![]() I’m pleased to say the Tag Heuer is similarly improved over older (and cheaper) WearOS watches. The last WearOS watch I wore for any length of time was the Suunto 7, and the software experience was better than many others. This gives the watch more focus and makes it nicer to own, not just by those who want the cache that comes with the name, but also those who want a luxury smartwatch to wear and use each day. It has accepted this is a smartwatch and therefore needs to be suitable for everyone, not an add-on purchase picked up by its established clientele alongside a $6,350 Tag Heuer Monaco Gulf. Tag Heuer has abandoned modularity, meaning none of the major components are interchangeable, including the horns. It feels close to a traditional high-end luxury watch. I happily wore the smartwatch all day without it becoming uncomfortable. It’s not a heavy watch, at least, and the rubber strap remains comfortable. The heart rate sensor extends out of the body to ensure good contact with your wrist, increases the watch’s profile when worn. That doesn’t stop it being a pain to fit under tightly fitting shirt sleeves. However, the watch is quite thick, something visually compensated for by clever tapering around the heart rate sensor. The rubber coating on the crown is a great move, as it increases grip when using it to scroll through the menu system. The strap is thick yet soft, strong but pliable, and I adore the chamfered edge of the bezel which gives just the right amount of bling in sunlight. The hefty metal buttons - new for a Tag Heuer Connected smartwatch - have a positive action. The sapphire is wonderful to look at with its signature sheen, and it provides scratch protection.

This is important for ergonomics, as it makes the touchscreen more comfortable to use. Sapphire crystal covers the screen, and it blends directly into the bezel. That’s thanks to the minimal bezel around the lovely screen, the sleek buttons, and the sensibly sized horns. ![]() I was a little concerned about the size of the new version before seeing it in real life, as it’s a sizable 44mm wide and 13.5mm thick case, but my worry wasn’t needed. You can buy versions with metal straps, and with a matte black Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) coating. It’s understated yet classy, stylistically goes with everything, and still obviously a Tag Heuer. The Tag Heuer Connected you see here has a stainless steel case, a fixed ceramic bezel in brushed steel, plus a rubber strap.
