TAG Heuer x Hondinkee Seafarer

5.0

As a watch enthusiast, the TAG Heuer x Hodinkee Carrera Chronograph Seafarer immediately appealed to me. Here are my impressions: What I like: The revisited heritage. This watch is a magnificent tribute to the iconic 1968 Heuer Seafarer. I love how TAG Heuer has modernized this vintage design while retaining its original spirit. The opaline black dial with its blue counters is simply superb. It evokes the marine world and the spirit of adventure. Useful complications: The tide gauge complication combined with the chronometer is a real asset. As a surfer, I know this function will be very useful for anticipating the tides. The moon phase adds a touch of poetry to the watch. The usefulness of complications doesn't stop at surfing; I plan to use it on my fishing trips, or even for mushroom picking. Technicality: The TH20-13 movement with its 80-hour power reserve is impressive. It's very practical to be able to leave the watch aside for a weekend without worrying about winding it. The bidirectional oscillating weight is very efficient and allows for optimal winding. The glassbox crystal is a detail I really appreciate; it gives the watch depth and a vintage look. The strap: The braided rubber strap is both comfortable and durable, perfect for water sports. The folding clasp with the "Easylink" is great to use over a wetsuit or when you've had too much at Grandma's. Exclusivity: The fact that this is a limited edition (968 pieces) in homage to the Heuer 2446C makes this watch even more special to me. What I don't like: The 42mm case size, which might not fit all wrists. I would have preferred to see it on a 39mm case (I have a 15.5mm wrist). The weight and 14mm thickness may bother some people looking for a thinner, lighter watch. What I would have liked: An additional black NATO strap with a blue stripe in the middle for winter use, and/or a leather strap like the original from 1968. Why I bought it: As a collector, I'm always on the lookout for unique pieces steeped in history. The TAG Heuer x Hodinkee Seafarer perfectly meets these criteria. It's a watch that's elegant, sporty, and technical, with true maritime DNA. In short, this watch is a favorite. It perfectly combines aesthetics, technical prowess, and history, and I can't wait to wear it on my next adventures.
