This pre-owned TAG Heuer Formula 1 chronograph delivers Swiss precision and motorsport-inspired design in a robust 43mm stainless steel package. The round case frames a striking blue sunray dial, complemented by luminous hour markers and hands for exceptional legibility in all conditions. A tachymetre bezel encircles the dial, designed for calculating speed over a measured distance—a signature feature rooted in TAG Heuer's racing heritage.
Powered by a Swiss quartz chronograph movement, this timepiece offers accuracy and reliability without the maintenance demands of a mechanical calibre. Three sub-dials track elapsed time with precision, while a date window at 4 o'clock adds everyday utility. The sapphire crystal glass resists scratches and ensures long-term clarity, whilst water resistance to 200 metres makes this watch suitable for swimming and recreational diving. A three-link stainless steel bracelet with brushed and polished surfaces provides both comfort and visual depth, secured by a fold-over clasp with safety.

FAQ
Q: Is this a genuine TAG Heuer watch?
A: Yes, this is an authentic TAG Heuer Formula 1 chronograph. Every pre-owned timepiece at Cassims & Co. undergoes rigorous authentication and inspection by our experienced horological team before being offered for sale.
Q: What does the tachymetre bezel do?
A: The tachymetre scale allows you to calculate average speed over a known distance. Start the chronograph as you pass a start marker, stop it at the end marker (typically 1km), and the chronograph seconds hand will indicate your average speed on the bezel scale—a function rooted in motorsport timing.
Q: Can I swim or dive with this watch?
A: With 200 metres of water resistance, this Formula 1 chronograph is suitable for swimming, snorkelling, and recreational diving. However, we recommend avoiding operating the chronograph pushers whilst underwater, and having the seals checked periodically to maintain water resistance.
Q: How often does the battery need replacing?
A: Quartz chronograph batteries typically last 2-3 years depending on usage frequency of the chronograph function. Our servicing team can replace the battery and pressure-test the case to maintain water resistance when the time comes.
Q: Can the bracelet be resized to fit my wrist?
A: Yes, our team can adjust the stainless steel bracelet to achieve a comfortable fit. Contact us for assistance with sizing—we're here to ensure the watch sits perfectly on your wrist.
Q: Does this watch come with original box and papers?
A: Pre-owned watches may or may not include original packaging and documentation. Please contact our team directly to confirm what accompanies this specific timepiece.
Q: Is nationwide delivery available?
A: Absolutely. We offer secure, insured delivery to anywhere in South Africa. Alternatively, you're welcome to collect in person from our Mall of the South boutique in Johannesburg.

Care Guide
- Wipe the case and bracelet regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth to remove oils, perspiration, and environmental residue.
- For deeper cleaning of the stainless steel bracelet, use warm soapy water and a soft brush, then rinse and dry thoroughly. Ensure the crown is fully screwed down before any contact with water.
- Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperatures, strong magnetic fields, or harsh chemicals, which can affect timekeeping accuracy and case finish.
- Do not operate the chronograph pushers whilst underwater, as this can compromise water resistance.
- When not in use, store the watch in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight to preserve dial colour and bracelet lustre.
- Have the water resistance tested every 2-3 years, particularly if you regularly expose the watch to aquatic environments, to ensure seals remain intact.
- If the watch takes a significant impact, have it inspected by a professional watchmaker to check for internal damage.
- Replace the battery promptly when the seconds hand begins to jump in 4-second intervals—a low-battery indicator on many quartz chronographs—to prevent potential leakage.
