3 0 Saturday, 16 July 2022 Edit this post

The Aquaracer Professional 300 collection by TAG Heuer includes a new steel version characterised by a vibrant orange dial. Orange is the colour of maritime safety as it stands out clearly against the blue of the sea. In fact, orange is just the opposite of blue on the colour wheel.

Protected by a sapphire glass integrating a magnifier over the date at 6 o’clock into the underside of the glass so that the surface is smooth to the touch, the dial of the new Aquaracer Professional 300 Orange Diver features the typical engraved horizontal lines and offers excellent readability thanks to its black indexes and hands coated with white Super-LumiNova to contrast with the background.

Offering water resistance to 300 metres / 1,000 feet, the 43 mm stainless steel case of this timepiece is equipped with a 12-sided unidirectional rotating bezel that integrates a scratch-resistant black ceramic insert with a a 60-minute scale to measure elapsed dive time.

The lines of the case are highlighted by the alternation of satin-brushed and polished surfaces. The screw-down crown is protected by two guards, a detail that enhances the look of the watch while making it even sturdier.

The caseback is decorated with the scaphandre diving suit that first appeared on the Aquaracer case back in 2004, here reinterpreted with a faceted contour.

The movement of choice is the self-winding TAG Heuer’s Calibre 5 beating at the frequency of 4 Hz (28,800 vibrations per hour) with an autonomy of 38 hours.

Completed by an integrated and tapered metal bracelet equipped with a folding clasp with two safety push buttons and a fine adjustment system that can extend or reduce the bracelet length by up to 1.5 cm, the new TAG Heuer Aquaracer Professional 300 Orange Diver ref. WBP201F.BA0632 has a suggested retail price of Euro 3,100 / US$ 3,300. tagheuer.com
