People say I'm crazy for spending $1,400 on this Tag Heuer , but I tell them this watch will out last your $1,300 iPhone ! .. it's a timepiece ! It's art ! And man's timeless engineering displayed on your wrist ! . My oldest watch is a Movado from 2009 ! Still running and looking like new .. $1,300 iPhones are slow and not supported after 2 years ! .
@@ComeFareCose tell that to my wife that needs to get a new iphone every 2 years cuz they slow down and their software updates eat up all her memory .. even if it last more than 2 years , it's not gonna come close to what a watch would last , the most I heard of was someone using a 4 year old iphone . Doesn't compare to the life of a simple wrist watch
@@ComeFareCose its more true of an iPhone than a Samsung, I have loads of friends still using galaxy s7 and s8 phones, meanwhile the iPhones from that generation are virtually unusable.

I've got a thing for this one, also the non-chrono blue face. My $250 Seiko automatic was my biggest purchase and I like it a lot, but I love the look and function of the Formula 1.
Hey Ronald, I just got this watch a couple weeks ago for birthday from my fiancée. And just like you, I had I think, a $275 Seiko Chrono, from 2005! Still works, looks beautiful and I have been wearing it to this day! I'm telling you, you'll love the way the F1 looks and feels! I got the black bezel style tho. I love it!!
This watch is really replica, just check movement. Original movement must be Ronda 5040D, swiss made, golden plated, 13 jewels. In your watch movement Ronda 5040D, SWISS PARTS, 6 jewels, asian version. And check bezel carefully indexes and fonts are thinner than the originals tag bezel
It's interesting, I just went to the jewellers today to look around, and I saw the one on the NATO strap and I loved it except the strap and I said that it would be amazing with an orange rubber strap, and I didn't know that they did one. I might buy the NATO if I can't get the rubber strap one and just buy a different orange strap and preserve the NATO. It looks absolutely beautiful. I mean I know what they were going for with the racing stripe on the NATO, but it matches too much to the face instead of the contrast it should have to make the blue face pop. You can then wear in with jeans and any white shirt, and you'd look a million dollars with all attention focused on your wrist as a conversation starter with anyone at all interested in watches.
Have to love the few people saying these are overpriced. Mercedes - Cadillac - Porsche are premium brands that command higher prices. People can say that you’re paying for status or a name, but that disregards the quality of components & engineering. Hyundai can try as they might with a Genesis, but it is not on par with the European luxury brands. Same with TAG; it’s the BMW of watches - some very attainable pieces in their lineup without being the Bentley or Ferrari of the Watch World.
whatever you like they are exactly the same but a color difference, the bezel on the CAZ1010 is fully black while the one on the blue is only on the face of the bezel, the dials on both are different because the black has a matte while the blue has a slight sunburst
Good video my friend but i guess that one is a replica of tag heuer caz1014....try to open the caseback...also the sharp edges of the end links...just an opinion
Does this have a Ronda 5040D? If so its crazy to think I have the same movement in my Invicta Coalition Forces with an all titanium case and bracelet for under $300. I've always liked the Tag Formula 1 but their so overpriced.
If you think TAG is overpriced, then you haven’t looked into the difference between materials versus an Invicta. Invicta watches are pure junk & you will be hard pressed to find any watch enthusiast (horologist) that thinks otherwise. I would not wear an Invicta for free & I’m no watch snob either. Plenty of solid cheap watches … starting with Casio then Seiko then Shinola if we’re talking entry-level with quality components.
i have the same watch as yours. it was given to me last christmas. May I ask if the crown of the watch does have a thread? mine does not seem to tighten it just keep rolling after I adjust the time n date
I wanna buy this watch but i can't find anywhere on the internet the lug-to-lug lenght. I dont wanna buy it and then realise that its too big. I have another 43mm watch that sits almost perfectly on my wrist but u know... dimensions may vary.. can somebody help me?
The second hand isn't the time seconds hand. Its the chrono seconds hand. Its not meant to sweep constantly. Click the top button and you'll see what I mean. Or click the bottom to reset.
I have 7 quartz watches and I'm done with them, it's Solar or Automatic from now on. I can't believe people spend over £1300 and for just a Tag quartz. And anything over £1000 is luxury - it's just not high end.
Why wouldn't people spend £1300 pounds on a quartz Tag? It's a quality watch that will hold decent value, has a background history to it, looks nice, has good build quality and it's relatively cheap. The only people who seem to dislike this watch are people who never owned one. All reviews by owners are quite positive. Also, solar and automatic have their problems, too. And it's not as if all automatic or solar movements cost hundreds or thousands. Most are quite cheap.
Agreed I have this watch the less than three years I had it sometimes it just stops working... The clasp broke I had to have that replaced and its a quartz very disapointed. I have Fossils my daughter bought that take a beating and still work.Yes way to much $$$ for a quartz watch. If you want art get a Breitling, Rolex even Hublot. You want a reliable watch that just tells time get a Fossil. When I get my Breitling Im giving it to my nephew

Totally Agree!
"$1,300 iPhones are slow and not supported after 2 years" ... no true at all. It's an iPhone not a samsung.

