Really fine vid guys. Thanks for the chat about the new Carreras. I have the blue glass box with date at 6:00. Fantastic and gorgeous watch. Heuer is back!
Bro the was sam das that he reads the comments with that smile broke my heart, he seems like a genuinely good guy and he will definitely bring a different perspective and quality to this channel. He definitely doesn’t deserve the hate because he is no replacement for big mike and never was intended to be. Give this guy some praise 👍🏻✌🏻
my date isn't ever right? NO! so disrespectful to your calendar function...do you even love your watch? the black tag is the first watch they've made that made my heart pump. looks really good.
Really enjoying the aquaracer in 40mm. I find it a fun more modern and sporty take on a diver. Perfect for me as I already have more vintage styled divers and even an actual vintage seamaster. I feel TAG really offered a unique style to add to my collection that didn’t feel redundant with the rest of my divers. Sure I would have preferred a better movement. But I’m not mad that it’ll be easy to service and actually enjoy it’s not slowed to 3hz. Enough of my other watches have long power reserves. Maybe that’s the key, but other luxury watches first. Then buy a TAG later and appreciate it for what it is. Or don’t.
@@seanier3648not gonna lie, if I had to only choose one diver it would be Tudor pelagos 39. But at almost half the price I would definitely still consider the aquaracer. There’s still a lot of competition at the price point for TAG but they have the biggest name I believe In that range. I’m a big fan of vulcain’s comeback as well. If you like faux vintage aesthetic, I love their skin diver! Great price too! And they have what I consider to be the best Chronograph deal right now. More coverage on Vulcain!
Tag Heuer’s strongest year for over 20 years I first (and last) bought a Tag (Carerra) in 2001. Do I need one now, NO….but would I consider the Carrera chrono, skipper or Monaco Skeleton most definitely YES! Beautiful timeless and unique designs.
I do set the date along with the time. Every time I pickup a watch from the box, I take some time to set the time and the date. Its like a mini ritual before going out.
Funny how you didn’t make any videos about Tag‘s new releases when they were released, but now all of a sudden care about them. Suddenly “OMG Tag is killing Tudor!”
Love these conversations guys. Nice friendly and lively. You guys clearly have a good friendship. Tag are definitely upping their game that’s for sure. Had a look at one of their displays in a shop window the other day and I was like………..damm, looking good 👍
I ALWAYS set the date (when applicable) when putting on a watch. I datecode both photo and video exports for both my job and my hobbies, and it's just convenient to have the date be on my wrist (and accurate). Plus, it would drive me UP THE WALL to knowingly have te wrong date on my watch. Like.... If I had a second at a red light, I'd change it.
Always an instant click when I see a Theo and Harris video pop up. The enthusiasm in each video never fails to brighten my day! Will be signing up to The Zero in the near future.
Hey, I have a bit of an off topic question. What’s the olive quilted jacket that is worn in this video. Brand? Any information is appreciated. Thanks again for an enjoyable & informative discussion. ✌🏻
@@LanguagesWithAndrew You say that but there are still insufferable people out there who will look at the Tudor on your wrist and think "oh, they couldn't get a Rolex"
So I have a Tudor BB41mm with the jubilee bracelet on order. My first watch was a tag F1, I’ve always loved tag as I am a race fan so I see them everywhere 😂. Now I’m torn. Go order a tag or keep my BB on order?
@@RabbitWatchShopThe Problem is you can't buy the Rolex you want. So unless you are willing to pay Grey Market prices any desirable Rolex is out of reach.
@@meagandempers7308 waiting times are shortening. Rolex is ramping up production and intends on shortening the time more. I now guys that ‘get the call’ for desirable models all the time.
Really solid episode this time around, loved it you two. Before this year I thought TAG was super cheesy, a step above a mall watch, riding their brand recognition into the dust. But then they released the Glassbox and it was like "Holy sh!t, this is *actual* watchmaking, this shows real love, real thought!" and for the first time ever I really want a modern TAG. The price delta's steep, but I'd have a real hard time choosing between the blue Glassbox and Zenith's Revival Shadow, I really would.
Great watches. Just tried the blue dial on last week and I really was impressed. Have never owned a Tag Heuer and I am really considering picking one up.
