Replica Tag Heuer Aquaracer: Inspired by the aquatic world
#1 Tag Heuer Aquaracer: The creation
Replica Tag Heuer looks back on a long history, especially in the field of motorsport: in 1971, Jack Heuer signed a sponsorship contract with Ferrari. From then on, Ferrari racing cars bore the Tag Heuer logo and continue to shape the company’s image to this day.
#2 Tag Heuer Aquaracer: The design
The design of the Tag Heuer Aquaracer is characterized by the 12-sided faceted bezel with integrated tabs for optimal handling, even when wearing gloves.
The special edition in matte green/titanium is a limited edition that is even lighter on the wrist thanks to the material. There is also the Aquaracer 300 made of stainless steel with a black, blue or steel dial – and around €900 cheaper.
A nice detail is the case back of the Aquaracer: a compass is embossed on the case back of the Tag Heuer Aquaracer 200. The case back of the Aquaracer Professional 300 shows a diving helmet.
#3 Tag Heuer Aquaracer: The models
The range of Aquaracer models is large: There is currently the Aquaracer Professional 200 and the Aquaracer 300 for men and women, with a diameter of 30 or 40 millimeters or a diameter of 43 or 36 millimeters. The Aquaracer is available as a quartz watch or automatic watch, three-hand watch, chronograph or with GMT function.
In 2009, the collection was expanded to include the Tag Heuer Aquaracer 500M. A striking example of this diving watch, which is water-resistant to 500 meters, is the Tag Heuer Aquaracer Calibre 5, which was launched for the Oracle Team USA as part of the 34th America’s Cup. Special features: reinforced case, oversized crown, helium escape valve and a striking rubber ring.
Another special feature is the Tag Heuer Aquaracer Professional 1000 Superdiver with particularly high water resistance and a diameter of 45 millimeters – a tribute to the Diver 1000 m released in 1984.
The versions for women are feminine yet sporty, such as this simple stainless steel Aquaracer with diamond indices:
#4 Why should I buy an Aquaracer?
Aquaracer watches are robustly constructed. They have a secure folding clasp on the bracelet and a screw-down crown, both of which guarantee long durability. The models are extremely corrosion-resistant and can withstand chlorine as well as salt water and UV radiation.
The Aquaracer is bursting with technology, is highly recognizable and scores points with its clear design language. The brand has numerous brand ambassadors behind it, such as the Brazilian big-wave surfer Maya Gabeira, who wears the Tag Heuer Aquaracer Professional 300 with a diameter of 36 millimeters.
More than ten years ago, Tag Heuer was able to get US superstar Leonardo DiCaprio excited about its collections. Together they created the Aquaracer 500M Leonardo DiCaprio Limited Edition, of which only a few copies are still available worldwide. Part of the sales proceeds were donated to well-known environmental organizations such as the National Resources Defense Council and Green Cross International.
