To celebrate the end of summer 2018, TAG Heuer is unveiling one of the most modern incarnations of its Aquaracer dive watch. Durable and solid, but above all, light, the Carbon Aquaracer is available in three models, each standing out thanks to hints of blue, yellow or rose gold. The 41mm black PVD-covered titanium case has a unidirectional rotating bezel in carbon and matt black PVD steel, a matt black steel crown at 3 o’clock, and a screw-on case back in grade 5 titanium, covered with black PVD.
The dial boasts an imitation carbon effect with hints of rose gold, yellow or blue. The faceted indexes and hour and minute hands are polished and lacquered in rose gold or plated with black gold and coated with grey SuperLuminova®. The faceted central hand, polished and lacquered in rose gold, yellow or blue, also bears a SuperLuminova® coating.
Thanks to the random injection of carbon fibres into a resin pressed at high temperatures, each piece is unique, boasting an exclusive black and grey marbled motif that evokes the depths of the oceans. Waterproof to 300m, the Aquaracer Carbon is the perfect watch for setting off in search of adventure while maintaining the stylish, sporty look that’s inseparable from TAG Heuer.
The Carbon Aquaracer houses the automatic Calibre 5 movement. Beating at 28'800 vph and offering a 38-hour power reserve, it powers the hours, minutes, seconds and the date which is displayed in a window with magnifier at 3 o'clock.
The watch is enhanced by a beautiful black nylon strap whose topstitching echoes the colour of the dial. The folding buckle in Grade 2 titanium covered with black PVD has a double safety pushbutton and a diving extension.
Price: Carbon Aquaracer pink gold 3,960 CHF / yellow 3,900 CHF / blue 3,900 CHF
Also available from the 3rd of September is the Monaco Bamford, the first collaboration in the serial production of a watch for Bamford Watch Department. The watch was unveiled at Baselworld 2018. It’s a brand new interpretation of the iconic Monaco, sporting a solid 39mm carbon case and an elegant full black dial that enhance the aqua blue chronograph counters. Water resistant to 100 meters, the Monaco Bamford houses the Automatic Calibre 11 and is completed with a black alligator leather strap with rubber interior.
