Needeless to say, The Carrera Heuer-01 is the most attractive TAG Heuer collection. This is a modern flagship, made with contemporary materials, capable of housing any and all complications.

Already, TAG Heuer is showing the versatility of its new pillar. A few months after the release of its new chronograph, TAG has announced plans to release a tourbillon chronograph that borrows the case design of the Carrera Heuer-01. And the big news is its incredible price point. 
In fact, it is roughly ten times cheaper than the similarly made Bell & Ross BR-X1 Chronograph Tourbillon. Both feature a 45 mm case, made from a combination of grade-5 titanium, stainless steel, and rubber. Both present semi-skeletonized dials, highlighting the minute and hour counters at 3 and 9 o’clock, respectively. And both feature a flying tourbillon at 6 o’clock. Where they differ greatly is in their price.Exactly how TAG Heuer are able to make such an affordable tourbillon isn’t exactly clear yet, but neither the precious materials nor the hand-finishing usually reserved for such a revered complication are present. What is clear however, is the brand’s intention to release a tourbillon movement that is verifiably sound, and able to pass the COSC certification.

We also know the new manufacture Calibre Heuer 02-T movement, which beats at 28,000 vph, is based on the abandoned CH-80 Chronograph, and that some of the components were already being developed in-house in the Chevenez workshops. TAG Heuer says it was able to reduce the cost of production by “optimizing the manufacturing process.”
Two variations of the TAG Heuer Carrera Heuer-02T will be available; a non-limited model and a “Black Phantom” edition of 250 pieces. It wouldn’t be a Jean-Claude Biver watch if there weren’t an all-black limited edition. The watch comes on a black rubber strap with deployment buckle and safety push-buttons.
