New Tag Heur accidentally released on their site

Just that really
Saw it on YouTube that a new ‘dive watch the Autavia Isograph was on Tag Heurs site last weekend but luckily someone got an image
It looks very good and for someone who hasn’t bought a Tag since 1993 it might just be the start of something good for the company

TAG is hoping at least by leaking on purpose there will be some interest towards the brand or else its always no one cares as usual!

I’ve been disappointed with Tags of late. I still have my F1 watch which I bought in 1993 but haven’t been inspired with their offerings. Their foray into the smart watch market doesn’t seem to be going well either. The Monaco is something I hope to own one day

Hahah! I know this isn't entirely the case, but I def view Tag as the non-WIS, I-bought-it-at-the-mall brand.

Same here. Though I like their Skeleton Calibre 01 43mm. Just because it's odd and weird

It’s now officially on the Tag Heur site with deliveries expected to start mid June. I’ve started to look at the IWC pilots watches. This merits serious consideration as an alternative and at a significantly lower price. The more I look at it the more I like it

This was a great release from Tag. Hopefully this helps bring the brand back as the only interesting thing in their line up is the Monaco. Even the Carrera's have gotten pretty bad.

If this merits a look then so does the Hamilton Field, Ulysee Nardin diver, Oris 65/Brashear and Laventure watches are all great ETA Sports/pilots/diver options. UN is IWC/Tag prices

i like and enjoy wearing a couple tags we have and picked up second hand a few years ago but if the new prices are approaching IWC and U. Nardin territory they must be relying an awful lot on advertising hype to pull that off.

I have a TAG Aquaracer since 2009. Surprising tough and still in my rotation.
But is it true that ISOGRAPH has been recalled due to some manufacturing defect?

It used to be in their website. Now it is gone!

Yeah, these were pulled due to something with the Isograph movement; I don't know the details.

Unfortunate since they look outstanding. I was hoping to add one to my collection.

I recently purchased the Aquaracer GMT .Pepsi..very happy .robust design and surprisingly accurate.1-2 seconds a day fast.the watch really has some presence.bracelet is nice and beefy.its my first Tag Heuer and I would buy another .I was in the market for a GMT.couldnt afford Rolex or Tudor and decided on Tags GMT because of the 300 metre water resistance rating..very happy . I consider it my second luxury watch along with 1989 Rolex Sub date 16610
