2020 marks the 160th anniversary of the original TAG Heuer brand. To commemorate this momentous year, TAG Heuer has released a large number of Carrera-relatedwatches. This is fitting, as Carrera is one of the most iconic lines in the catalog, even if it has proven to be a chameleon over the years. For some loyal fans, the replica TAG Heuer Carrera is the Platonic ideal of what a 1960s sports watch should be. Throughout the seventies, many unusual Carrera watches appeared. Now, these same watches are coming to market in 2020, but with modern watchmaking technology and contemporary style for a new generation of Carrera consumers.
The Origins Of The Carrera
In 1963, TAG Heuer-Leonidas and its young president, Jack Heuer, made a great decision with the introduction of the Carrera chronograph. 1963 saw the release of the first Carreras watches defined by a minimalist approach. After TAG Heuer developed more than 125 versions of the Carrera watches and announced their retirement in the mid-1980s, the first Carreras were released in 1963. Then, Carrera returned in 1996. From around 2004, the Carrera was considered a symbol of motorsport because of its large case with a fixed tachymeter bezel. The Grand Carreras, which made its debut in 2007, evoked the look of motorsport technology.
The idea behind the Carrera watches has always been to provide clean, clear dials. Like other traditional TAG Heuer chronographs, Carrera watches also have a true traditional racing spirit. That’s why the four new Carrera chronographs we see here today all have subtle but obvious features that make legibility exponentially better. These 4 replica TAG Heuer Carrera Chronographs take inspiration from the original 1963 Carrera watch and reinterpret the classic elegance of the watch in a sleek, modern way. These watches feature a sophisticated, modern design, but with the authenticity of the historic Tag Heuer Carrera collection.
4 Replica TAG Heuer Carrera Chronographs
This time, TAG Heuer has launched four Carrera chronographs. All four watches have 42mm wide stainless steel cases, but come in different dial colors and strap types. The two replica TAG Heuer Carrera watches with blue and black dials come with an H-shaped steel bracelet. The other two watches with gray and silver opaline dials come with a brown alligator leather strap. In addition, the H-beam bracelet was specially designed by Heuer for these new Carrera watches. The combination of brushed and polished links matches the style of the case. These luxury replica watches have a cleaner look with the fine-tuned bracelet.
The front of the case is polished, but the sides are brushed. There are no features that draw attention to the case, as the stainless steel bezel with the tachymeter scale has been replaced by a simple polished stainless steel bezel. This design pattern dates back to the silver Carrera watches released in 1963.
Dial
The four TAG Heuer Carrera Chronographs come in different colors, but their dial layouts are identical. The top of the dial houses the metal TAG Heuer shield and is printed with “Carrera”, while the bottom of the dial is printed with “HEUER 02” and “80 HOURS”. “. Released in 1963, the Carrera watch has three sub-dials within the dial, three simply practical dials that are easy to read at a glance. The four fake TAG Heuer Carrera watches released today take the same design.2 visible sub-dials are located at the 3 and 9 o’clock positions, they are minute and hour counters respectively. At 6 o’clock there is not only a date window but also a hidden seconds counter.
Calibre Heuer 02
TAG Heuer Carrera watches are always in line with the brand’s pioneering watchmaking expertise. These four new luxury replica watches house the redesigned Heuer 02 movement, visible through the transparent caseback. The Calibre Heuer 02 is composed of 168 components, including the column wheel and vertical clutch, and has an extra-long power reserve of 80 hours.
The TAG Heuer Carrera Chronographs are inspired by motorsports. These watches are sports watches, but they exude elegance. That’s why these 4 TAG Heuer replica watches are ideal for formal social dinners and stand out on any occasion. All in all, these four new watches are a tribute to Carrera and a demonstration of the brand’s expertise in combining design refinement with the ideals of watchmaking.
