Stepping up in TAG Heuer's range

Price range £1,330 to £11,950 across 12 TAG Heuer watches in stock.

The Aquaracer Professional 200 began as a working diver's tool, and this 30mm version makes a specific argument about what that platform can become. The twelve-faceted fixed bezel is set with 46 diamonds totalling approximately 0.552 carats, the hour markers are brilliant-cut diamonds at roughly 0.116 carats combined, and the crown is turned from solid 18k 5N rose gold — warm against the brushed and polished steel of the case in a way that reads as considered rather than incidental. The mother-of-pearl dial shifts with the light, which gives the watch a different character at a desk than it has in the evening. At 30mm and 11mm deep it sits without weight on a slender wrist, and the tapered bracelet follows that logic through to the clasp, which releases only with both push-buttons depressed simultaneously. The screw-down crown and solid caseback deliver a genuine 200-metre rating — the same figure the sport versions carry — so the diamond setting does not come at the cost of what the Aquaracer was built to do.

Learn more about TAG Heuer

Edouard Heuer founded his workshop in Saint-Imier in 1860 at the age of twenty, and the company he built became the definitive maker of things that measure short intervals.

The patents came early and mattered. The oscillating pinion of 1887 remains in use in mechanical chronographs today — an elegantly simple way of engaging the chronograph train that most manufacturers still prefer to the column wheel alternative. The Mikrograph of 1916 measured to a hundredth of a second, decades ahead of anything comparable.

Heuer's association with motorsport ran deeper than sponsorship. It supplied dashboard timers to rally and racing teams for decades, and the wrist chronographs of the 1960s were named accordingly: Carrera, for the Carrera Panamericana; Monaco, for the Grand Prix; Autavia, from automobile and aviation. The Monaco of 1969 — square, water-resistant, and worn by Steve McQueen in Le Mans — housed the Calibre 11, one of the first automatic chronograph movements.

The quartz crisis hit hard. TAG, the Techniques d'Avant Garde group, bought the company in 1985, giving the current name. LVMH acquired it in 1999.

The modern house has pursued high-frequency timing seriously, producing concept movements measuring to a thousandth and a five-thousandth of a second, alongside the volume Carrera, Aquaracer, and Formula 1 lines.

Frequently asked questions, and things you should know about this watch

Can I swim with it?

Yes. At 200m it is rated for swimming, snorkelling and recreational diving.

Water resistance explained

Will the glass scratch?

Unlikely. Sapphire is second only to diamond in hardness and shrugs off everyday marking.

Sapphire, mineral and acrylic compared

Does it need a battery?

No. It is hand-wound, so it needs winding every day or two but never a battery.

Quartz, automatic and solar compared

What size strap does it take?

16mm. Any strap of that width will fit, and on most modern watches quick-release bars make the swap a two-minute job with no tools.

Is it a men's or women's watch?

Listed as women's.
