TAG Heuer AQUARACER CALIBRE S REGATTA User Manual

INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on choosing the TAG Heuer Aquaracer Calibre S Regatta chronograph with its
exclusive new movement, the Calibre S. Developed and patented by Tag Heuer, it is a world's first
and we thank you for your confidence.
The Aquaracer Calibre S Regatta chronograph operates in three modes:
– TIME mode showing the time and date
– CHRONO mode accurate to 1/10th sec with optimum readability
– REGATTA mode with a minute countdown specially developed for use in sailing races.
This new movement, which is a direct result of TAG Heuer's expertise in sports timing at the
highest level, provides the traditional functions of time, date, and chronography. In addition,
because the start of a sailing race is often a critical phase, it enables a sailor to:
– Set the countdown according to the race regulations (the length of the countdown to the start
varies between different regattas)
– Countdown the time from the first starting signal to the last
– Synchronize the countdown with the intermediate signals
– Start the watch automatically when the countdown reaches zero.
By choosing our Aquaracer Calibre S Regatta you have opted for technical innovation, precision and
endurance. Meeting these criteria of high-performance sports has been TAG Heuer's mission since 1860.
TAG Heuer is passionately devoted to the measurement of small fractions of time and has
registered numerous technical patents in this field. The company has become the official
timekeeper of major sports competitions and the world leader in sports watches.
Each TAG Heuer watch is designed to meet the most stringent standards. The materials we use
give our watches exceptional strength, even under very demanding conditions. We give particular
care to the standard of finishing. Before being launched on the market, each new product is
submitted to more than 60 tests for precision and quality. At the same time, your TAG Heuer watch
has been individually tested to guarantee that it is water resistant and functions perfectly.
With its unique, modern design your new TAG Heuer chronograph combines tradition and technical
achievement. We are confident that it will give you complete satisfaction.
