This was my first Tag Heuer, although I had to buy it twice...; I had bought the first one initially with Mercedes hands in 1998, but that was stolen from me at gun point in São Paulo in early 1999. I traveled to the US and found the same one, except for the hands, to replace it.
Originally bought it with the metal band, which I still have and is in excellent condition. Later I bought an original leather band from TH, but this one came apart. Decided to get one new one, and I found a nice one from Watch Strap World on Amazon.
I am wearing it again, really love the Kirium design.
