TAG Heuer Men's CAR2012.FC6236 Carrera Analog Display Swiss Automatic Brown Watch

I love Tag watches and always buy from authorized dealers (aka AD).Bought this watch as it was no longer available at my local AD. Also since it was on Prime day, saved 50%+ off retail.I confirmed with 3 dealers and watch is legit if sold and shipped directly by Amazon.Will still go with AD but for those that have been retired, Amazon direct is a great option.

I have owned this watch for about 6 months to the day. I bought it in a bit of a splurge to reward myself after collecting some achievement awards from work. I also have an OMEGA Seamaster, and, in a lot of ways, I like the look and feel of this watch better (this being my second automatic), probably because it's more casual. Over the past 2-3 weeks, I've noticed that the loses more than 5 minutes each hour - making it almost useless for it's prime function to keep the time. Keep in mind that I take care of my fine things very well. To me this indicates a significant quality problem for this watch at least as this wear out shouldn't happen for 10+ years. Now that I'm about to embark on use of the alternate warranty repair process, I'm a little nervous about how fast this issue will be rectified. I'll report back as to what I find in the coming days ...or months. Just be aware of my experience....
