The new ‘Watches of Switzerland Group TAG Heuer Carrera Exclusive’ strikes the perfect balance between advance watchmaking technology and unprecedented refinement at the cutting edge of horological innovation. The TAG Heuer Carrera Collection features iconic sports watches designed for professional drivers and sports-car enthusiasts, with performance at their heart.

Reminiscent of the iconic Carrera models of the 1970s with the black markers, chapter ring and sub dials, inspired by the likes of the 153 and the 2447SN, the off-white dial colour extends the sense of vintage nostalgia. Often nicknamed a ‘panda’, the contrast of the watch dial and sub dials is a design aesthetic that remains incredibly sought after. The ‘Watches of Switzerland Group TAG Heuer Carrera Exclusive’ is available in 42mm, with either a stainless-steel bracelet or a perforated black leather strap, with each style limited to 125 pieces.

True to the Carrera family tradition, this exclusive is more than just a pretty – watch – face. The stunning aesthetic is rivalled only by the superior performance of the impressive 02 movement which has an 80-hour power reserve and a water resistance of up to 100 metres. In true high-speed fashion these exclusives have a chronograph function further cementing their racing pedigree. With a stainless-steel case, sized at 42mm, these timepieces combine sport and style resulting in an elegant timepiece perfect for day or night.

 

This exclusive timepiece will be sold across the Watches of Switzerland Group’s UK retailer showrooms of Goldsmiths, Mappin & Webb and Watches of Switzerland as well as online and in the US. UK RRP £5,250 / £5,350.

"We have been in partnership with TAG Heuer for over 40 years; an enduring partnership which has seen us celebrate many key anniversaries together or significant launches like this new exclusive. We know fans of the brand will appreciate a timepiece that encompasses the driving ethos of TAG Heuer and the brand’s strong ties to motorsport and our dedicated, knowledgeable, showroom experts will take pride in presenting this exclusive limited edition to clients."
