Overall there is much to like about the Calibre 5 movement from Tag Heuer. It is a movement that allows Swiss watches to be affordable, it is very accurate for its price point, and it can easily be serviced by almost all watchmakers.

The movement – also known as the calibre – is the engine to your timepiece, powering both the hands on the dial and all complications. Manual mechanical movements must be wound by hand and automatic mechanical movements are powered by the movement of your wrist.

When TAG Heuer revamped the watch in 1999, the name “S/el” was changed to “Link”, with the new name reflecting the watch's defining characteristic -- the distinctive “double S” shaped links in the bracelet.

Are Tag Heuer watches automatic? Many of their watches are automatic also known as self-winding watches. However, not all of their watches are automatic.
