Manchester United is off to a strong start this year with its official timekeeper, TAG Heuer. The watch manufacture just unveiled the first watches in the colours of the famous football club. We are focusing today on the second timpiece, the Carrera Calibre Heuer-01 Chronographe Manufacture Manchester United Special Edition. With a large yet streamlined diameter of 45 mm, this sporty piece has a distinctly contemporary design. Its black skeleton dial and sapphire case-back invite you to admire the stunning mechanism of the Heuer-01 Manufacture Chronograph.
Naturally, the striking red of Manchester United is given pride of place: it features in the club logo at 9 o’clock, the TAG Heuer shield at 12 o’clock on the bezel, the hour, minute and chronograph central second hands, and the red alligator leather strap. This football-inspired piece, made entirely from black PVD-coated steel, features the date at half past three and boasts a black ceramic bezel with an engraved tachymeter scale. It is available with a red strap with black top-stitching or black strap with red top-stitching. The sapphire case-back highlights the Manchester United red devil decal logo. This clever contrast of red and black makes this watch a perfect tribute to that most illustrious of clubs, Manchester United.
