Clean & Stylish. Tag Heuer Carrera Review

Recommended Posts

matrixLe

After a short air trip my watch arrived yesterday. thank you precious time for the great service and extermy fast delivery.

 

this is my first review here so .. first some technical issues :P

 

* Model : Tag Heuer Carrera Chrono Tachymetre Black

* Movement : A.7750 Valjoux Automatic, 28800bph, Fully Functional Chronograph

* Dimensions : Width 41mm x 16mm Thick

* Dial : Black Dial with Black Subdials, and Stick Markers

* Bezel : Fixed Tachymetred Bezel

* Case Material : 316L Solid Stainless Steel

* Caseback : Sapphire Caseback Showcasing Movement

* Crystal : Sapphire Crystal

* Strap : Solid 316L Stainless Steel Strap With Deployant Clasp

 

my pros/cons

 

pro:

- the case is very close to the gen. high quality handling. feels solid in your hands.

- movement is very cool. runs about +4sec/day

- hands moving smooth

 

con:

- the bracelet (steel) is crappy. very weak and not comftable to wear. i've changed it into a rubber strap. a gen steel bracelet is no option (costs about 399€)

- lume is almost unavailable

- start button is very hard to press. i've to oil it eventually.

 

 

 

sooooommmme pics!

Very classy looking watch. Too bad about the bracelet, though. I thought TAG rep bracelets were of good quality.

I would also bring the attention, that the movement looks different on the GEN, which of course is not that noticeable when you wear the watch. :rofl:

How did you change it into a rubber strap? Did you allready have one or did have to buy one

I like the rubber strap, fits the watch well
