Reference: **WAF2010.BA0818** Timestamp: [**https://trugrowth.notion.site/TAG-Heuer-Aquaracer-WAF2010-2baacf6eb95580568693cdd57c800a2d**](https://trugrowth.notion.site/TAG-Heuer-Aquaracer-WAF2010-2baacf6eb95580568693cdd57c800a2d) Stop obsessing over the "crown" for a second. While everyone else is paying a 500% markup for a logo (Rolex), the real connoisseurs are looking for the **transitional legends**. This WAF2010 is the watch world's equivalent of a "Year One" edition. It represents the exact moment in the mid-2000s when TAG Heuer realized their iconic 2000 Series was becoming a powerhouse and rebranded it as the **Aquaracer**. This isn't just a diver; it's a piece of evolutionary history from one of Switzerland’s most resilient houses. * **The "Goldilocks" Geometry:** At **41mm wide** and only **11mm thick**, this is the diver that actually fits under a dress shirt. It has the presence of a tool watch without the "chonky" 15mm slab-side ego of its modern successors. * **A Professional Grade Workhorse:** It carries **300m of water resistance**. That is the same rating as the "Sub" everyone is on a waitlist for. This was built to actually dive, not just to look pretty at a desk. * **The Calibre 5 Engine:** This isn't some generic plastic-spacer movement. It's the **Swiss Calibre 5 Day-Date** (based on the bulletproof ETA 2834-2). With 25 jewels and a high-beat frequency of 28,800 bph, it’s reliable, easily serviceable, and features that rare **full Day-Date complication**—because let's be honest, after three days at the beach, you forget what day it is. * **The "Last of the Mohicans" Design:** It features the signature six-stud bezel and the brushed/polished H-link bracelet that defined an era. It’s an aesthetic that screams "2000s cool" while remaining timelessly professional. You are looking at 90% of the functionality of a $10,000 Swiss diver for less than 1/10th of the price. While modern Aquaracers are creeping up toward $4k retail, you can snag this **era-defining classic** for a fraction of that. **The Specs:** * **Movement:** Swiss Automatic Calibre 5 (ETA 2834-2 base) * **Case:** 41mm Stainless Steel * **Crystal:** Scratch-resistant Sapphire * **Dial:** Classic Matte Black with luminous "stick & dot" indices * **Condition:** Excellent. Crystal is flawless. The case and bracelet show light, honest signs of wear—this is a tool watch with character, not a safe queen. **What’s Included:** * The watch on its original solid steel bracelet. * Sized for a 7.5" wrist + **2 additional links** included. * Insured 2-day shipping to your door. **Price: $950 (Shipped & Insured CONUS) Payment:** Zelle, Wire, or Crypto.
