The TAG Heuer Carrea is in many ways the classic TAG Heuer watch. It all started with the Heuer Carrea introduced in 1963 by Jack Heuer, and was discontinued by Heuer in the early 1980s. Initially ignored by TAG Heuer, the brand reintroduced the Carrera in 1996 as part of the re-edition series.

The legendary Carrera 12 Dato. It does not have the word Carrera on the dial because simply there was no room to put it on! It was in the catalogue as Carrera and this was the most complicated in the whole series. Very desirable, just back from a tho…
One of the very first Carreras produced, dated almost certainly to 1964. This example has the very distinctive 'Poly Back' which was quickly replaced with the more common notched steel back. These very early examples are seldom seen and this one rema…

We were delighted to be invited by Tag Heuer to the launch of the museum in motion exhibition in London on November the 12th and very excited and honoured to be asked to a private lunch with the wonderful Jack Heuer. Jonathan was lucky enough to be sat next to Jack and learned of his experiences with Jo Siffert and the circumstances which lead to him meeting and working with Enzo Ferrari and some of his design principles which have produced such legendary watches. 86 years old and still full of passion, an exceptional man . Old friends who were with us at the beginning , Arno Haslinger and Paul Maudsley added to the fun and nostalgia. A day we will never forget.
