Mens Sports Watches Pro

Can you recommed a brand that is similar to Tag Heuer?

I recently lost my Tag Heuer watch and want to replace it with another Tag Heuer. However, I could not find anything I like from its recent selection. I like Tag Heuer’s sporty feeling (water proof is very important) with elegance. Higher price points than Tag Heuer’s would also be ok.

TAG Heuer was founded in 1860 by Edouard Heuer. In 1985, TAG (Techniques d"Avant Garde) acquired it. It specializes in diving watches. Most models are water-resistant 200 meters, but it made a 1000 meter model as well. I wrote a book about "578 Recent Watch Brands". Older watches said "waterproof’, e.g. my 1953 Piaget, but that phrase was banned, so now watches tell how far down they can dive underwater. Dress watches usually say 30 meters. Sports models are good 50 to 12,000 meters. I do not recall any brand that makes only or mainly diving watches like TAG Heuer, but there are many fine diving watches. I’ve owned sports models by Breguet, Audemars Piguet , Fortis, Helbros, Rolex and Piaget that are water-resistant 100 meters. Check these brands. IWC has some nice ones too, but I own only their dress models. The brands mentioned are costlier than TAG Heuer, except Helbros. Breguet has been the costliest brand of all for years, but I think some new brands will beat it now. Many people think Rolex is costly, but my dress watches by Vacheron Constantin and by Patek Philippe cost 4 times as much as a Rolex "Cellini" when I bought them.
