      i think they should do an actual reissue 1:1 after doing the “limited edition BS” and keep it under $800 (just to adjust with inflation) and actually get customers

    This is probably the best piece of journalism work on these Keith Heuers. A balanced, thorough & well written opinion piece. Reminds me of old Clarkson reviews. Good job my man! What a breath of fresh air amongst the current UA-cam watch scene where it’s either paid reviews or hate reaction pieces.

I can't imagine TAG Heuer going through all that effort to use the original moulds for the cases and invent a new 'arnite' material for just these limited editions.

    - I went the route of getting an original for £299 and don’t think it’s too small for me - it’s in the metal bracelet maybe that helps make it feel more adult?

    I respect and appreciate your honesty. Including the good bits, rather than just mindlessly piling onto it. This release is a lot of "could have been". Perhaps Tag will evaluate the situation and release a real version, with "Tag Heuer" branding, and priced appropriately (500 ideally, certainly no more than 999 for it, come on now). The Moonswatch was alright, by comparison. I went into a Swatch store, said to my wife "that's great but not for me" and went on with my watch collecting life. Tag was taking the Pith with this release.

    As far as im aware the second hand is not supposed to line up with the index markers on the watch face, its supposed to line up with the markers on the bezel, something to do with the bezel needing to be more accurate in a diving situation as its the bezel thats the life saver, hence why they are normaly uni directional also.

    You got it right: most watch brands don’t give a sh*t about us. I’m trying to understand this one but there is no brand strategy that justifies “butchering” the brand name and “selling out” an icon for a ridiculous partnership with a ridiculous luxury brand unless this is a money grab. This was the first watch I got, 32 years ago at 15 (still have it, obviously) with all the savings I had (and the start of this looney hobby). I’m fortunate to have amazing watches, affordable and expensive, but Tag Heuer has been in the collection through the years, down to the recent Carrera Glassbox. I know they don’t give a sh*t about us but as a hardcore fan I’m insulted by this release and I regret defending them against critics all these years.

      It's a genius move really. These are going to sell like crazy - it gets people talking about the F1s again and I suspect a standard production will come out some time in the near future (cheaper and not limited). I can't imagine TAG Heuer going through all that effort to use the original moulds for the cases and invent a new 'arnite' material for just these limited editions.

    I thought the case size was pretty bang on your wrist

    If a watch could be a Tribute band, this is it. Gabba, Beatalica and Keith Heuer....

    I had an original WA1214 stainless steel with jubilee bracelet. Got it in 1995. My first analog watch in about 13 years at the time. I was and still am a big F1 fan. That watch was stolen from my bag while playing soccer in 2003. I loved it and was sad. So I see the nostalgia appeal for this reissue. But the official timer of F1 and the Tag Heuer name and logo that was shown on F1 races was a big reason I got this watch. So Kith Heuer is a hard No for me. The price tag (pun intended) is also a hard no. But I miss the cute little F1 watch that was my most expensive watch purchase ever at that time. So I went and got one, in good condition online for around £350 ($450). Nostalgia costs, but not 1500. 😊

    The price is ridiculous. I like what Tag has been doing the past 5+ years. In fact I was close to getting a Tag before deciding on saving a while longer to get a Cartier Santos but if I didn’t have the Seiko Arnie Solar Quartz I would be buying one of Tags Solar Aquaracers.
