Hence, the Heuer Carrera chronographs were born.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-220175\" src=\"https:\/\/thatdope.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/1579164636_934_TAG-Heuer-Carrera-160-Years-Silver-Limited-Edition-celebrates-brands.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"660\" height=\"778\"  \/><\/p>\n<p>From pocket watches to dashboard instruments (from whence the Autavia line descends) to wristwatches, TAG Heuer has always kept clean design and legibility at the core of its aesthetic codes, the Heuer Carrera chronograph was no different, especially when it came to timing something as dangerous as a no holds barred road race, the Jack Heuer\u2019s Carrera Chronograph was designed so that racers could take a glance at the time without taking undue attention from the road and its driving conditions during races.\u00a0 As such, the re-edition TAG Heuer Carrera 160 Years Silver Limited Edition takes its <em>raison d\u2019etre <\/em> and aesthetic cues from the classic 2447s Carrera chronograph, a recognisable monochrome silver-dial model from 1964, with its 3-6-9 snailed subdials and silvery starburst dial.<\/p>\n<p>That said, the Heuer Carrera 160 Years Silver Limited Edition may look vintage but its modern heart is anything but. Instead of a traditional Valjoux 72 (incidentally the base calibre for vintage Rolex \u201cPaul Newman\u201d Daytonas), the contemporary interpretation of the TAG Heuer Carrera 160 Years Silver Limited Edition carries within its 39mm case, the avante garde Heuer 02 movement.<\/p>\n<div id=\"gallery-2\" class=\"gallery galleryid-220172 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-large\">\n<dl class=\"gallery-item\">\n<dt class=\"gallery-icon portrait\">\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.luxuo.com\/style\/watches\/tag-heuer-carrera-160-years-silver-limited-edition-celebrates-milestone-anniversary-for-the-brand.html\/attachment\/tag-heuer-carrera-160-years-silver-limited-edition-celebrating-a-milestone-anniversary-for-the-legendary-heuer-carrera-3\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"455\" height=\"775\" src=\"https:\/\/thatdope.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/1579164636_318_TAG-Heuer-Carrera-160-Years-Silver-Limited-Edition-celebrates-brands.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\"  \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n<\/dl>\n<dl class=\"gallery-item\">\n<dt class=\"gallery-icon portrait\">\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.luxuo.com\/style\/watches\/tag-heuer-carrera-160-years-silver-limited-edition-celebrates-milestone-anniversary-for-the-brand.html\/attachment\/tag-heuer-carrera-160-years-silver-limited-edition-celebrating-a-milestone-anniversary-for-the-legendary-heuer-carrera-4\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"455\" height=\"775\" src=\"https:\/\/thatdope.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/1579164637_609_TAG-Heuer-Carrera-160-Years-Silver-Limited-Edition-celebrates-brands.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\"  \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n<\/dl>\n<p>\t\t\t<br style=\"clear: both\"\/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<p>Yes, 3mm larger than its original predecessor, the new Heuer Carrera 160 Years Silver Limited Edition also packs power reserve of 80 hours \u2013 an increase of 30 hours compared to the Calibre Heuer 01, a vertical clutch for precision of start-and-stop functions as well as the running of the chronograph second hand, and the beloved column wheel, a symbol of fine watchmaking with noticeably smoother button actuation, all packed within a slimmer calibre.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-220176\" src=\"https:\/\/thatdope.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/1579164637_765_TAG-Heuer-Carrera-160-Years-Silver-Limited-Edition-celebrates-brands.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"660\" height=\"528\"  \/><\/p>\n<p>Another departure from its vintage forebear is the shape of the central hour and minute hands, now facetted and coated with beige SuperLuminova.\u00a0The TAG Heuer Carrera 160 Years Silver Edition is limited to 1860 watches<\/p>\n<h2><em>New Heuer Carrera 160 Years Silver Limited Edition Price and Specs<\/em><\/h2>\n<p><strong>Movement<\/strong> Automatic Calibre Heuer 02 Manufacture with 80 hours power reserve<br \/><strong>Case<\/strong> 39 mm stainless-steel case with 100 metres water resistance<br \/><strong>Strap<\/strong> Leather<br \/><strong>Price<\/strong> TBA<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.luxuo.com\/style\/watches\/tag-heuer-carrera-160-years-silver-limited-edition-celebrates-milestone-anniversary-for-the-brand.html\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Though TAG Heuer was officially a partner in LVMH\u2019s inaugural watch week 2020 in Dubai, the La Chau-de-Fonds watchmaker elected not to display any novelties at the fair but instead quietly released the TAG Heuer Carrera 160 Years Silver Limited Edition, celebrating a milestone birthday for the makers of the legendary Heuer Carrera.
