Black titanium case + dive watch credentials…

TAG Heuer is set to introduce a cool new model in its Aquaracer dive watch line – the Aquaracer 500m “All Black”.  It is a full-featured dive watch, starting with a lighweight, brushed-finish case made of titanium and coated in black-titanium carbide.  The screw-down crown is rubber coated as is the unidirectional bezel.  There is also a helium escape to accommodate the 500 meter water resistance rating.  The dial and hands also keep with the black theme – the hands are luminescent and the dial also has a verticial-striping effect to it that looks great.  There is a date window as well.  The case back is “smoked sapphire crystal” which I would guess looks pretty cool.  Rounding out the watch is a black rubber strap with a matching titanium clasp.  No word yet on price, but I expect this to be a popular watch given its full lineup of dive watch credentials paired with the titanium metal case and the “all black” color theme.  Coming September 2010.
