So, for the 50th anniversary of the very first Porsche 911 Carrera, the iconic RS 2.7, we wanted to create a tribute watch that would express the character and power of this ground-breaking sports car within our own signature TAG Heuer Carrera chronograph,” Frédéric Arnault, CEO of TAG Heuer, said. “The name and spirit of the Carrera are incredibly meaningful and emblematic for both TAG Heuer and Porsche. The transparent sapphire back case allows you to take a look inside and see the complication in action. Another link to the car that inspires them is the custom winding rotor made in the form of Porsche’s three-spoke steering wheel. The Red Edition switches blue accents for rose-gold ones on indices and hands.īoth models are powered by TAG Heuer’s Calibre Heuer 02 chronograph movement and provide 80 hours of power reserve. The steel version sports a white opaline dial with rhodium-plated indices and hands, a sub-seconds counter, a date wheel at 6 o’clock, as well as blue-colored dual sub-registers and outer minute/seconds track.
The watches cleverly adopt Porsche 911’s iconography, typography, and colors. This piece will wrap around the wearer’s wrist with an elegant red alligator leather strap. There is also a Red Edition, limited to only 250 units, boasting a precious 18k Rose Gold case.
An elegant steel bracelet with ergonomic H-shaped links is also available if you’re going for a more formal look. The Swiss luxury watchmaker created a Blue Edition of the watch, which is limited to 500 pieces, and gave it a finely polished stainless steel case with a sporty fabric strap that features the Porsche logo and Carrera markings. For instance, the color scheme and the case of the timepieces honor the great classic car, as well as the shared values of the two brands. The two watches incorporate memorable design features that draw inspiration from the Porsche vehicle. The legendary Porsche 911 Carrera RS 2.7 was introduced five decades ago, and the new TAG Heuer Carrera x Porsche RS 2.7 Limited Edition Chronograph Collection was created specifically to pay homage to the iconic car.
