Formula 1 Tag Heuer watches have increasingly popularized both racing enthusiasm and the Tag Heuer brand. I was first introduced to this iconic brand by my little cousin, who wanted nothing more than to get a Formula 1 watch for his 12th birthday. Being that I had very limited knowledge as to what a formula one watch actually is, I decided to conduct some research and price comparison.

Surprisingly, I came to the conclusion I was probably the only person on the internet that didn’t know what  Tag F1 wristwatches are, and worse, the only person in the world who had never heard of Tag Heuer. It was like Googling Nike and realizing it’s a popular shoe brand. After browsing through several sites that feature the watch, I found online watch sites to be incredibly time-saving as well as exceedingly cheaper than retail stores.

I was initially reluctant to place an order for such an expensive timepiece online, but soon realized the site offering the Formula one was legitimate. One of the fastest ways to check a site’s legitimacy is by looking through their feedback rankings on Bizrate, EBay and NEXTAG. This will also alert you as to the quality of customer service the site offers. The site I purchased the F1 from provided great customer service and was able to explain all the features and functions of the timepiece in terms that were comprehensible to me. I received the item overnight, just in time for its celebratory occasion.

I was uncertain as to whether the online watch portal would provide paper work for the watch, given that they were not actual authorized retailers for the brand. Their customer service representative explained in detail how all relevant paper work for the watch including the warranty, manual, serial number and authentic box would be provided. The “authorized” status of dealers only means you will pay retail pricing at these stores. The same watches are offered at great discounts on legitimate websites like the one I purchased from.

Another convenient factor to online purchasing is the ability to browse hundreds of watches from home. At retail stores, I would have spent weeks browsing different shopping malls for the right watch. In the event the watch suffers a malfunction, the site I used will service it for free during the warranty period, as well as pay for shipping and handling! I am definitely going to purchase more time pieces now that I have become knowledgeable of the Tag Heuer brand and have discovered the wonders of shopping for watches online.

When it comes to luxury watch design, the fashion world has very contrasting views on what is hot and what is not. Some fashion designers prefer modern watch designs with sleek angles and smooth curves. Others prefer more classic square cases with Roman numeral dials. Classic watches such as Rolex and Cartier tend to fall along more traditional watch design formats. Blunt right angles, bulky cases with symmetrical features and silver-gold bracelets are characteristic of this style.

Modern-design watches such as Omega, Tag Heuer and Gucci incorporate asymmetrical, ergonomic angle schemes which challenge traditional visual aesthetics. The Gucci 103 collection for example, has a case which looks like an abstract oval. Its dials vary from champagne gold with flower patterns, to silver-diamond dials on a Mother Of Pearl background. Omega design commemorative watches for the Olympics, James Bond movies, and the legendary Moon Watch, which was the only watch ever worn on the moon. Their time pieces have bulky cases, yet curved edges with innovative bracelet styles. The Tag Heuer Carerra watch has one of the most contemporary outlines, and modern dials. The chronograph version has a dial which mirrors a racing car’s dashboard and a variety of straps with spherical carvings.

More classic watches such as the Cartier Santos 100 have traditional leather straps, with deployment buckles. Their case is almost perfectly square, and a Roman numeral dial is standard on all collections. Rolex watches also incorporate Roman numeral dials for many of their models. Classic watches are also a better option when attending sophisticated social gatherings or business meetings. They portray class, taste and most importantly distinction.

Whichever design suits you best, keep in mind, not all watches should be worn in any circumstance. Some classic designs are appropriate at a cocktail gathering, while other more modern ones are a better fashion statement at social meetings.
