In this video, I want to share my experience of buying a TAG Heuer Aquaracer Quartz 300m on eBay. In the beginning, the watch looked totally fine to me and I did not see any issues. After wearing my new Tag Heuer on my wrist for some time I have started noticing some minor things with the watch. Then I made a strange discovery that led me to think that I bought a fake TAG Heuer watch.

I bought a new Tag Heuer from an authorized dealer and went to their web site to register for warranty. When I entered the serial number, it gave me the wrong model. Then it gave me the option to enter the SN and model number, and it all popped up correctly. Maybe their computer has issues. I'm glad yours came back authentic. That's one of my fears with eBay.

Very interesting they could not explain to you about the serial numbers. I have the 500M version and the eta movement failed under warranty and then after 5 years the crown stripped after 5 years. Was very disappointed how low quality and small the threads are. It also happened to my seamaster 300. Are hardly wear the watches, my seiko drivers watches ranging from $400-1000 SKX - marinemaster that I use for work as a tradie . I have never had any problems and have had them for over 20 years. The crown threads look as big as a Rolex . I hope you don’t have any more problems, enjoy your watch and nice to share your experience with the tag .

I am in a similar situation as you except I have the WAY111A Black version. Bought it off a watch forum from an online dealer that has impeccable reputation and lots of feedback on the forum. I notice our watches are similar as if you notice in the Letter A in the TAG logo on the Ebay Tag the triangle gap is larger than the AD Bought Tag.... I brought that up with the seller who I believe thinks he's selling a legit Tag also Serial number all checks out and matches exactly the watch. Says it has warranty for 2 more years so I ended up sending it off to Tag Service today for an Authentication Check as well as a Bezel check since the clicks are only solid halfway.

After that I haven't heard anything but the Seller definitely came through for me and took care of the situation professionally.

I have that same model of Tag watch. It's the only watch I wear out of 2 I own. I wear it all the time. I have had it over 4 years. It keeps excellent time and has been used for diving upto 40 meters (though so did the £50 Casio I had which I previously wore daily and was over 10 years old.) All this stuff about watches is mostly bullshit. The Casio I had was .025% of the price and looked very similar. Had the Tag not been a gift, I'd have kept wearing the casio. No-one gives a shit what watch you wear and you can get very good high-functioning watches for a fraction of the cost of over-inflated brands.

Every 2 to 3 years. Yes the price for the battery replacement at the Tag Service Center was $105 Canadian dollars. But aside from the battery replacement they clean a watch, replace gaskets and spring bars if needed. Making sure that the watch is still waterproofed. I don’t have a trustworthy local jeweller so I would rather pay more for the service. With simple Tissot or Seiko I would go to a department store for the battery replacement.

Just watch some videos on ADs from watches channels, pretty much every watches dealer can attest that ADs do not have the ability to identify very well made fakes, they'll tell you they do, but they really don't, that also applies for service centers, if it doesn't have obvious signs of being fake they'll work on the watch and say it's real even if it's not, your Tag can be a Frankenstein watch with real parts sourced from other watches which for sure will be recognized as real, or it can use parts from the factory that produces the original parts, again it will absolutely be identified as real by ADs, and explain the wrong serial number, but at the end of the day if it's one of those cases let's be honest, your Tag is as good as any real quartz Tag, actually it kind is a real Tag, just not original, and probably will last just as long.

Hi, thanks for sharing your video. I recently purchased a watch from a fake website which has stolen another “Real Company’s” name, letterhead and company information. I tried to work out with the website first but they reply my emails extremely slow. So then I called the bank to help me assist with this situation because the website asked me to return the product first “AND THEN” they’ll refund my money. However, since it is a fake website, I don’t want to proceed any of the instructions they provided me because if I return the watch back, they may claim that the watch is OK. Therefore, I was wondering if anyone here have faced the same situation like me and how I should resolve the problem?

There are so many fakes out there and it becomes so difficult to tell due to how good they are made. I was recently about to make a purchase on an TH aquaracer from a seller near by where I live. I started to get sceptical and did not pursue on the purchase. It has a warranty card and everything else to come with the watch. The thing that made me suspicious is that the price offered is too good to be true. A third of the normal price and it was posted as new.

But I fell in love with the design of tag and decided to treat myself. Bad decission. Bezel was misaligned and the chrono hand was almost ticking. This was on an automatic watch I paid full retail for. Sent it for service and they just returned as it was so I sold it at a loss.

Here's three more seconds, and 5 more if you respond. Here's 8 seconds if you are still reading..........Here's 10 seconds if you are still reading.............you can always exit video, duh! 15 seconds....stop reading. Oh yeah, I will also never get these seconds back, but will gladly do it again. Had enough? No? Okay, watch the video over. Actually, better yet, put it on loop while you ponder the rest of your life. Okay, I'm done. Bye-bye...

Grey market watch. Real watches are broken and these guys build working watches from the parts so things like case backs and serial numbers don't line up but they're genuine components. Buy from authorized dealers.

The watch world is super dependent on keeping the watches original and only maintained by factory approved locations with factory parts. Some models are worth more than others. Example. My father has a “Pepsi” Rolex however he swapped out the bezel because he didn’t like how it kept fading. The pepsi Rolex is worth 20k in original condition. With the black bezel it isn’t worth shit. It would suck to purchase a pepsi and be send something different.

Almost all of my watches are automatic, but quartz has its place too, and I do have a couple. Sometimes you just want to grab a watch and go, and a quartz watch won't need to be set. I also prefer quartz when I'm going to be doing something that might damage an automatic. I don't baby my watches whatsoever, but if I'm knocking down a wall with a sledgehammer or something, I'll wear a quartz watch that day. My favorite quartz piece is actually an Invicta 26970, which is the quartz version of their Pro Diver model. They only cost about $50, so it's a no-brainer really.
