"The E5 ships in 45mm or 40mm cases crafted from steel or titanium. This material selection matters beyond premium feel. Titanium's 4.5g/cm³ density delivers durability without wrist fatigue during extended wear, while steel's scratch resistance maintains appearance over years of daily use. Compare this to the Apple Watch Series 11's aluminum construction or the Samsung Galaxy Watch8's lighter approach. TAG Heuer treats the smartwatch as a watch that happens to be smart, not a gadget wrapped in watch styling."
"TAG Heuer OS is completely proprietary software development, powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon Wear 5100+ chipset. The 60-person dedicated development team built a system that prioritizes watch interaction patterns over smartphone notification overload. The redesigned operating system delivers quicker and cleaner navigation by rejecting Google Wear OS's app-heavy architecture entirely. This mirrors what I observed testing the Huawei Watch Fit 4. Proprietary systems can optimize battery life and responsiveness when freed from universal platform constraints."
The watch ships in 45mm and 40mm cases crafted from steel or titanium. Titanium's 4.5g/cm³ density delivers durability without causing wrist fatigue, while steel offers superior scratch resistance for long-term appearance retention. The design treats the smartwatch as a traditional watch that is also smart, contrasting with aluminum-based consumer-electronics approaches. TAG Heuer OS is proprietary and runs on Qualcomm's Snapdragon Wear 5100+ chipset, developed by a 60-person team to prioritize watch interaction patterns and cleaner navigation over app-heavy architectures. Battery life reaches up to three days, with fast charging providing a full day in 30 minutes and a full charge in 90 minutes. The watch earned Made-for-iPhone certification.
