Hi all

Just started a service on my first ever TAG Heuer, an Aquaracer, from the picture below can anyone identify the movement, I can't find that logo on any list I have found.

Thanks for any help with this

Anyone notice in the documents linked above that they have a rather unusual recomendation regarding the use of Epilame.

Seems they don't apply it to the pallet or escape wheel but do apply it to the keyless works, seems a bit odd don't you think ?

you need to know where to look in the tech sheet as they do put it on the escape wheel and the pallet stones.

Swiss service guides are interesting in that they don't always show everything. They are getting better which  is why the newer ones will show where the epilam goes the old ones will not. As because previously there would have been probably a separate document. Now they're trying harder to get in one place sometimes. So as you can see from the image out of the technical document they do put epilam on the escape wheel and the pallet stones and the balance staff. Yes they always put on the balance staff.

Can anyone help identifying this "Tag" movement?

It's usually best to start a new discussion if it's a new watch. Often times discussions aren't seen as a new discussion and people may or may not bother to read the discussion. So you'd have better visibility is a new discussion

then I didn't know that there were using Chinese movements? We really need a better picture of the movement but it does not look legit at least the picture that I'm looking at

      Stem removal after fitting hands

      By Neverenoughwatches · Posted

      So leave off the seconds. Stand the movement on its edge, its the dial edge that rests on the pad ( either rubber or cork , something that wont slip ). Use a finger of your left hand to hold the movement upright,  right hand presses the release and flicks out the stem. I do it this way so i can see what I'm under a microscope. But you could hold the movement between two fingers of your left hand, its the right that has to manipulate the stem out by pushing the release and flicking out the stem with  right ring finger nail. Sounds more complicated than it actually is. I guess you could fix a push pin to something solid, then all you need to do is push the release against the pin, leaving your right hand completely free to pull the stem out.

      Try putting everything back together and closing the back cover. I think one of the two springs has to contact the metal casing to ground the casing. So when you press the button, it will touch the contact on circuit board and close the circuit.

      Yes, the seconds hand is the longest and goes almost to the edge of the dial. I can’t quite picture it how you do it on the rubber pad

      A don't think so it leaked or damaged it because the watch itself works it just the buttons ain't working not connecting with the circuit board have taken more pictures of where the buttons makes contact with the circuit board.

      I think what peter means oh is once he has fitted the hands and  checked for  alignment if them and that they dont foul, how does he then hold the movement to remove the stem in order to case up. The dial cannot be laid on a cushion or in a movement holder as the hands will get damaged. This can be quite tricky for a beginner, what i do is  to stand the movement on edge on a rubber pad so it doesn't slip. Hold the top edge with one finger then my dominant hand uses 3 fingers to press the stem release and flick out the stem. See below peter, leave off the second hand as this is the longest and gets caught the most, then fit it once the stem is out. Alternatively place the movement in one of the cup style holders, i imagine this is what they are designed for. They only touch the very edge of the dial.
