This "Connected to Eternity" concept was a dumb bag... Tag Heuer (post- Biver) understood that people looking for a more luxury smartwatch would be looking at a newer version as technology evolves (every 2 years or so...). Customers who are willing to boost a 2000$ on a TH smartwatch, don't really care being able to re-use their straps on a mechanical module and giving up on connectivity ! Once the connected module gets outdated, they would be looking at an updated one with Snapdragon 3100, end then 4100, 5100 etc.
Tag should have kept the same fixing system on the E3/E4 (even changing the watch design) so that the Connected to Eternity concept wouldn't die. Using a mechanical module means people are not "Connected" anymore sadly.
And if some of them are also fond of mechanical watches, they would carry other TH watches like you do ;-)
Totally untrue as far as I’m concerned. The tag Heuer connected E2 offered an unprecedented selection of straps buckles and lugs to design a watch combination as you like. The straps selection are amazing and look amazing on the mechanical heads also. The mechanical heads also offer good value. No other mechanical watch offers this selection.

Hi everyone Sorry, newbie here and just purchased a calibre e3 golf edition manged to set it up ok (I think), just a couple of questions,
Do I need both the wear OS and Tag Heuer connected apps on my phone?
When I charge the watch will it not sit on the charging disc supplied without removing the strap? I can’t seem to sit it on the disc with the strap connected

I haven't, but I believe the only difference is aesthetics. The regular model has all of the same features, including the Golf app. Or is there something I'm missing?

Hi..
I want to replace the spring pins that fits the strap to the lug of the E3 (the are little bent)..
Tag heuer service requires me to leave the watch with them for 4 weeks to get this done!! Anyone can guide me of the size (length and diameter) so that I can order them.. and how to replace them?

I like the design, it has not the TH personality and clear Carrera 45mm look of Gen1 and Gen2, but it’s nice 👍

But I think it’s a big step backwards vs Gen2 in too many areas, and at higher price: no Modular, Oled vs Amoled, Steel vs titanium (or even much higher price: the Gen3 with titanium case and rubber strap is 2250€ vs 1400€ from Gen2), much less strap and bracelet options and in not so premium materials... and after today launch, I have discovered another step backwards: it’s not SWISS MADE like Gen2... it’s CHINA! 😲 So the big price increase is even more difficult to understand 🤔



So for sure I will keep enjoying my Gen2 Modular 45, and will wait -at least- until Gen4

@Hubert , I agree with your choice: the version with the steel bracelet and the full black version with titanium case are my favourites from current range 👍
E2 was also AMOLED... ;-)

Yes, of course. I was talking about E2 being AMOLED vs E3 being announced as just OLED
