The TAG Heuer Story

TAG Heuer traces it is origins to the little Swiss village of St-Imier where, in 1860, a watchmaker named Edouard Heuer opened his original shop. His vision was to invent remarkable timepieces that pushed the envelope of innovation and precision. The company’s reputation grew, and Heuer’s primary patent for a chronograph mechanism in 1882 was followed by a long list of achievements: the initial stopwatch precise to 1/100 of a second, the initial dashboard stopwatch for race cars, the original miniature electronic timekeeping device exact to 1/1000th of a second, and the firstborn automatic motion with a microrotor, to name just a few.

Over the years, Heuer’s reputation for gold-standard precision earned the company the privilege of supplying official timing services for a number of world-class competitory sporting events, including the Olympic Games, the FIS Ski World Cup, and the FIA Formula 1 World Championships. To this day, TAG Heuer maintains a close association with the world of competitory sports and enjoys a devoted following amongst sports celebrities and enthusiasts. In 1985, Heuer joined the TAG (Techniques D’Avant-Garde) group, and the TAG Heuer name and logo were created. Now one of the most recognized and sought-after watch brands in the world, TAG Heuer proceeds it is reputation of progressed design and technical excellence, creating honored timepieces that are always at the cutting edge of precision, reliability and style.

1Poor quality
By Rohi
Bought watch at Longs Jewelers in Burlington MA. The stem (the part you wind up) has popped out three times. The original time, they fixed it beneath warranty. The second time, it was no longer beneath warranty, so Tag charged me $275. The watch came back and a week later the stem was gone again. I stuffed it in a drawer for a few months (angry) and when I at last got around to going back to the jeweler, Tag said me it would be another $275 as the warranty had expired. Shame on me for not bringing it back more quickly but frankly I am sick of these guys. The jeweler (Long’s Jeweler in Burlington Mass, useless and unhelpful) said warranty conclusions from Tag are final.

4Nice Classic Looking Watch
By Bubbles-Desmo
I just purchased this watch through amazon.com. It was either this or the formula one alarm version at costco. The alarm feature on the other version isn’t very utile so I decisive versus it. Packaging was nice, came in the tag box and case with manual. I like the look of chronograph watches and the further and added feature to stopwatch anything is something i wanted to time rides, drives, runs etc…

Style is up to taste, but I find this a simple casual style watch you may wear with a t-shirt or be formal with a suit.

The two buttons on it are pretty easy to use, one to start/split and the other to stop/reset.

The watch has two main features, one is to tell time, and the other is the chronograph.

For telling time, the big red “second” hand doesn’t move and hovers over the 12 o’clock mark. The dial on bottom serves as the second hand and moves continuously.

In Chronograph mode, the top right dial only moves after you stop the stopwatch or to do a split time. It will move to show the time in 1/10. The huge red second hand will commence to move once you are in chronograph mode and the left dial will move for minutes. I’m not sure, but I assume if you do something for over 30 minutes, then the dial will continually move and reset at 1minute.

Overall – I’m very happy with it. I believe Amazon has the lowest price on the web and they give a 2 year warranty which equals TAGs. Costco has a similar warranty deal as well. The prices are better than ebay, and those guys don’t even offer a warranty period. The only thing stopping me from giving it 5 stars is it’s reliability and service life. For something you pay $750+ for, you suppose it to last almost a lifetime, This will stay to be seen.

I’ve likewise noticed when I purchased, the price fluctuates among 729-749 day to day. So if you’re patient, just keep on checking to save that extra $20.00

5Great Tag Heuer.
By M. Halus
I was bit nervous regarding ordering a fine watch over the internet, but my fears were baseless. I love this watch. It is incisively what was advertised. The only downside is that since Amazon is not an official Tag Heuer retailer you don’t get an official warranty card. However Amazon does provide a comparable 2 year warranty. All in all I am very pleased with my purchase.
