This year , TAG Heuer introduces the TAG Heuer Aquaracer Professional 200 , a pair of 40-mm watches in solid 18-karat gold . One will have a case and bezel in solid 18-karat 5N rose gold , and the other in solid 18-karat 3N yellow gold .
Despite the precious metals involved , both references remain modern sports watches designed for a life of adventure spent in the great outdoors . Signaling their sportiness , both have a high-contrast black DLC-coated steel screw-down crown and feature a lightweight , black DLC-coated Grade 2 titanium caseback , into which TAG Heuer ’ s engineers have inserted a sapphire crystal caseback , opening up a view into the new movement . Both watches are water-resistant to 200 meters .
In line with their high-end profile , both TAG Heuer Aquaracer Professional 200 models have beautiful gradient dials , again signaling the intense luxury of the solid 18-karat gold cases . The rose gold model has a black dial that fades elegantly into a bronze-tinted gray center . The yellow gold variant has a blue dial that shimmers at its center , like the light as one emerges from an underwater cave .
Both dials feature applied , golden-edged hour markers filled with high-grade Super- LumiNova ® for clear and lasting low-light visibility . The hour and minute hands are also filled with high-grade Super-LumiNova ®, as is the “ lollipop ” section of the central seconds hand . Both 18-karat-gold watches are set on rubber straps in black or blue to correspond to the dial and are equipped with black DLC-coated Grade 2 titanium clasps .
