TAG Heuer Grand Carrera Chronograph

Following on from my earlier post, here is another TAG Heuer model.

TAG Heuer Grand Carrera Chronograph

Unlike the TAG Heuer Grand Carrera Grande-Date GMT, this model does not feature a big date complication. That aside, I must say I prefer this model. It is rare that you will see a watch with a bracelet strap being featured on this blog, but the TAG Heuer Grand Carrera Chronograph warrants its place here. Very neat watch, and the dials come in either silver or black. Predictably, I prefer the black dial.

Some specs:

Automatic movement, Caliber 17RS. Water resistant to 100m. COSC-certified.

This is the TAG Heuer Grand Carrera Grand Date GMT. I’m not too fond of brown, so my preference would be for another colour dial.Good thing then, that there is also a choice of a black or silver dial. Nothing really remarkable about this watch. It is solid, and looks dependable - none of that unnecessary frippery that one now sees with depressing regularity on so-called ‘luxury watches’. But then this is TAG Heuer we are talking about. I haven’t yet seen any TAG Heuer watch that made me gasp in shock. Having said that, I haven’t also seen any that took my breath away. So there we have it: solid, but not much more.
