Tag Heuer differentiated the quartz watches with a coloured logo whilst the mechanical watches received a monochrome and less fussy logo.Īnother way to differentiate their quartz from the automatic movement was by the dial on the watch. However if you opted for the automatic mechanical movement from Tag Heuer, the case, like before, increased to 41mm and you did not have a coloured Tag Heuer logo.
This design was continued on the hands with them also being in a stick shape filled with lume. The new deal was a sunburst steel with Tag Heuer’ new stick hour markers filled with lume. Thai time the bezel featured larger polished minute markers and the numbers were made larger with deeper engravings for greater legibility. Their new 38mm Aquaracer looked extremely similar to the model Jack Heuer first released with its dodecagon (12 sided) bezel made from brushed and polished steel. In 2006 Tag heuer made some changes to the Aquaracer line, the biggest change was they started to use colour on the Tag Heuer logo on the dial.
One thing to note with the day-date, it only came in a 43mm case size. The Chronograph reference CAF2010 had either a royal blue or grey dial with the option of either a date or day-date function.
From 2005 to 2008 they kept on adding more chronographs as they were one of their most popular models not just in the Aquaracer line up but their whole entire watch range. Tag Heuer was determined to provide a dive watch that anyone could wear and more importantly, wanted to wear. This was also surprisingly only available in 41mm which was odd for the time as Tag Heuer normally offered chronographs in 43mm. However, the newest addition to the Aquaracer line was the addition of a chronograph in 2005. Again, like the previous generation they kept the same two case sizes available, the 38 mm for the quartz movement and 41mm for the automatic one.
Tag Heuer went on to see huge amounts of success with their Aquaracer 300m and so they kept the same name through to 2009.
