Luxurious Yet Ready for Any Marine Adventure

Since patenting a waterproof case for pocket watches in 1892, TAG Heuer has maintained a deep connection with the world of marine sports, releasing numerous timepieces. The current popular "Aquaracer" collection has evolved since its debut in 1982, embodying TAG Heuer's sports spirit as a dive watch.

This collection is now expanded with three new models: two featuring a beautiful blue and brown tortoiseshell pattern, and one stylish khaki model. With an avant-garde design distinct from previous Aquaracers, the appeal of this sporty collection has been further broadened.

The model with a blue dial features a bezel adorned with a sophisticated tortoiseshell pattern created through innovative resin technology. Its palette of dark and light blue hues evokes the waves seen from a yacht deck. The model with the modern brown tortoiseshell pattern is equipped with a sunray-finished black dial featuring horizontal stripes, inspired by the shimmering waves under sunlight.

Both models enhance legibility with a 60-minute scale on the unidirectional rotating bezel and a beveled magnifying lens over the date display at 3 o'clock. Additionally, rhodium-plated applied indices and hour, minute, and second hands are coated with white Super-LumiNova®, ensuring high visibility in all conditions. The strap, made from premium rubber, is embossed with an alligator pattern, offering a luxurious aesthetic while being perfectly suited for marine activities.

The khaki model captivates with a modern combination of a robust textile strap and a beautifully sunray-finished anthracite dial. The case back of all models is engraved with a diver's helmet illustration, underscoring their status as high-performance dive watches that blend cutting-edge technology with sophisticated design.
