Summary

The prime quality Swiss automatic movement gives a reserve of up to 38 hours which is reasonable. Despite the large size, the watch is extremely lightweight which makes it an ideal match to a varied range of dress styles and fashion choices. The case, construction, and accuracy of this watch match those of a much higher cost, reaching close to what one would hope from a prime Swiss tourbillon. Between the 45-mm wide case with its perfectly round dial and the complete skeletal display of the finely tuned movement, everything screams superiority. This is no ordinary watch.

Superior Construction

Hand-polished and boasting fine-brushed faceted indexes contrasted by a grey background, this is one of the best automatic watches under $2,000 for those who value formal elegance and sophistication of design. Despite the sleek, striking appearance of this automatic watch from Tag Heuer it is surprisingly durable. It’s near impervious to scratches. It’s also extremely comfortable, and the movement of the piece itself is crisp and smooth. Timekeeping is far more accurate than cheaper automatic movements.

Top Quality from Tag Heuer

This watch is a clear cut above the rest.
