Nice watch yes luxury watch don’t think so to me luxury watch is a brand that starts at around $5,000 and goes up to around $50,000 for example Rolex or Omega ultra luxury starts at $30,000 to $250,000 for example Patek Phillip and crazy extravagant are you insane in the head Richard Mille that starts around $200,000 and up to around $3,000,000 yes that’s six zeros I am in the humble Rolex and Omega level 😅😅😅 sorry don’t want to sound stuck up after all I am watching this video because I am considering buying a Tag Heuer but I just not sure about it

Damn, that looks sporty. Great dial, the strong pont imo. You said in the beginning of the video that they downsized, but you forgot to mention the dimentions. What are they? Also, you should talk sometime about buying pre owned, think it works very well with the brand TAG-Heuer, as they tank in prices. Bet this one will also, so it will be even a better deal given a few months/year

Thanks for sharing guys! I've always shied away from pre-owned for two main reasons. First, they're often single pieces meaning that the video will have little value as soon as the watch is sold. Second, this market is very much determined by sellers and their tricks. It would require me to fully trust on the information the seller is providing, which would be contrary to my principles. By far most sellers of vintage watches are swindlers - and not as much fun to work with as you might think...

Excellent review thanks! I've a small wrist (6.5"), but I've a tendency for larger watches, e.g my 43mm Carrera wears pretty big. My smallest watch was a 40mm bezel-less microbrand, but I found it too small. I'm not sure how I would feel about this Aquaracer given it has a bezel, the dial looks pretty small. I really like the blue on this as I gather the 43mm blue version is more navy than blue. They dropped the ceramic bezel (pity) but added polished centre links on the bracelet (nice). I think I might still get the 43mm night diver aquaracer, as it should wear smaller with the black case.

Hi Lex, oh yeah, I think that would be a great choice indeed! Quality is unquestionable and I do think the looks are worthwhile as well :) Do you have a specific colour in mind? When it comes to watches using this movement, a couple of other companies offer good watches as well, sometimes a bit cheaper (like Oris, Frederique Constant, Sinn, Doxa) and a lot more, though I think this Aquaracer offers quite a great package overall.
