movement manually by turning the crown 50 times clockwise in position 1, which will ensure that it 

runs correctly, and provide a sufficient power reserve. A self-winding movement deserves particular 

care: to maintain its accuracy, TAG Heuer Service Centres recommend an overhaul every 2 years.

Crystal.

 Your watch’s crystal has a double anti-reflective coating (inner and outer)* for optimum 

readability. This thin sensitive layer can be altered by an impact or mishandling. Under normal conditions 

of use, this coating will fully satisfy your requirements. 

Bracelets.

 To care for your metal bracelet, it is recommended to clean it with fresh water and soap 

once a month. 
Leather straps are very delicate. Particular care must be taken to avoid any contact of the leather 

with water. The crocodile leather comes exclusively from farmed animals, and its source is certified 

by customs documents. To care for your leather strap, it is recommended to clean it with a soft, dry 

cotton cloth, and avoid using any abrasive product. It is normal for the leather to become slightly 

lighter over time.
For your own comfort, it is recommended to wash your rubber strap regularly in soap and water, 

especially the inner.
To prevent any accidental opening, our bracelets come with a double safety clasp.

Gold plating.

 Some of our watches have components on which a thin layer of gold has been deposited 

by galvanic electroplating. Sensitive to friction on hard, rough surfaces, this thin layer of gold can 

wear out over time. Under normal conditions of use, the plating on your TAG Heuer watch will fully 

satisfy your requirements.

Solid gold.

 Some of our watches are made from 18 carat solid gold.

Titanium carbide coating.

 Some of our watches have components on which a thin layer of titanium 

carbide has been deposited by spraying. Sensitive to friction on hard, rough surfaces, this thin layer 

of titanium carbide can wear out over time. The international warranty does not cover the alteration 

of this thin layer by an impact or mishandling. Under normal conditions of use, the coating on your 

TAG Heuer watch will fully satisfy your requirements.
