HOW MUCH PRESSURE CAN YOU RESIST?
Pressure? The only pressure is the one we put on ourselves. This is the driving force behind the new AQUARACER 500M CALIBRE 5, a luxury watch inspired by the extreme requirements of professional deep-sea diving.
Pushing the limits: The AQUARACER 500M CALIBRE 5 surpasses the depths and bounds of reliability, precision and prestige.
TAG Heuer’s strong links to the high-pressure world of watersports began in 1895, the year it patented its first waterresistant case. In 1950, it launched the Mareograph, the world’s first chronograph with tide and regatta indicators. In 1982, it launched the 2000 collection, its first professional diving series and the precursor to the prestigious Aquaracer line.
With the new AQUARACER 500M CALIBRE 5, the latest addition to the Aquaracer collection, TAG Heuer delivers its most remarkable watersports watch to date. It is outfitted with the superlative characteristics that have come to represent both the essence of the TAG Heuer brand and the crucial features of all professional sports watches.
On the AQUARACER 500M CALIBRE 5, these critical qualities have been pushed to a new extreme of luxury performance:
GUARANTEED WATER RESISTANCE TO 500 METERS
Subjected to the Swiss watch industry’s manufacturing and operating tests – the most exacting and rigorous in the world.
UNIDI RECTION AL TURNING BEZEL
A strong and emblematic design component and an essential safety feature that makes the model instantly recognizable as a diving watch. With brushed steel numerals surrounded by rubber molding.
EASY-GRIP STUDS & OVERSIZED SCREW-IN CROWN
The 43mm brushed-steel case is fitted with six studs to facilitate handling with diving gloves. The fine-brushed, color-coated, screw-in crown has double safety gaskets to prevent dust or water penetration.
DIAL WITH VERTICAL STREAK EFFECTSpecial luminescence markers on the hands and indexes and an orange-tipped secondhand make reading easy in dim light or under water. “500 M” appears next to the date window at 9 o’clock, which is magnified. “Calibre 5” and “Automatic” appear at 6 o’clock.
AUTOMATIC HELIUM RELEASE VALVE
Providing functionality for professional divers operating at great depths for prolonged periods of time.
SCRATCH-RESISTANT SAPPHIRE CRYSTAL AND CASEBACK
For better visibility, the front crystal’s interior is anti-reflection treated.
TAG HEUER AUTOMATIC CALIBRE 5 MOVEMENT
Swiss-Made Automatic 26mm movement (Calibre ETA 2836-2) with engraved “Côtes de Genève” oscillating mass.
The TAG HEUER AQUARACER 500M CALIBRE 5 is a high-tech, high-performance diving instrument made to last forever, and a prestigious design object of superlative luxury style. Technically advanced, masculine and authentic: these are the key words for a new TAG Heuer time instrument embodying the very spirit of the depths.
