How is the grip of the bezel on Tag x Omega? If in good design form should follow county, this is important.
Subscribed, Nice video. Its always nice to see nice equipment (camera and microphones) been used in watch videos, also nice information.
Ill take the TAG over the Omega. If it was a Planet Ocean tho…..
Excellent video. Very interesting and informative.
I always enjoy your shots, great photos of these little beasts.
If u consider Swatch owns Omega and ETA too, its fully in-house movement. 😀
great video!
Thanks for sharing a honest review
I like both. Just wish TAG Heuer would drop the TAG part of its name. I think the Aquaracer is a decent, less expensive, alternative to the Omega Seamaster. You can buy the Seamaster for around $2500 and Aquaracer for around $1800 on grey market. Pretty disappointed though in the Aquaracer’s movement… that’s garbage. No wonder why watch enthusiasts categorize TAG as a “fashion” watch and nothing close to having horological value.
Tag looks too good. For the price , its OK. If the automatics are not reliable, just get the quartz
Great video! what do you mean by you regulated the accuracy yourself?
Wow, good video. After regulating the TAG yourself, what was the outcome for the day to day accuracy?
I have a tag heuer Aqua racer caliber 5. I had to send it to Tag twice for warrantee work on the movement. Works well now…but maybe runs a tad bit fast. Overall I really like it but agree that Tag should spend less on ambassadors and adverts and more on the watches and quality control. I was also looking at a Breitling Superocean II at the time I bought the Tag and wish I had gone with it. I probably will end up getting one. All that to say the aquaracer is a well constructed watch and has a great look on the wrist. The size is just right I think. But to potential buyers I would certainly look at other brands and compare.
It is sad the Aquaracer has a lower grade movement over the Carrera yet they are advertised as the same. I owned the WAY2110 and had issues in transit for servicing (scratches) and got a refund and later bought the Carrera WAR201E. I did have movement issues with my Aquaracer but not with the Carrera. I want that same Aquaracer back again but not sure if it is worth the issues that might arise. I bought the Carrera with the refund money so I really dont even have the money to spend like that so I would be super pissed if I get that Aquaracer I fell in love with again and it stops working on me.
I would choose Oris Aquis anyday over Aquaracer. And that Seamaster though.. hot damn! its beautiful
I’d choose OMEGA anyway of the week it’s an easy one. I will say that the Aquaracer is a nice watch. I kinda want one.
I like the Tag.
I love the Omega.
Aqua Racer Caliber 5 is more beautiful that that Omega
Pls post vids more often!!
Great and honest review. I’m thinking about getting this Tag myself however I do agree that they are spending to much money and effort on ambassadors than on movements.
Excellent. Where did you get that Omega slide clasp?
I took my Seamaster Diver 300m to the Omega Store and asked if they could change the clasp.
They acted as if I asked them to sell me a counterfeit watch.
If I’m spending 2000+ euros dollars whatever I don’t want plastic on/inside my watch at all! Maybe rubber o rings nd such in crown system/gaskets but other than that NO PLASTIC … anywhere!
This Aqua Racer and a Monaco are the only 2 TH i would buy.
I enjoy your reviews. Keep them coming. Both nice watches.
Seeing plastic in the movement of a $2,000 is a bit disappointing Tag.
its bonds choice afterall
Excellent review, thank you for making the vid!
If I’m not mistaken the Omega 300M actually features a 9 link bracelet. The smaller segments on “2nd” and “4th” links are all separate. Other then that great video. Just further confirms my decisions to get a 300M for myself.
I love the tag, what a beautiful design. But sadly won’t buy. Way to many reported problems. What a shame. Tag need new serious management
I always thought Omega is better, looking at this I would rather wear a TAG.
Love your videos man! Keep up the quality content.
Great review. I have tag heuer aquaracer chronograph ceramic bezel with the SW500 movement, I have more than 1 year that I have the watch and I did not have any problem, + 1 / -1 per day. Your watch should have come with some regulation problem! Do you know anyone who has ever had a problem with the SW500? I am thinking of selling my TAG and buy Omega seamaster 300m.
Is the Omega worth the service costs in the future?
