TAG movements

[webvan]

I'd say it's the other way round actually

[tchangit]

Can anyone tell me what type of movement the Grand Carrera Calibre 8 has? Is it an ETA movement or in house?

[enricodepaoli]

I think GCs are all ETAs highly modified to be what TAG calls Rotating Discs. They should be nice.

While researching the Dubois Depraz modules used by TAG and Heuer, I encounterd this list which I thought would be interesting to the crew...

Hi,

Great list!

Do you know the difference between Calibre 16 and Valjoux 7750?

What I mean is whether any modifications are being carried out on the Valjoux 7750?

Thanks for the list, and all the great info here.

I just ordered this watch:
Aquaracer Calibre S CAF7010.BA0815


Based on posts I became aware most Tag Heuers are using someone else's movement.

This thread shows my watch has an in house movement, as I had no clue as to movements I'd appreciate any input available as to if this is a good or bad unit.

I don't have it yet but chose it based on style and reviews gleaned from the web.

Thanks

It certainly is an interesting movement, very legible chrono, I'm happy with my F1 Calibre S, actually I'm wearing it now, but you should be aware of this "feature" -> Craftsmenship issues with Carrera Calibre S? : minute hand has a bit of "play" by design.

[e30cabrio]

Thanks for the link, it is coming from an AD so if there is a problem it shouldn't be a problem. I will set it and pay attention before I wear it thanks to your help!

how about the calibre 2 in monaco 69? does it uses eta in the automatic side?

[webvan]

Not sure about ETA, but it's not an automatic AFAIK, it's a manual movement.
