The new TAG Heuer Carrera Chronograph Tourbillon Polychrome watch boasts a fascinating design that seamlessly blends innovation and creativity.
Based on the TAG Heuer Carrera Chronograph Tourbillon Nanograph, the 45-mm watch uses its signature case, bezel and strap design. The all-black case is made of ultra-lightweight and resistant fine brushed black PVD grade 5 titanium. It comes with a fixed carbon tachymeter bezel.
The Carrera Chronograph Tourbillon Polychrome watch features a domed, beveled sapphire crystal with anti-reflective treatment, a black PVD grade 5 titanium crown and push buttons, as well as a black PVD grade 5 titanium screwed sapphire case back with special engraving marking the limited release and XXX/150 number of the piece.
The strap is matte black alligator leather with a rubber lining, finished with a sandblasted grade 2 titanium folding clasp with double safety buttons and the TAG Heuer shield.
The TAG Heuer Carrera Chronograph Tourbillon Polychrome features a rainbow-colored skeletonized dial that perfectly harmonizes with the deep black exterior.
Both elegant and balanced, the tricompax pattern dial highlights a black flange with 60 second/minute scale, rhodium-plated blue chronograph sub-counters at 3 and 9 o’clock with black-gold-plated polished hands, and a multi-colored tourbillon at 6 o’clock. The applied indexes and hands are rhodium-plated, with Super-LumiNova® on the hour and minute hands.
To achieve the smooth and sophisticated vibrant color gradient covering the dial, TAG Heuer worked closely with an expert partner specialized in vacuum deposition PVD treatments, and the only supplier in the world to offer this breakthrough finish, Positive Coating.
Metallic oxides are deposited in infinitely thin transparent layers and their controlled and minute variations of thickness (a few nanometers) create the final gradual color spectrum.
This watch houses an exceptional movement: the Calibre Heuer 02T COSC chronograph tourbillon. Developed entirely in-house to meet the highest standards of precision and performance, this horological engine offers a power reserve of 65 hours.
The TAG Heuer Carrera Chronograph Tourbillon Polychrome is limited to only 150 pieces.
