TAG Heuer Grand Carrera

TAG Heuer Grand Carrera is a premium Avant-Garde new series inspired by the motor racing heritage and featuring unprecedented sophistication, performance and precision.

In 1964, a visionary young Swiss watchmaker, Jack Heuer, great-grandson of Edouard Heuer who founded the company bearing his name in 1860, launched the first Heuer Carrera in tribute to the “Carrera Panamericana Mexico Road Race”, thereby setting the seal on the TAG Heuer brand’s legendary association with the world of racing circuits Some 43 years later, Heuer again assaulted the luxury sports watch segment with the debut of its Grand Carrera series. The sharp-looking collection includes several new models that honour the original 1964 Carrera design while taking it to new heights with a new breakthrough called the TAG Heuer Calibre RS movement that marks a new way to display time. The indicators of this exclusive, GT engine-inspired rotating system enable wearers to read small seconds, a second time zone or chronograph time effortlessly, providing them with at-a-glance access to precision timing.

All models host a "Côtes de Genève" screw and polished bevelled edges complimented by curved, faceted horns on both case sides, a curved, sapphire crystal with double anti-reflective treatment and a double sapphire crystal caseback. The dials feature a hand-applied TAG Heuer logo and curved faceted markers. Oversized screw-in crowns and push-button clasps complete the sophisticated look of the pieces, which are also water resistant to 100 meters.

The series is certified with the Côntrole Officiel Suisse des Chronomètres (COSC) automatic movement and is only available through a select few exclusive agents.
