Many thanks - I recommend trying it. Makes the Aquaracer much lighter for daily use, and the black and silver contrast makes it look great.

Also, I definitely recommend getting a strap from C&B - their customer service is simply amazing. They went out of their way to correct an error with the first strap they sent me. The next time I want a strap, they're the people I'll get in touch with first.

Good Morning Gentlemen!Found this site while researching my new Monaco and saw the thread for the Aquaracer OG and had to pop-in - here's my first TAG and my everyday watch (except when REALLY doing manual labor!): JUST got it back from TAG for repair - I discovered the hard way that the Calibre S is NOT a diving watch despite the 300M waterproof statement! The crown is not a screw down and on my wrist it can too easily be pushed while maneuvering underwater . TAG had it for 8 weeks but it came back good as new with new face and movement.I did also learn the hard way that even if you have the warranty card and they validate it's authentic that they won't honor the warranty without the AR details on it...I guess I need to figure out what TAG I should get now for diving since the AR is out!

Here is my new one as of 12/1/2011...Aquaracer 500m Calibre16-(CAJ2110.BA0872). I need some advice on the Automatic Wind Function. I was shaking a bottle of Ketchup and when I finished, it seemed like the total inside of the watch was unwinding as if I had over wound it while shaking the Ketchup. The watch was actually shaking during this process. Is that normal or did I get a lemon???...You can contact me via e-mail through this forum if you have any suggestions.....Thanks

Hi,

That's because of the movement: Valjoux 7750 (ETA 7750)
On this forum you can find soms topics about this movement. It's normal, some people consider this behaviour as very disturbing but then again this ETA 7750 movement is very solid.. The only thing I don't like is the fact that this watch is so heavy because of the 7750 movement + so thick.
This movement is common used and there are many watches using this 7750 movement but all very different in price. Some consider that as marketing nonsense because those people say that a watch should mainly be judged on it's movement.
Example:
- a Hamilton or Tissot watch with ETA 7750 movement, +/- €1000,-
- TAG Heuer (Aquaracer 500m calibre16 chrono) with this ETA 7750 movement, +/- €2700,-
>> both estimated SRP (suggested retail price)

I love the Aquaracer line! One of my favorite watches in my collection is the 2000 classic. I wish they still made them, I'd have a lot more!
