The heritage of TAG Heuer Carrera watches would not have been possible without Jack Heuer introducing the concept in 1963, which he based on a distinctive racing style – specifically, the legendary Carrera Panamericana automotive race held in Mexico. This is said to be one of the most dangerous races in the world and has inspired many thrill-seekers and risk-takers everywhere.
Similar to the Formula 1 collection, classic meets contemporary throughout the Tag Heuer Carrera range; timepieces are crafted from a range of materials, including leather, steel bracelets and titanium cases, giving the wearer a choice that allows them to express their personality as well. The collection is powered by speed, sweat and power, and our TAG Heuer watches for women are no exception; every piece is equipped with three hands for simplicity, elegance and sophistication.
The original TAG Heuer collection for men broke traditional watchmaking rules and marked the creation of the first chronograph designed specifically for professional drivers – it also became crucial to record time lapses accurately. The mould-breaking TAG Heuer 1887 calibre was, at the time, the most reliable on the market and is now a re-engineered innovation of a great watchmaking contribution: the oscillating pinion. This allows TAG Heuer to master the ultimate chronograph precision.
Today, TAG Heuer reinvents themselves with modern technologies and avant-garde design. Known for creating watching that never ‘crack under pressure’, each line and timepiece reflect the brand’s values of innovation, prestige and performance. TAG Heuer also believe in manufacturing watches inspired by sport, lifestyle and heritage. By breaking conventions and creating state-of-the-art pieces, the Swiss watchmaker has been able to partner with some of the best names in the world of sports, including Red Bull Racing Formula One team.
The self-winding automatic movement of TAG Heuer Carrera watches provides a power reserve of approximately 42 to 48 hours with a water depth resistance of 100m. Perhaps one of the most interesting features of the Carrera range is the tachymeter bezel. This measures distance by timing travel over distance while speed is held constant; essentially, it offers the ability to calculate the miles per hour you travel.
Inspired by motor racing, the Tag Heuer Carrera line is also one of the brand’s most iconic ones. The collection has built up a stellar reputation and is known for its reliability, innovative style and cutting-edge performance. TAG Heuer Carrera was created in 1963; the avant-garde design that characterises the range perfectly matches its durability and precision.
The collection allows the wearer to look the part with its sophisticated sporty look that manages to be timeless and contemporary at the same time.
The TAG Heuer Carrera collection represents an adventurous, pioneering spirit, which is reflected in both the gents’ and the ladies’ watches. In this line, the powerful performance of TAG Heuer’s mechanics is combined with a thoughtful and sporty design that gives each watch a wealth of personality while still ensuring their aesthetic embodies the elements found on a racetrack.
You don’t have to be a fan of motorsports to enjoy such a collection. The Carrera is appreciated by watch enthusiasts all over the world, so it’s not surprising that TAG Heuer has ensured its revival and evolution over time. Of course, the collection is incredibly popular among racetrack drivers as well; Jenson Button, Formula 1 driver, is the brand ambassador for the TAG Heuer Grand Carrera watch, a gorgeous timepiece that celebrates the best of motorsports and personifies the brand’s passion for speed and accuracy.
Sporty and elegant at the same time, the TAG Heuer Carrera watch collection stands apart from other lines due to their fantastic range of sizes, materials and special features. The different complications also make the range one to look out for, whether you’re looking for a watch with a day-date feature, GMT functionality or a chronograph complication, for instance.
With the TAG Heuer Carrera, the Swiss luxury watchmaker offers a unique style that has been proven popular among sophisticated and distinguished clientele. In the motorsports world, TAG Heuer brand ambassadors include famous names Alexander Rossi and Jean-Éric Vergne. What’s more, the brand’s prestige, values and use of high-tech materials have garnered them many more admirers around the world, such as actor Chris Hemsworth and actress and model Cara Delevingne.
Carrera has become synonymous with TAG Heuer. Combining unparalleled watchmaking pedigree with motor racing tradition, every watch in this sporty collection pays homage to forward-thinking design and state-of-the-art technology.

Taking inspiration from the world of motor racing, the TAG Heuer Carrera watch is equipped with innovative functions, stylish design options, and precise timekeeping functions. Here are a few of the key features that make them a model worth investing in:
TAG Heuer have developed an extensive range of options within their Carrera collection, from minimalistic everyday watches to unique pieces that incorporate striking colours.
TAG Heuer Carrera Chronograph: These chronograph watches come in a diverse range of styles, from a classic black and stainless steel combination to this black leather and deep green alternative. This is the signature style of the Carrera line, typically featuring three sub-dials for measuring elapsed time in hours, minutes, and seconds. These watches tend to be made on the larger side, from around 39mm and above, so they’re suitable for those who enjoy the intricacies of watchmaking and a bold statement on the wrist.
TAG Heuer Carrera Day/Day-Date: For those who prefer a simpler aesthetic, the Carrera Date or Day-Date models are elegant, everyday watches. They feature a date window, often at 6 o’clock or 3 o’clock, and some include a day and date display. Their clean, minimalist dials, such as that seen on this deep blue variation, make them perfect for business, casual, or formal settings.
TAG Heuer often release limited edition variations of this collection, so be sure to keep updated with our website to know when new releases are on the horizon.
To keep your TAG Heuer Carrera performing at its best, we provide full servicing and repair options with every purchase. For optimal functionality and longevity, we recommend having your watch professionally serviced every four to five years.
To get started, simply contact our team for a tailored service estimate. Once you have your quote, you can choose to drop your watch off at our store or send it to us securely by post.
Depending on the level of service needed, your Carrera will either be returned to the original TAG Heuer workshop or carefully handled by our in-house experts. After servicing is complete, your timepiece will be promptly and securely returned to you, ready to perform at its best.
TAG Heuer Carrera watches are generally covered by a 2-year International Manufacturer’s Warranty, but please be sure to check the individual watch you’re interested in for specific details.
