Delivery & Returns
Q: What size is this TAG Heuer Formula 1 watch? A: The case measures 35 mm in diameter. That gives it a classic vintage sports-watch feel and, by modern standards, it will wear more like a midsize watch than an oversized one. If you are unsure about fit, compare the measurement with a watch you already wear comfortably.
Q: What makes the Ukyo Katayama version special? A: This is a distinctive vintage Formula 1 variant associated with racing driver Ukyo Katayama. Collectors are especially drawn to these pieces for their bold motorsport styling and bright, playful colour combination, which stands out from more conventional sports watches.
Q: Is this watch quartz or automatic? A: This reference is generally identified as a quartz model, meaning it is battery-powered rather than automatic. Quartz watches are popular for their ease of wear and straightforward day-to-day timekeeping.
Q: What design details does this watch have? A: According to the product information, it features a red rubber strap, yellow case, green rotating bezel, blue dial with luminous hands and hour markers, a date window at 3 o'clock, and a stainless steel case back.
Q: Can I wear this watch in water? A: Because this is a vintage watch, we recommend being cautious around water. Even if these Formula 1 models were designed as sporty water-resistant watches when new, seals and gaskets age over time. It is best to have the watch professionally checked before swimming and to avoid showering or diving unless it has been recently pressure-tested.
Q: What is the rotating bezel for? A: The rotating bezel is a practical sports-watch feature used to mark a starting point and track elapsed time at a glance. It also adds to the classic Formula 1 tool-watch look.
Q: How should I care for the rubber strap and watch case? A: Wipe the watch gently with a soft cloth and avoid harsh chemicals, oils, perfumes, prolonged heat, and strong sunlight. If the strap is exposed to salt or chlorinated water, dry it carefully afterwards. With vintage rubber straps in particular, gentle handling is wise, as older rubber can become less flexible over time.
Q: Can the strap be replaced if needed? A: Yes, the strap can usually be replaced, but compatibility matters on vintage Formula 1 watches and original-style replacements can be harder to source. Professional fitting is the safest option if you want to avoid scratches or the wrong fit.
Q: Does this watch come with box, papers, or other extras? A: According to the product information, this watch comes with no accessories.
Q: What is the condition of this watch? A: According to the product information, the watch is in very good condition overall, with light traces of use. The hardware is described as shiny with light scratches, and both the external and internal condition are noted as very good.
