TAG Heuer Carrera Heuer-02 T contains an entirely new movement, based on the company’s CH-80 integrated-chronograph caliber and developed at its workshops in Chevenez in the Swiss Jura. The movement features automatic winding, a frequency of 4 hz (28,800 vph), an integrated, column-wheel-controlled chronograph function, and a power reserve of more than 65 hours stored in a single mainspring barrel. The best TAG Heuer Carrera replica watches at captainthewatch.is.
The flying tourbillon, which is hand-crafted by four watchmakers, is exceptionally lightweight, with central sections made of titanium and a top section made of carbon — much like the tourbillon created for TAG Heuer’s Monaco V4, the inspiration for this modern iteration. Sleek black finishing is applied to many of the components, including the skeletonized bridges, column wheel, chronograph bridges, and openworked rotor. All fitting, assembly, and adjustment work is performed by hand at the TAG Heuer manufacture, where the main parts are also produced. The balance spring is source from the Swiss firm Atokalpa, a partner of TAG Heuer. And each finished watch undergoes no less than 21 days of testing to ensure it meets the strict chronometer accuracy standards of the Swiss testing agency COSC.
The case measures 45 mm in diameter and consists of 12 separate components — lugs, case middle, bezel, caseback, crown and its moulding, chrono pushers, gaskets between the case middle and bezel, and crystals, the latter of which are made of sapphire.
The dial side of the movement is also skeletonized, in keeping with the look of last year’s Carrera 01 watch, which TAG Heuer CEO Jean-Claude Biver has announced will be the “backbone” of the Carrera collection going forward. The bicompax dial has subdials at 3 o’clock and 9 o’clock for chronograph hours and minutes, respectively. Polished and satin finishes adorn the hands and baton-shaped indices; the hands are treated Super-LumiNova. The one-minute flying tourbillon cage occupies the 6 o’clock position.
