TAG Heuer Black Carrera Preview
TAG Heuer choice come to pass introducing new Carrera models at Baselworld 2008. The TAG Heuer Carrera capacity 1 generation and the august Carrera Calibre 17 RS2.
The Calibre 1 has a mechanical fist wound movement, a 43 mm diameter case, a transparent favour and is limited to 6000 pieces worldwide. The Calibre 17 RS2 utilizes Grade 2 Titanium (Ti2) with a black titanium carbide treatment, which makes the already corrosion unyielding antagonistic metal all the more added resistant to damage. The RS2 has a matte black alligator lash with a “soft touch” coating. The dial is very nice looking with a coral colored seconds hand, a red stripe on the crown and red stitching on the inside of the strap. The RS2 has a COSC certified chronometer movement and black-gold hand applied hands. I will be taking a closer look at these watches in Basel next week. From the pictures I would have to say these might be the first-rate looking TAG watches I have constantly seen. The fact that TAG Heuer is utilizing black treaments on their watches is further proof that this is not just hype, on the contrary that black watches are here to stay.
