The movement is basic but sufficient for the target demographic who wants a Swiss watch with a Swiss movement. Visible through the sapphire crystal caseback window, the mostly unembellished base automatic mechanical movement powers the watch at 4Hz (28,800bph) with about two days of power reserve. The Calibre 5 is TAG Heuer’s name for the Swiss Sellita SW200 automatic. Value certainly seems to be on the side of this new Calibre 5-equipped TAG Heuer Link Men collection (which aBlogtoWatch debuted here). Even though there are watches in the same category as the Link at lower prices, in a lot of ways, the Link offers detailing and aesthetic touches you’d often find in much more expensive watches. In its newly evolved form, the Link gains a more distinct form that is both more aggressive than previous generation models and designed to catch a lot more attention. Thoroughly updated for 2017, the TAG Heuer Link continues to be the sporty Swiss watchmaker’s answer to a men’s jewelry-esque “business” watch.
