When smartphones launched into the public consciousness and became a ubiquitous part of society about a decade ago, they essentially “killed” a lot of different industries in one fell swoop. Who besides professional photographers needs to buy a standalone camera anymore, when your smartphone can already do that? PDAs? Say “goodbye” — you’re carrying around one in your pocket at all times. Many assumed that the same was true of watches — why do you need a watch when you can easily tell the time on that small portable computer you carry around with you all day long?
While still looking to the future with new releases like the TAG Heure Connected Modular 45 Smartwatch, TAG Heuer also looks back at tradition with a sports watch inspired by the aquatic world, the Aquaracer Calibre 5 Automatic.
Introduced at Baselworld 2017, the TAG Heuer Aquaracer Calibre 5 Automatic features a khaki matte dial, a khaki flange with a 60 second/minute scale and a stunning black gold plated and polished, facetted applied index with khaki superluminova technology. In addition to the striking green TAG Heuer logo that instantly lets people know that you mean business, the stunning flat sapphire crystal with anti-reflective treatment also has a cyclops at the 3 o’clock for better date magnification. At just 43 mm in diameter and with water resistance up to 300 meters, this watch is perfect for when you want to look great, for when you want the type of functionality you can always depend on and for when you absolutely demand both at the same time.
