Won't always be on the dot. Depends on the model. If yours isn't changing over time, then I think 11:53pm is acceptable but to be honest it depends on what you are paying.. My Pelagos changes on the dot, my Damasko DS30 changes around 12.03 am..

For $500 or so, I think as long as it's not 11.30pm or before, or 12.30am or after, it's alright.

if it bothers you , I'm sure something could be done about it, can try to ask Mr Goh.

 

[roz_sid]

no it doesnt bother me, i know very little abt watches, i tot it was a defect. lolx. =)

This is an old Tag Heuer Automatic Chronograph, I suspect no longer in production.

A modern example would cost $6,300 retail.

Of course, when this was bought years ago, Tag Heuer watches were a lot cheaper than they are now.

thanks for the reply
was involved in moving out ops for a company and they offered to sell me at $200

After more intensive googling,
it looks like a CV2011

$200 is a great price if it's authentic. might cost you a few hundred more to service it, but a Swiss automatic chronograph below a thousand is an amazing deal.
