Tag Heuer Aquaracer - Recent Questions, Troubleshooting & Support

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! I had a similar issue and this saved me!!!!

I had the same problem with my Tag. Same 4 second jump. It's definitely the battery. I'm surprised at only 3 months, but maybe it sat a while in the display case. Mine was over a year and a half.

Try setting the crown to position 2 - i.e. the position normally used to adjust the date.  Then use the top and bottom stopwatch buttons to adjust the minute hand and 1/10th hand respectively.

You need to get out your jeweler's loupe (best at 5x & 10x)... and look for the threads to "*****" (ski-rue) down your winder-stem (not a lock). (Features a Ski-rue down crown & back case) YOU can pretty much be assured that if the "stem" collar is malfunctioning (broken) the "water-proof" element is compromised (that's most likely the least of your troubles). More importantly... if the STEM does not properly "tighten" it can cause further damage against gears which MUST align with it... further it can come all the way out and be lost... Not an inexpensive part. Best direction would be to get it serviced by an authorized agent.

The Best you Can do is to ask the price for the Replacement.If the price is around 50$ continue with the replacement.If the Battery is much more you must find an Topic watchmaker.I am doing this in Greece and I make battery replacement for 30 Euros.

Unscrew the crown, start the stop watch on the time signal. Stop the second hand at 12 o'clock and reset the time (taking out the back lash on the minute hand) Start the watch as the stop watch second hand hits 12. Screw down the crown. Done.
