Launched in the early 1980s as the Heuer 2000, TAG Heuer’s dive series was designed to survive North Sea oil platforms. In 2004 the collection evolved—thicker bezels, more lume, and a new name: Aquaracer. Show more
From Heuer 2000 to Aquaracer Professional 300 m
1982–2003: 38 mm tool watches, aluminum inserts.
2004–2020: 41 mm and 43 mm steel, introduction of the ceramic bezel dive watch.
2021–Present: Tapered lugs, octagonal indices, Professional 300 m and slimmer Professional 200 m lines.
(Pro tip: for daily wear, a 40 mm TAG Heuer Aquaracer 40 mm automatic price new is easier under a cuff.)

FAQ - Aquaracer
Are TAG Heuer Aquaracer watches good for scuba?
Yes—both Professional 300 m and Night Diver models meet ISO‑style requirements and feature screw‑down crowns, ceramic bezels, and fully lumed indices.
Do tag heuer aquaracer hold value?
Expect 65 % of retail after two years; limited colors and the Solargraph titanium trend higher.
How do I change the date on a TAG Heuer Aquaracer?
Unscrew the crown, pull it to the first click (second click is time‑setting), then rotate clockwise until the correct date appears. Push the crown back and screw it down firmly. Avoid making the adjustment between 8 p.m. and 2 a.m.; the date mechanism is engaged and forcing it can damage the gears.
Does a TAG Heuer Aquaracer have a battery?
Only quartz versions—such as the 32 mm ladies or older 200 m models—use a silver‑oxide battery that lasts about 3–4 years. Automatic and Solargraph references are battery‑free: the Calibre 5 and Calibre 7 are self‑winding, while the Solargraph’s capacitor is recharged by light.
