TAG Heuer

Aquaracer Lady 300m Ceramic
In 2016, tag Heuer launched its first collection of watches made entirely from ceramic with several new versions of the famous Aquaracer Lady. Options in all white or jet black with rose gold bezel & markers. At 35mm the new editions are slightly larger than the previous 27 mm or 32mm versions. Rated to 300 meters and lighter than steel, the high-tech ceramic case and bezel are incredibly hard, yet soft to the touch and hypo allergenic. So too are they almost scratch proof and will keep their color without fading- almost indefinitely. tag has chosen a quartz option for the ladies and also offers a version with a thin row of diamonds on the bezel. Retail price ranges from $ 2,550- $ 3,750.
