When the watch industry is focusing on the new items from SIHH 2019, TAG Heuer just released an innovative new tourbillon variant of their iconic Carrera, which the brand called a “world premiere in fake watch industry” – thanks to a hairspring made from a new carbon composite material. Designed, patented, and manufactured wholly by TAG Heuer, the revolutionary new hairspring is composed of elemental carbon and sits inside a tourbillon complication at the center of the new Carrera Calibre Heuer 02T Tourbillon Nanograph, which will be priced at 25,500 USD.
There have been countless variations of the Carrera since its first debut in 1963; however, for those who wish to buy a Tag Heuer watch, this surely has to be one of the most advanced and decadent renditions of the Carrera yet.
The “Nanograph” part of the watch is named from the “nanoscopic” hexagonal pattern of the hairspring’s carbon-composite material, which makes the design of the piece as a whole. The skeleton dial – an anaarticularly notable feature when paired with high-tech materials and a tourbillon complication – shows sandblasted and fine-brushed hexagons on both the movement plates and the oscillation weight, the latter of which has been treated with a black PVD finish.
The 45mm case is made from black-finished titanium, while the tachymeter bezel is made from black carbon. Small neon green accents can be seen throughout the whole watch (including on its movement), while the aluminum alloy balance wheel is set with white gold weights and finished with white Super-LumiNova, o that users can see it glowing in the dark.
“This revolutionary upgrade of the replica TAG Heuer Carrera with its advanced self-researched technology accentuates our legacy in achieving watchmaking excellence and proves that we remain true to our values of performance, disruption, and advance,” comments Stéphane Bianchi, CEO of the LVMH Watchmaking Division and CEO of TAG Heuer.
“With this new skeletonized tourbillon fake watch in the Carrera series, we look to underscore TAG Heuer’s capabilities both in design and development of compelling movements,” adds TAG Heuer replica Product Director Guy Bove. “Like its precedent models, the Carrera Calibre Heuer 02T Tourbillon Nanograph is a force of disruption in the replica watch industry, thanks to its visually brilliant blend of modern, high-tech aesthetics and accurate, gorgeous proportions: hallmarks of the Carrera collection for over 50 years.”
