TAG Heuer Men's CAU2012.FT6038 Formula 1 Analog Display Automatic Self Wind Black Watch

I bought this watch about a year ago. After about two months I wore it on a motorcycle trip. At some point on the trip I saw one of the hands had broken off inside. I sent it under warranty to be repaired. It was fixed at no charge. Several months later I was wearing while riding my mtn bike and realized a very similar thing happened. Again one of the hands had come off and the watch no longer worked. I received word from the dealer who repairs them that it would not be fixed under warranty and the cost would be nearly $1000. I was astonished and disappointed. I contacted them to discuss my issue and they replied telling me that the watch had received a blunt force which damaged the internal workings. I assured them that it had not received any such blow. I knew the watch was in perfect order. I was very disappointed and was able to work out with them a deal where I paid for the parts and not the labor. I was not too happy but it did save me about $400 in labor. At the end of the day I felt like the watch should have not had any issue. I would highly suggest NOT wearing this watch during activities where the watch will move around alot. The internal workings of this watch (which is internal winding) does not do well under those circumstances. I like the watch but was disappointed it couldn't hold up to my type of riding activity. Afterall, it is a sports type watch and screams take me to the races!

Good
