The bracelet could have been enlivened with a combination of angular links, a more interesting brushed texture and polished center links. Frankly, the bracelet looks a bit dull, and the sportive nature of the watch should not be held as an excuse. The sides of the links are polished, while the remaining surfaces are brushed with a fine grain. The bracelet itself feels substantial, but signs of the care that went into designing the rest of the watch are notably absent here. The value engineering is most visible in the generic metal bracelet, the weakest element of the watch. While the Tag Heuer Aquaracer Calibre is a relatively expensive watch, there is no doubt that the designers were obliged to cut corners along the way to hit TAG Heuer’s target price point. With the crown, the measurement is 48.2mm. Case diameter is 43.5mm, but it really doesn’t wear that large. Fashion watches these are not! The Aquaracer 500 reviewed here starts with a fully brushed stainless steel case with angled sides that give the watch a bit more presence and heft. The Aquaracer line is large and varied and I was drawn to the 500 meter models because of their unique looks and no-nonsense features. I currently own three Tags, which is the most of any one brand in my collection. Not until I bought one did I come to appreciate their build quality, accuracy out of the box and overall design aesthetic. And to be honest, before I became a certified full-blown WIS, I always thought Tags were overrated.
What I appreciate about Tag Heuer is that the brand has a true Swiss heritage and continues to produce great dive/tool watches, iconic models like the Monaco and the aforementioned bleeding edge movements to showcase their technical expertise.
