The History:
The Heuer brand was created in 1860 and specialized in stopwatches and chronographs. Their focus was on instruments used in sports, such as dashboard timers. However, the focus shifted for Heuer brands in the
late 1950s and early 1960s, as the popularity of chronograph wristwatches was gaining momentum. In 1962, when Jack Heuer, a race car driver and motorsport enthusiast, became head of the company, he
spearheaded the creation of the Carrera watch.
The Watch:
The Tag Heuer Carrera Chronograph X Porsche Racing features a 44mm stainless steel DLC-coated case with a fixed ceramic bezel, a sapphire crystal, and an exhibition case back. The black textured dial features vertical brushing, hour and minute markers designed to mimic a Porsche instrument cluster gauge, orange accents throughout, and a date window at the 6 o’clock position. Powered by an in-house Calibre Heuer 02 automatic movement, visible through the case back and with a
uniquely designed rotor that is an homage to the iconic Porsche steering wheel, the Carrera Chronograph has an 80-hour power reserve and a water resistance rating of 100 meters.