I have been collecting for many years. I have seen the rise of brands and the fall of brands. I have also seen the brands that have fallen rise again. Why do people have a hard time with change? Time will tell if TH can continue the great work they did this year. 2024 will be interesting to see what they release.
they are making some very smart and stylish marketing moves and collabs etc. I think motorsport is in a strong position at the moment and theyd do well to push hard back into that space
I think after the new Carrera pricing Tag prices themselves out. I have the skipper, which is probably the most amazing watch they’ve ever made. It’s based on their own history with zero influence from other brands. But even with that it’s as expensive as I go with Tag Heuer. The “Dark Lord” Monaco puts you in a price bracket where you really should be looking at other brands. Lastly, I guess Tag released a bracelet for the Tag. Not sure about “high end” but it’s nice and obviously at $320 pretty affordable.
TAG Heuer have always been a fun brand. Massively popular in the 90's as a real unpretentious sports watch with great designs (2000 series as seen in some of the Die Hard films). Their F1 range was the MoonSwatch of their time, and was ground breaking for its time. Then you have vintage Heuer..... beautiful !
This needs to stop, Christian. I need Michael back or I will unsub. Nothing against this guy, I like him a lot more than you. In fact, him and Michael would be a killer duo. #JusticeForMichael #MichaelOrUnsub #MeToo
Where is Michael. Address this issue explicitly, or I’m out of here. Nothing against the new guy, but this channel becomes like EVERY OTHER watch channel on RUclips. My opinion, your views are going to tank. The chemistry isn’t the same.
Really enjoying the frequency, diversity and great quality of content. JLC - the existing master controller calendar moonphase minus the chrono (unnecessary complication) at early/mid teens price point is better value. Agree the existing gold / black with chrono is sexier. But I’d go a precious metal code 11.59 at that price I like the Polaris, underrated. Agree with coloured dials with coloured rubber strap are great and price ok Agree re Breitling. Never owned one, love the Premier Herotage and Datora the most (salmon and pistachio dial). Been tempted with for some time. Strap a bit glossy but changeable. AP - not a fan of the watch and this specific collab. BUT I do kind of like the fact AP are a disruptor not shackled to holy trinity conservative expectations, having fun, and reaching out to a wider and next generation audience. However, it’s a fine line and they need to offset this with a heritage dress watch to balance out their portfolio with RO, offshore, concept and Code 11.59.
I absolutely do set the date on my watch. I also really like day-dates and always ensure that both the day and date are set correctly on the one that I have (Hamilton Khaki Field Day-Date). I also can't stand for a watch I'm wearing to be more than about 10 seconds off of the correct atomic clock time. Watches are *not* fashion accessories for me, I use them, I rely on them to tell me the correct time, day, date, etc. I missed an appointment once before because I hadn't set my watch correctly...ONCE. After that I became even more particular about ensuring that my watch was set correctly. Yes, I have a smart phone, yes I carry it everywhere, however a watch is more convenient so I use a watch to check the time, date, and (when relevant) day.
Like what Tag is doing but some of their pricing is a bit out of whack…At least until their able to compete with brands that feature in-house movements across the catalog. Love the Carrera but that Calibre 5 movement isn’t that exciting at over $3k. The pricing on Skipper with the 02 movement makes more sense. But have $10k, be real, very few are buying a Tag.
I think it is going to take some time for Tag to regain their reputation and not be seen as a mall watch level product. I am older though and when I look at a Tag I recall the popularity in the 90s as a very very entry level watch just a step above fossil and worn primarily by young guys. Definitely not my jam but I can appreciate their attempts to reinvent themselves and return to their roots. As far as dates go, yes, I always reset my date. I would never remember the date otherwise and actually use that complication.
I encourage everyone who loves glassbox to first try it on. It sits sooooo high on the writs it makes it feels weirdly off balance. And it's coming from a guy who comfortably wears Breitling super chronomat.
TAG just needs to remove TAG from the Heuer inspired re-issues. There's a reason why it's not called the Volkswagen Aventador. I'd love an Autavia reissue in a smaller size!
Good move bringing the seats back close together. That back and forth banter and fun conveys more to the viewer now and restores a bit of the intimacy the previous setup had.

