TAG Heuer made a splash at W&W 2024 with not one, but two stunning additions to the iconic Carrera collection. Here’s a breakdown of each timepiece:

TAG Heuer Carrera Chronograph Skipper (CBS2241.FN8023)

This 39mm Carrera Chronograph Skipper celebrates TAG Heuer’s sailing heritage in a fine-brushed and polished luxurious 18K 5N solid rose gold. The circular-brushed blue dial boasts green, orange, and “intrepid” teal accents, reminiscent of the open sea. A regatta countdown indicator adds further aquatic functionality and the TH20-06 in-house chronograph is perfect for timing races, offering 80-hour power reserve.

A high-end blue fabric strap with 18K 5N solid rose gold pin buckle complements the rose gold case, embodying the adventurous spirit of sailing.

TAG Heuer Carrera Chronograph (CBS2216.BA0041)

This Carrera pays homage to the classic “Panda” look with a silver sunray dial and black “azuré” subdials. The bezel-free case and domed sapphire crystal provide exceptional readability, echoing Jack Heuer’s design philosophy. Having the same case dimensions, water resistance and movement as the Skipper model, this is the first-ever 39mm Carrera glassbox model with a three-row steel bracelet offering a chic and durable option. It comes paired with a steel bracelet with steel folding clasp and push buttons.
