Title:
Case #0037 — TAG Heuer Link Calibre S Chronograph (Ref. CAT7011.BA0952) — Full Kit
Character
The TAG Heuer Link series has always balanced refined sport with everyday versatility — and the Calibre S Chronograph takes that DNA into technically innovative territory. The Calibre S electro-mechanical movement delivers a hybrid of analog elegance and quartz precision, with a chronograph display that uses the main hands for timing, allowing for 1/100th of a second accuracy.
The 42mm stainless steel case wears confidently without overpowering, while the signature S-link bracelet provides unmatched comfort. The silver sunburst dial and polished bezel give this piece a presence that transitions seamlessly from desk to dinner.
This example comes in good pre-owned condition and includes the full kit — box, warranty papers, manuals, and accessories — a complete set that’s increasingly hard to find intact.

Celebrity Provenance
While the Calibre S remains more of a connoisseur’s choice than a celebrity spotlight piece, the TAG Heuer Link has long been favored by professionals and athletes. Leonardo DiCaprio and Tiger Woods both wore Link models during their ambassador years, showcasing the collection’s mix of comfort, precision, and style.
Story
When TAG Heuer introduced the Calibre S in the mid-2000s, it marked a deliberate push toward redefining chronograph functionality. By blending the tactile feel of mechanical timekeeping with quartz-level precision, TAG delivered a watch that could track elapsed time using the main hands — removing the need for traditional subdial layouts.
Case #0037 stands as a complete, well-kept example of this now-discontinued model. For collectors who appreciate the Link’s heritage and want a chronograph that feels distinct from anything else in the TAG lineup, it’s a rare find at the $2,000 mark.
