Merging Classic Cool With Cutting-Edge Innovation

WHEN YOU STRAP ON TAG Heuer’s racing-driven Carrera Chronograph, you’re not just wearing a watch; you’re donning a piece of storied history, refined for the modern man. Inspired by the high-speed thrills of the Carrera Panamericana race, Jack Heuer designed the original Carrera in 1963 to be the quintessential sports chronograph — robust, legible, and sleek enough to wear on and off the racetrack.

This timepiece was groundbreaking, designed to offer drivers clarity at a glance during high-speed races. Its clean, easy-to read dial and durable construction set new standards in the world of sports watches, and, over the years, it has become a symbol of motorsport heritage combined with Swiss precision. It has been seen on the wrists of the most renowned racecar drivers, and even A-list Hollywood celebrities.