Funny how you didn’t make any videos about Tag‘s new releases when they were released, but now all of a sudden care about them. Suddenly “OMG Tag is killing Tudor!”
I thought the same. This is such a click bait puff piece.
New record: heard ''100%'' within the first 20 seconds.
I always make sure the dates on my watches
Yes, my date on whatever watch I’m wearing is always correct, life just does not feel right otherwise.

Episode is like the moment when Dick Sargent replaced Dick York on Bewitched.
Nice to see you reference your phone when reading your notebook. I do have the correct date on my watches.
Is there a big difference in movement and serviceability of the two brands? A lot of the Tudor's are chronometer certified watches.
TAG probably chucks and replaces the movements like Tudor are lol

Just got my first Tag ever in the form of a Night Diver Aquaracer. Absolutely love it - seriously looking at one of the new GMTs
I think Tudor will still be a solid brand that is massively under rated. Tag is doing very good but I still have to say Tudor will stay strong.
But yes I would say tag has had a better year than Tudor. But let's see where tudor is in 2024
Yes, Tudor could be more mass. F1 Team sponsor maybe. Tennis player sponsor maybe.
Tudor's good but I definitely wouldn't call them "underrated" now...5 years ago, yes, maybe even 3 years ago, but not anymore.
@@LanguagesWithAndrew You say that but there are still insufferable people out there who will look at the Tudor on your wrist and think "oh, they couldn't get a Rolex"
This is absolutely true but I don't see how that means that Tudor is underrated.@@Horizontalvertigo
Doesn't Tudor win on price, or costs less than the comparable Tag Heuer Chrono?
Yes, they really shouldn’t be in the same comparison.
The Tudor isn’t as nice as the Tag chrono.
I always change the date on my watch because I use it.
So I have a Tudor BB41mm with the jubilee bracelet on order. My first watch was a tag F1, I’ve always loved tag as I am a race fan so I see them everywhere 😂. Now I’m torn. Go order a tag or keep my BB on order?
Definitely both. They are both awesome tbh.
@@zsb707 I got my BB and omg i love it!!
Great video guys new sub 👊🏽
10-12k on a tag is a hard sell for me. Beautiful watch though
They’ll collect dust. They’ll only move them once they offer 50% discounts. Imagine spending that much on a Tag when you can buy a Rolex.
@@RabbitWatchShopThe Problem is you can't buy the Rolex you want. So unless you are willing to pay Grey Market prices any desirable Rolex is out of reach.

I'm wearing a tag formula 1 calibre 7 as I type this.... Not a chance they'll overtake Tudor.

You should probably just rename this channel, “period end”
I literally make sure my date is correct every time I put one on. Lol I'm gonna complain about it, but it's gonna be correct. Lol
I can’t read the date anymore so never set it, even when I could I barely set it..
23:50 they made the Aquaracer soooooooo much better!!
I’m surprised how much I enjoy the new aquaracers.

I don’t think LVMH deserves the hate in this case, but as always, blaming the French for any grievance is always a solid course of action.
jumper and glass box are cool, but just chronographs alone cannot take on tudor
TAG Heuer have always been a fun brand. Massively popular in the 90's as a real unpretentious sports watch with great designs (2000 series as seen in some of the Die Hard films).
Their F1 range was the MoonSwatch of their time, and was ground breaking for its time.
Then you have vintage Heuer..... beautiful !
Feel like we’ve been given the switch bait… where’s Michael?
A marathon is a (type of ) race?

Great opening guys😳🤣
I’m also gunna need Michael back. He was my favorite fam. At least he has another channel called Iron snail if you wanna keep seeing him but I’m sad.
Tag Heuer's ambition is truly impressive! 🙌⌚
Almost always correct the date. Not that I can generally see the dates they’re so small and my eyes are over 40.
They aren’t crushing Tudor. Come on now.

Moët is pronounced “mo-wett”, not “mo-way” - it’s a Dutch name, not French.
I never set the date
Also, I tried on the new Black Dial FXD and on my 6.5” wrist the strap is too long, The AD said Tudor didn’t have a shorter size.
I recently tried on the Skeleton Monaco Turquoise at a TH boutique and, totally agree, it is striking--such a sharp looking watch.
9:20 homie so cooked
Not setting the correct date would drive me crazy.
Tudor will still dominate.

I agree I would buy the Longines Big Eye over it
Love my solargraph. My bb58 really got pushed aside for it.
Appreciate Sam’s effort. He’s growing on me, well done this episode!
Not happening. I was just in the Tag shop in the mall of Asia. Not impressed.
what is a tudor anyway
One time it was an alternative to Rolex. Started by the same original owner
Great vid, Tag gets a bad rap, but lately they have been 🔥

Why wear a watch if it is not right? My time and date are up to date when I have it on.
