On this occasion, two new TAG Heuer Carrera Calibre 16 chronograph have been unveiled. The 41mm case diameter houses a black or a blue dial, equipped with a perforated black leather strap with red stitching or a steel bracelet respectively. With touches of red, the colours, contrasts and position of the counters are all clear references to motor sport.

These two sporty models bear a vintage design produced by the three white counters, which stand out starkly against a dial featuring a white flange with a 60-second scale. The seconds counter is at 9 o'clock, the minute counter at 12 o'clock and the hour counter at 6 o'clock. Crucial component on an automotive chronograph, the bezel with tachometer scale is made from ceramic.
