Another interesting detail is the use of red color on the chronograph hands which gives a sporty appeal to the watch, mimicking sports watches from the 70’s and at the same time helps segregate the chronograph functions on the watch. The entire handset has a baton style shape with a broad polished hour and minute hands along with slender chronograph hands.

The applied hour markers have been faceted giving a nice dimensionality to dial and have also been polished echoing the finish on the case. Presented in either black or blue, the main dial offers a nice backdrop to the highly contrasting white subdials at 6, 9 and 12. In spite of having 3 chronograph registers along with a date window, the dial looks quite balanced and easy to read. One of key elements that is crucial to the success of any watch is legibility and it seems that the design team at TAG Heuer had this at the back of their mind while designing the dial of these watches.
