    Hi just wondering if anyone else has charging issues with their connected 45
    When I place the watch onto the charger it sometimes will charge and other time it won’t unless I manouver it left right or up and down
    I’ve cleaned the contact etc but it’s still random apologies if this was posted by others before but I looked and couldn’t find any posts

    Hi Jcr!
    I have my CM 45 since 2 month ago, and charging system is perfect. No issues at all. I first connect the magnetic charger to the watch (putting both Tag logos in line), and then I connect the plug to the 220V. It charges always at the first attempt, and it shows the charging face if the watch was switched off.
    Maybe something in your charger is wrong... try to solve it with the watch warranty. At least, the charger is the less expensive part of the CM 45!

    anyone else find issues with connected 45 and charger
    It rarely charges on first contact I have to keep adjusting the watch on the charger to eventually get a clean connection

    I've just posted on Jcr's post on 19th that I was having charging issues and then read Albert-AMGs post above, so connected puck first then turned on and it worked! So does this mean its important to connect first then turn on?
    Or was it just luck?

    Hi! I do this way as indicated in the Owner’s Manual (chapter C1), and after nearly three months using the TH CM 45 every thay, the charger is working 100% of the times at first attempt.

    I ended up going back to the Tag shop where I bought it and they gave me a new charger - had no issues since but I agree it’s not a great design

I’ve had a problem 3 days ago, watch is 5 months old, I noticed the battery was getting warm whilst charging. 2 hours later I’m presented with this and a dead watch. Plugged directly into a USB port into the wall socket (no plug) original wire as well. Sent it back and told to expect it back in Feb 19!!!
