TAG Heuer Professional Golf Watch

- Integrated clasp. Thanks to a patented unfolding system, the Professional Golf Watch has an invisible clasp incorporated in the watch case with double safety pushbuttons at 10 and 2 o’clock. It cannot interfere with the swing and hurt the wrist while playing golf.
- Ergonomic silicon strap. The exclusive ultra elastic silicon strap avoids any shock on the wrist, adapts its length anytime to any wrist diameter evolution and maintains perfectly the watch on the wrist always away from the glove.
- Crown at 9 o’clock will never rub the wrist during the swing.
- Elegant model. The Professional Golf Watch is slim thanks to an extra thin quartz movement, readable thanks to luminescent hands and indexes.
- Just 55 gr vs TAG Heuer classical watch=137 gr. As the Professional Golf Watch weighs only 55 grams, thanks to ultra light materials (titanium), a golfer does not feel it on his wrist while playing. It represents only 30% of the weight of an ordinary steel watch.
- 5 000 G shocks resistance. The Professional Golf Watch has exceptional shock resistance. It can withstand impacts of up to 5 000 g which is 45 times greater than those experienced during the golf swing when the club hits the ball.
