I could not find it for under $2,600 anywhere else. I had to adjust the band size for $35, but the watch weight and look is excellent. I also love the fact that the back is a see thru! If you take it off more than 12 hours you will have to re-adjust the time, but who cares, it beats changing the battery every 3 years and having the watch opened!!
It came with Amazon 2 year warranty not TAG's warranty, but I was able to register the watch on TAGHeuer.com. A great time piece... buy it! 4 of 4 people found the following review helpful: By Cameron (Vancouver, WA USA) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: TAG Heuer Men's WJ201B.BA0591 Link Caliber 5 Automatic Watch (Watch) I read a lot of reviews before I purchased this watch from Amazon, including the reviewer who complained that the watch was heavy, clunky and uncomfortable. I disagree with some of that review. I found the TAG Heuer Link Calibre 5 to be very comfortable to wear. This watch is heavier than a battery powered watch. An automatic watch needs a lot more moving parts than a watch that runs on a battery, and that adds extra weight. I prefer the extra weight because it feels like I have something substantial on my wrist instead of a hollow piece of tin. An automatic watch must be worn (or periodically wound) to keep running, so if you are only going to wear the watch part time, than a battery powered watch may be a better choice for you. A quartz battery powered watch may keep more accurate time than an automatic watch (especially if you don't wear it constantly or keep it wound), although I have been wearing my Tag automatic watch for a week now, and so far,...Read more By Scott Moore (SOUTHAVEN, MS, US) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: TAG Heuer Men's WJ201B.BA0591 Link Caliber 5 Automatic Watch (Watch) I've had mine for a few years now and it still functions flawlessly. It's not exactly quartz watch accurate even with the calibre 5 movement, but its close enough and seems to have evened out over the years (it used to gain time slowly). The pointer on the rotating dial fell out about a year ago, leaving a shallow hole. I had it replaced with a sapphire at a local jeweler for $16. It turned out nice. The watch is not too big and looks great still, even though I beat the hell out of it with daily wear. The shiny crown will scratch, but don't worry about the crystal. I've hit it with a hammer and it won't scratch. Like I said, I beat the hell out of it. I have a less expensive Invicta that I bought to work in, but I wear this watch instead every day. If you take care of it, your literally looking at 10+ year watch that still looks hot. My last TAG lasted over 10 years and then the band just disintegrated. The band on this watch appears indestructible and consists of over 75 parts. It...Read more |