My first Tag Heuer.... 5 years old and going strong
I have had this watch almost a year now and still love it! I wear at it least once a week and still looks like new. It’s very eye catching
Were you able to find the orange strap?
@@CarlosPerez-cp4ty It's been very frustrating but I cannot seem to find anyone that is selling the original Tag strap. Pease let me know if you find it - Thanks
You can find the seller on eBay
Had mine 3.5 years and the battery is still going strong
6 years my battery lasts
Great details in the review. I'm thinking about getting the same model. This certainly helped my purchase decision.

That clasp is different to mine. Which I purchased from tag
its fake bro
Noticed same thing.
Nice one.. what shade of blue. is it light shinny blue or more dark/black type of a blue..
Tag heuer appeal is better than rolex because tag is connected to cars
Hi, great video! How can I recognize a replica of this watch without opening it up?
Rarely do they replicate quartz movement watches.
Authurised dealers won't sell fakes, simple.
Hello friend, I am thinking of buying that watch in a few months, do you recommend it or do I look for another option ? I loved this watch
Great video.. I'm torn between getting this vs the CAZ1010.. any thoughts?
whatever you like they are exactly the same but a color difference, the bezel on the CAZ1010 is fully black while the one on the blue is only on the face of the bezel, the dials on both are different because the black has a matte while the blue has a slight sunburst
Good video my friend but i guess that one is a replica of tag heuer caz1014....try to open the caseback...also the sharp edges of the end links...just an opinion
What is the main difference when the case back is opened?
What about the movement? Isn’t it supposed to go smoothly I could be wrong lol.
Its Mahtab no these watches do tick
@@eegh1000My friend If your into watches you know the answer.
Martin Smith I know that they tick obviously,but when it ticks it should go smoothly around not TIK TIK much it must be smooth mostly.
Hey man this watch is fake. I have the authentic one bought from an AD and yours looks off compared to mine.
Why don't they make a leather band for this watch?!
Great video!
Was it me or did I see a huge crack in the top right of the glass?
Please give all F1 drivers same watch.1300-Jules Bianchi.
Wollah niffo only rolex daytona bro
Good video man. thanks.
Does this have a Ronda 5040D? If so its crazy to think I have the same movement in my Invicta Coalition Forces with an all titanium case and bracelet for under $300. I've always liked the Tag Formula 1 but their so overpriced.
Someone has to pay for that name
If you think TAG is overpriced, then you haven’t looked into the difference between materials versus an Invicta. Invicta watches are pure junk & you will be hard pressed to find any watch enthusiast (horologist) that thinks otherwise. I would not wear an Invicta for free & I’m no watch snob either. Plenty of solid cheap watches … starting with Casio then Seiko then Shinola if we’re talking entry-level with quality components.
Yeah the Heuer is overpriced in horological terms but your Invicta isn’t the flex you think it is my guy
i have the same watch as yours. it was given to me last christmas. May I ask if the crown of the watch does have a thread? mine does not seem to tighten it just keep rolling after I adjust the time n date
Yes - it is threaded - quite tightly. I would go get yours checked out.
I wanna buy this watch but i can't find anywhere on the internet the lug-to-lug lenght. I dont wanna buy it and then realise that its too big. I have another 43mm watch that sits almost perfectly on my wrist but u know... dimensions may vary.. can somebody help me?
Its approx. 47mm
Stainless bezel? That’s disappointing, I thought they were ceramic.
Why doesn’t yours have the easy release clasp?
It's a fake obviously
Is it water resistant ?
Hafeez Javed yes up to 200 meters
How much is this in indian currency
This is defo a rep brother...you've been done over!! Just compare that bezel and its markers to a gen!
How can you say? Planning to cop one as well I wanna know.
He's chatting shit
Just got the same watch from a TAG authorized dealer and it has a push pen clasp and his has the clamp clasp
deffo fake the orginal box interior is leather, i have this watch
@@valenzuelaephjust go to a jeweller or an authorised dealer, it’s really not hard
Do you think aquaracer calibre 5 is a better deal as it’s automatic?
All personal preference but know that the Aquaracer on average is about $1000 more
depends what your using the watch for aquaracer is a dive watch, both lovely watches to be fair
You sure that's not a replica looks abit thin to me
2 years battery ? is a Ronda caliber 5040.d, 54 months battery ✅
Could you share where you bought this from?
I explain that in my other video ruclips.net/video/oBvF9s-17Bw/видео.html
Do the bezel turn or not please
No - it's not a diving watch
@@AverageJeff ok thanks just wondering because I want to buy that one and I don't want the bezel to turn thanks for the reply 👍
Is this red bull edition?
no
How do you make the 2nd hand move
The second hand isn't the time seconds hand. Its the chrono seconds hand. Its not meant to sweep constantly. Click the top button and you'll see what I mean. Or click the bottom to reset.
@@AverageJeff thanks man. I love this watch!! I got one yesterday 😁
Nice Watch my friend!
A lot of watch for the money.
Stop juggling and keep it still for 2 secs, jeeez man you're making me dizzy.
Noted - I hate shaky video as well - I'll try better next time
you know it's fake
You could just do a video taking it to that Tag dealer and shut the “it’s fake!” Idiots up
Bro its fake
Bro this shit fake as hell, and nasty at that.
