Strongly upholding its status as an icon, Aquaracer is an amazing tool watch with high functionality, an appealing look, and a luxurious character that’s hard to miss. The magic of this Aquaracer Ref. CAN1010.BA0821 starts with the sizable 43 mm polished stainless steel case that signals an influential heft. The unidirectional rotating bezel is rendered in black ceramic and features a contrasting white 60-minute scale. The robust case with a well-secured crown plays a significant role in making this timepiece water-resistant up to a whopping 300 metres. Inside, a reliable quartz chronograph movement is dutifully protected.

Echoing the excellence of construction and movement is a well-designed dial that flaunts a monochromatic colour palette, neat configuration, and recognisable TAG Heuer aesthetics. It comes equipped with lume-filled hour indexes and skeleton hands along with three subdials featuring a 30-minute counter, a 1/10th of a second counter, and a small seconds counter. The date window is placed refreshingly at the 12 o’clock position.

At Second Movement, the pre-owned division of Ethos Watches, we adhere to a rigorous verification process where expert watchmakers carefully inspect every watch to certify its authenticity, ensuring it is not counterfeit. We also go to the maximum extent possible to ensure that the timepiece is not a stolen property and that all duties are paid. However, in the absence of any central database, a 100% verification is unlikely for any pre-owned entity in India. Nevertheless, we can still provide a provenance guarantee for watches purchased from Ethos.
