The blue will probably prove to be the most popular, but the other two options still hold their own. There are three dial options: silver, black, and blue sunray. A quality that is carried through from the slim profile of the case. Seamlessly tapering away and gently moulding to sit flat against the wrist. And just like its predecessor, it’s fully integrated into the case. Twin S-shaped links follow suit and are also vertically brushed with polished rounded edges, and have a way of catching reflections to create a lively mix of light and shadow. While the case is all new, the Link is all about the bracelet, it’s where it gets its name from after all. The smooth lines mean that this Link is elegant and dressy, but with subtle crown protectors and 100m of water resistance, it harkens back to the sportiness of the 1987 original. With satin brushing and polished edges creating contrast and emphasising its silhouette, particularly on the two-piece bezel. Now measuring 41mm, the case of the updated Link treads the curved line between a round and cushion shape. At least that was until last year when it was relaunched in the women’s collection, and this year it’s the men’s turn. In recent years, however, the Link was overshadowed by the other big players in the TAG Heuer catalogue. First released in 1987, the Link began life as the TAG Heuer S/EL (short for Sports Elegance) and throughout the ’90s was one of their most successful models. And in the case of the new TAG Heuer Link it can actually be a very good thing. And just getting yourself up and down from a chair now takes effort and involves a distinctly loud groan. It’s an age when we’re expected to be mature and take life seriously. So, have another look at the cool, clear lines of the latest Link in Cam’s review …įor some, turning 30 is a daunting occasion. It’s such an evocative design for the brand, and one that is due for a serious comeback (if everything else ’90s is an indication).

See Chart below for the different color combinations. They all have scratch-resistant sapphire crystals covering the dial and a smooth polished fixed (non-rotating) bezel. The TAG Heuer Carrera Calibre 5 Day-Date series has several watches with nice combinations of dial colors, accent colors, and band materials. In fact, all the different models that have stainless steel accents carry a lower list price than their rose gold-toned rivals including those that have a steel bracelet which would normally cost more than one with a leather strap. While the rose gold and black model is a classy piece of eye candy, the same watch with steel indexes and hands, reference # war201a.fc6266 has a list price that is slightly less than the one with rose gold-toned accents, indexes, and hands. A jet black crocodile/alligator leather strap sets off the shiny metals used in the watch giving it a slick, jet-set look. In addition to being easier to read, the larger dial makes this a great watch for those with a larger wrist. This particular watch really pops thanks to the contrast between the stylishly beveled and brushed rose gold plated indexes, dark black dial, and the rose gold plated hour and minute hands which contain luminescent fill. The model depicted in the image at the very top of this article is reference # war201c.fc6266 which has a clean but classy opaline black dial with a nice micro-textured sunray dial effect. The watch itself is solidly built and feels that way too with its 12mm thick stainless steel case. This is a new 41mm men's watch with a design that looks like a classic watch but with more modern subtleties. Enjoy our TAG Heuer Carrera Calibre 5 Day-Date Review.
