What do we think of these new aquaracers; https://www.ablogtowatch.com/tag-he...r-models-with-tortoise-shell-inspired-bezels/
First impression is good, like them a lot! I wonder about the straps though, looks like leather and stitching but articles online refers to it as alligator print. Makes sense if the whole strap is rubber but design wise I am not convinsed
The blue I think would work a lot better in a forged carbon case. The black/brown has a cool Ray-Ban look and I like it. But at 43mm these Aquaracers wear way too large for me
Right so I guess the WAY101K isn't coming out after all then.... shown at Basel 2019. Despite the fact that this website has been selling it for the last six months (At least) https://www.swisswatchesdirect.co.uk/watch/way101k.fc8264_tag_heuer_mens_watches_aquaracer_(43mm)
Quite like the blue too- used these as the opportuinity to cover five of the new Aquaracers, with some live shots of the Aquaracer Kermit https://www.calibre11.com/2020-tag-heuer-aquaracer-300m-collection/
The new rubber strap looks good. I suppose it's similar to the ones introduced for the 2020 Connected. Does it also have the quick release?
I find that depends on what your wearing and what watches you've had on recently. Some days my 41mm AR feels spot on, other days it's tiny and I wish I'd bought the 43mm Agree about the blue, I like that.
I like the blue version, but I don't like that the straps are rubber with alligator pattern imitating leather What the fake! The alligator leather on a 300 meters diving watch doesn't make much sense either. I would like the strap much more if it had another rubber design, without pretending to be alligator leather
