Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: Is this TAG Heuer Aquaracer a quartz watch? A: Yes. Reference WAF1418 is a quartz-powered Aquaracer, meaning it runs on a battery rather than automatic winding. That makes it practical for occasional wear, but if the watch stops, the battery should be replaced promptly.
Q: What size is this watch and how will it wear on the wrist? A: This watch has a 28 mm case and an approximate bracelet perimeter of 17.5 cm. It wears as a compact, classic sports watch and is especially well suited to smaller wrists or anyone who prefers a neat, understated fit.
Q: Can this watch be worn in water? A: This Aquaracer reference is typically associated with a 300 metre water-resistance specification when new, along with dive-watch features such as a screw-down crown. However, with any pre-owned watch, water resistance should not be assumed indefinitely, so we recommend a pressure test before regular swimming or water exposure.
Q: What is included with this watch? A: The product information for this listing notes a full set and box. In pre-owned watch terms, full set usually refers to the original items supplied at retail, but exact contents can vary, so the product information and images for this specific piece are the best guide to what is included.
Q: What condition is the watch in? A: It is listed in very good condition, with minimal scratches to the exterior and light scratches to the shiny hardware. Overall, it presents as a well-kept pre-owned piece with normal signs of careful wear.
Q: How do I set the date, and is there anything I should avoid? A: On TAG Heuer quartz models with a date, the crown is typically unscrewed first if it is a screw-down crown, then pulled to the date-setting position. Avoid changing the date between 9.30 pm and 3 am, as the calendar mechanism may be engaged during that period.
Q: How often does a watch like this need servicing or a battery change? A: Quartz watches usually run for several years on one battery. TAG Heuer also advises replacing a depleted battery as soon as possible, checking water resistance about every two years if the watch is used in water, and considering a full overhaul roughly every five to six years.
Q: How should I care for this watch? A: Wipe the stainless steel case and bracelet gently with a soft, dry cloth after wear. Avoid contact with perfume, cosmetics, detergents, strong magnets and prolonged direct sunlight, and always make sure the crown is properly secured after setting the time or date.
