TAG Heuer Aquaracer Leonardo DiCaprio Edition

Blue, blue blue…

The first TAG Heuer watch co-designed by Leonardo DiCaprio, it is emblazoned with either a NRDC or a Green Cross International logo on its dial.   Royalties generated from its sales go directly to the two environmental organizations, as part of a multi-million dollar initiative spearheaded by Leonardo DiCaprio.  My watch friend Lex who runs Oceanic Time recently featured the watch which reminded me of my hands-on encounter with the watch a couple months ago at a local dealer.  Up close and personal, I was impressed with the color — it is quite vibrant and beautiful.  Even the crown is blue!  Price is about $1,800.

TAG Heuer Aquaracer Leonardo DiCaprio Edition

43mm brushed steel case, TAG Heuer Caliber 5 automatic movement, electric blue dial with meridian line effect, blue bezel, date window at 9 o’clock with a magnifying glass,”Green Cross” or “NRDC” logo, matching blue rubber strap

    First time in years that I like a Tag Heuer (which I can afford)

    Nice to see Tag Heuer giving back. And having Leo promote it is also a nice gesture.

    I purchased this as my first nice watch for my 21st.
    Since then I have purchased the Gulf Monaco and Carrera Day-Date but I still find myself wearing this far more than either of the others.

    The blue is so vibrant and looks great, and the brushed/polished/brused steel band just makes the blue ‘pop’ evan more.

    Just thought I’d share my own two cent, I love this watch and although it may not be the most expensive or the prettiest, it is my favorite.

    Now if they make one in the red of the old silverstone I’ll be a very happy boy!

      Hi Ben — congrats — what a great watch to own! I tried it on and thought it was a very awesome looking watch.

        I did see that, its great.
        Too bad they’re only making one of them?
        Maybe one day . . . .
