This is my first product from Tag Heuer and I was apprehensive to purchase it not only because of no previous experience with the brand but also buying from an unauthorized dealer, but I decided to give it a chance and buy direct from Amazon.
I've had the Aquaracer 500M Calibre 5 Automatic for a week now and I'm thrilled with it. The quality of the wristwatch is very high. The watch itself is a large piece but I have big wrists so it doesn't look gigantic on my wrist. People with smaller wrists may be put off by the size of the watch though. I didn't have to make any adjustments to the band to wear the watch, it fit properly right out of the box. The watch is also heavy but both the size and the weight give it a satisfying substantial feel. The rotating bezel turns effortlessly and the design is such that the black portion is ribbed and actually slightly recessed, which should help preserve it from scratches over the long run. The face of the dial is also ribbed and has an interesting textured look to it. The large size of the face makes it very easy to read. The date is magnified with a "cyclops" at the 9 o'clock position rather then the traditional 3 o'clock position. The magnification is strong, though I would not say it's as strong as a Rolex. At night the hands and dial glow adequately but I would not call it bright. The case back has an observation window so you can see the internal components of the movement. The clasp includes an expansion for placing the watch over a wet suit if it is to be used for diving.
I have previous experience with a Tudor "automatic" watch that was very poor, so I was very concerned at how accurate and reliable the Aquaracer 500M would be. I've set the date and time once via [...] and thus far after one week it has lost 4 seconds so it's operating well within acceptable automatic watch specs, some might even say it's running exceptionally well. I check the accuracy daily. I've experimented with the old "self regulation" tricks to see how they effect the 500m and I've found putting the watch crown up at night results in -2 seconds, laying it flat results in -4 seconds, and placing it crown down yeilds +2 seconds. The loss in time since setting can be accounted for, it appears, by the positions I've placed it in at night. If concerned about the accuracy the Aquaracer 500M is also available in a quartz(battery operated) model.
Shipped from Amazon the watch arrived promptly and the serial number, manuals and box were all intact. The international warranty card was not included however, but the watch is covered by a warranty direct from Amazon.
After one week of owning the watch I can hardly think of a negative comment about the Aquaracer 500M. The only thing I can think of is the brushed stainless finish, while beautiful, scratches very easily. Light scratches appear to be easily buffed out with a Scotchbright pad however.
In my search for a new watch I was considering the Rolex Submariner and the Omega Planet Ocean besides the Aquaracer 500M. I decided on the 500M due to Amazon's price and I was comfortable with a warranty through Amazon. I am 100% satisfied with the purchase and the Submariner and Planet Ocean are distant memories.
