TAG Heuer has always been close to the world of sea and nautical sports. From its patent of one of the first water-resistant cases for a pocket watch in 1895, the World’s first Chronograph with regatta dial and tide indicator: the Mareograph / Seafarer in 1950, and now with the launch of the new 2015 Aquaracer 300M.
As Official Time Keeper and Official Watch of the World Surf League & Big Wave Tour, TAG Heuer introduce today a new Aquaracer 300m Ceramic — named after its 300 meter dive capacity - coming in various models.
The new Aquaracer 300M collection exemplifies the line’s performance qualities but also enhances its refined, sporty allure. Each timepiece is a great seafarer and diving instrument developed to meet the extreme requirements of professional watersports. The 300 m water resistant case offers a unidirectional rotating bezel - to measure time limits or elapsed dive time - in ceramic, with 6 studs to easily set it up when wearing gloves. For more security at depth, the timepiece also features a screw-in crown and double gaskets.
The unscratchable dial bears horizontal streak effects for an avant-garde look and luminescent markers on indexes and hands for viewing in low light.
The straps are equipped with a folding clasp with a double security lock to prevent any accidental opening, and with a special diving extension.
