offered on a rubber strap, which looks a bit awkward coming out of the lugs. The watch is powered by a Swiss quartz movement and this Tag can handle some abuse.

Pros - Functional, aesthetically well designed, nice size, rugged.

Considerations - The price is starting to creep for a standard quartz movement

Tag Heuer Carrera Chronograph Calibre 17 RS Review

  The Tag Heuer Carrera Chronograph Calibre 17 RS mens watch is a big advancement in watch making from Tag Heuer. The Grand Carrera Chronograph RS is designed after a high performance engine of a GT sports car and presents a revolutionary new way of telling time. The breakthrough comes from the exclusive new Rotating System (RS), a new technology replacing hands with rotating disc.  This new system provides at a glance, easy to read chronograph functions.

  The movement is built off of an ETA 2894 and is C.O.S.C. certified. There is a fantastic looking big date window at the 6 o’clock position, along with the very unique chronograph windows. The dial is visible through double AR coated sapphire crystal, there is a sapphire case back to view this nice movement. The dial features a hand applied TAG Heuer logo and curved markers for denoting the hours.

Pros - A great new version of a classic watch, new movement, C.O.S.C., very well finished watch and movement.

Considerations - Lacking in the lume department.

ALL WATCH REVIEWS ARE THOUGHT TO BE ACCURATE AT THE TIME OF THE REVIEW

  The Tag Heuer Aquaracer Calibre 5 is classic in design for a dive watch. The dial has almost a deep electric blue feel, further accented by the blue count down unidirectional bezel. The bracelet on this watch is nice and substantial, the case and bracelet both have a brushed finish. The seconds hand is pronounced with an orange outlined pointer, adding a nice touch of contrast to watch. The dial is protected by sapphire crystal, with a date window at the 3 o’clock position. Calibre 5 is in reference to Tag Heuer’s automatic movement housed in the 41mm case. This Aquaracer will take you 300m into the deep blue.

Pros - Good value

Considerations - Would like a larger crown
