The TAG Heuer Carrera Chronograph gets an Extreme Sport makeover

TAG Heuer has been a big part of my watch journey from an early age. My dad wore a quartz Professional for more than 30 years, in all of its two-tone glory, representative of the late 1980s, and I'll never forget seeing the big advertisements for the skeletonised, Heuer 01-powered Carrera Chronograph. The latest TAG Heuer Carrera Chronograph Extreme Sport follows in the lineage of the latter, and signifies the brand's current intention across the Carrera collection. Based on the framework of the recent limited-edition Porsche collaboration, the new Carrera Extreme Sport is the latest variant of the popular skeletonised Carrera Sport, offering lightweight (and precious) materials at an attractive price point. ------------------------------- Brand - TAG Heuer Model - Carrera Chronograph Extreme Sport Reference - CBU2081.FT6274, CBU2082.FT6275, CBU2080.FT6272, CBU2050.FT6273 Case Dimensions - 44mm (D) x 15.1mm (T) x 49.7mm (LTL) Case Material - Grade 2 titanium and ceramic, DLC-coated grade 2 titanium and ceramic, 18k 5N rose gold and ceramic Water Resistance - 100 metres Crystal(s) - Sapphire crystal front and back Dial - Blue, red, black, black and gold; open Strap and bracelet - Integrated rubber strap, titanium folding clasp Movement - TH20-00, in-house, automatic, column wheel Power Reserve - 80 hours Functions - Hours, minutes, small seconds, date, chronograph Availability - September 2024 Price - US$8,200 (titanium), US$8,400 (DLC titanium), US$12,300 (rose gold) ------------------------------- Read more articles: https://timeandtidewatches.com Shop: https://shop.timeandtidewatches.com ------------------------------- MB01OTIXZLPJ5VH INSTAGRAM @timetidewatches TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/search?q=timea...
