TAG Heuer Connected Modular Black Rubber with Black Mat Ceramic Bezel
The Connected Modular 45 is the follow-up to the company’s surprisingly successful debut smartwatch that came out last year. The company’s sophomore offering is a highly customizable device that lets you swap out the “smart” module for a mechanical timepiece, turning it into just another analog luxury watch with a multi-thousand-dollar price tag. You can change other components of the watch, too. Tag’s play on modularity focuses more on the watch’s form than its functions. When you go to the company’s website to buy the Modular 45, you can use the “Watch Selector” tool to pick your preferred module, strap and lugs. That’s similar to what Motorola did with the Moto 360, except Motorola didn’t offer options for the lugs. Not all the components are meant to be user-replaceable, either. Changing the clasp, for instance, requires a visit to a physical store. But what Tag offers is novel for a luxury watch and may appeal to a sizable fanbase that’s unlikely to balk at the high prices. In addition to customizing the watch’s hardware, you can personalize the device’s face via the onboard Tag Heuer Studio app. This lets you pick the number of hands and dials, as well as the style and color of the accents and background. The designs you can come up with here are sophisticated and generally appealing, and pair well with the watch’s aesthetic. Watch condition (please refer to photos) Case: excellent condition Clock face: excellent condition Glass: excellent condition Back face: excellent condition Bracelet: excellent condition Movement: fully operational / checked for performance, authenticity and functionality Evaluation The recent comparable model of TAG Heuer Connected Modular Black Rubber with Black Mat Ceramic Bezel and original TAG Heuer strap has a retail price of 1,650.- Euro. Also note the use of alternating polished and brushed surfaces, which helps lift the feel of the watch substantially.
