Jim, that bracelet looks like it could take on a tank and win!

Very nice pal, one of a few Tags that I really like.

Mine too. It did awesome service as a daily for three years, then gathered dust for three years. I would recommend it to anyone. It never let me down.

Yeah, three days ago, my seven year old Kirium Chrono Quartz (silver face, brushed bracelet) ended its run as my daily-wearer in favor of a new GMT Master II. I can't say enough about the old Tag. It keeps great time, feels solid, and I loved every moment of our time together (terrible double pun--sorry). My only gripe is the fact that the bracelet virtually maintains its shape, even when it's not on your wrist. That makes storing it a bit tougher.

True, but it makes wearing it very comfortable!

That sounds a bit like the IWC AT bracelet system, almost like a solid bracelet. I don't mind since it is on the winder when not on, but you are right. You can't just slip it in the pocket like a Rolex.

The Kirium as well as the V-shaped LINK bracelets are both very strong and dependable ones. Had a Link Chronometer once....did give me good service.

Not a huge fan of Tags, had a few in the past, must say they were 100% reliable,but out of the currant range,non smile back at me.

I really like Tag's myself. I've had on a Link chrono at my local AD and that thing had Sherman Tank written all over it. I've tried on numerous others and they felt like good quality too.

Thanks guys and yes the bracelets Tag makes are some of the best available Today, very soild, sturdy, and built to take anything the clasp is so strong its pretty much unbreakable. The Kirium series have always been my favorite Tags and I've owned many of them both the Chronometer Automatic and the Quartz. The two I now have are my keepers, I find the ETA Quartz Tag uses and modifys to be the most dependable quartz watch movement I've ever owned. I would have gotten another chronometer automatic but Tag doesn't make that model with the electric blue dial, which in my opinion is the best dial Tag makes. So for the price of one auto I was able to get two quartz. Both have the end of battery life indicator and will still run in this mode for about one month without losing time and before coming to a complete stop, which is very nice. Heres my current two (ok I lied I actually have two of the Electric blue and one black dial) don't tell the wife.

Heres the Limited edition secret on the Tag Kirium Electric Blue.

As I mentioined above I actually own three Tag Kiriums if you look close at the two dials you'll notice the Electric Blue here has the word Kirium printed on the dial and the Black dial has the word professional on it as most Kiriums do. The watches with the word Kirium printed on them were realesed in very limited numbers which is unknown to anyone except Tag. I've never worn this watch and removed it only to take pics, it sits resting in its box. I've also only seen one other Kirium like this like I said they are very rare. I normally wear the Electric Blue and Black dial with the professional wording on the dial.

The newer Chronometer versions with the newer styled numbered dials now all say Kirium on them, but just try to find a Quartz version with Kirium on it.

Sam · 5 December 2005, 06:47 AM

Jim...you really should seek help with that problem you have of buying 2 of everything.

JIM- · 5 December 2005, 06:58 AM

Hey I only have one of the black dials, of course I did sell the other one.

Wanted two wives but the current one won't go for it.

Remember twos always better then one.
