Question
Hello,  I am interested in purchasing a genuine Tag Heuer watch from an on
line discount site. I love the Aquaracer petite I found on discount-
watches.com with the white stainless steel strap. I have done a fair amount of
research and have never seen a white metal strap from Tag. Is this watch the
genuine article? Have they ever produced a white stainless or ceramic strap?  
Thanks for your help!
Amanda

Answer
Dear Amanda,

Thank you for writing.

Buying discounted designer items can be risky. There is always a risk that this discounted designer item is a "knock-off".

It is hard to tell the authenticity of these items without seeing them up close, and even then it can be difficult. Some of these items are the same quality, possibly produced in the same place but one got stamped with a brand.

You truly must decide if it is the style you are willing to pay for or the name.

Best of luck to you!
