QC help buying my 1st Tag

Recommended Posts

The missing arrow on the G is a problem with all Tag reps that have an applied logo on the dial. The painted logos are pretty much perfect. I have not seen a Tag rep with a good applied logo, my Day Date is a perfect example, an otherwise excellent rep with a bad dial logo.

It looks like puretime has this model with the Arrow on the G.

It also looks likes they have removed the blue screws finally.

Let's hope they keep up these improvements for the rest of the updated Tags. I'm holding off pulling the trigger on a day/ date for the Missing arrow issue.

trevor also has a really nice aquaracer with the arrow G.

also,

1. The hour markers are aligned in the center of the counters (you can compare pics from other dealers to Trevor) - It's not on the previous verions

See 11 o'clock on the photo below (old watch photo)

2. The Tag Heuer logo has a flatter appearance, collect color, with arrows on the G. (Very gen like) - Previous versions have a very cheap plasticky/bulgy looking logo

3. the 500 M kerning/tracking (spacing between the letters) is correct. - The previous version has the 500 in the 500 M too spaced out the kerning is weird.

4. From the looks the rubber material on the bezel seems to be much higher quality. - The previous version is a bit more plasticky.

make sure you get the SW 220 version for the correct movement look!
