The Carrera was one of Jack Heuer’s most passionate projects, and his design ethos for this watch can be summed up in one word: legibility.
Jack wanted a watch that was stylish and functional - a watch that gives you everything you need and nothing you don’t.
While first generation Carreras were manually-wound, this modern iteration features TAG's Calibre 6 automatic-winding movement, a sapphire display caseback, a black guilloche dial with applied Arabic indices, and a subsidiary seconds counter at the 6:00 position with date. Although slightly larger than its forefathers, this piece retains the traditional Carrera case shape as a modernized interpretation of the classic.
This particular example remains in excellent condition, and is sized suitably for nearly any wrist.
If you are unsure about going down the vintage route but still desire a classically styled watch with some added modern accouterments, this TAG Carrera should be in your sights.
