TAG Heuer’s Carrera Glassbox Chronograph in 18k 3N yellow gold marks the grand finale of its 60th –
anniversary celebration, paying homage to a rich history in motorsports and an unwavering
commitment to excellence.
This timepiece is a tribute to Jack Heuer, a true pioneer in the industry. Jack Heuer revolutionized
the luxury watch world by gifting gold timepieces to racing drivers. These TAG Heuer watches
evolved into more than mere rewards; they became trusted companions in the quest for victory,
proudly adorning the wrists of legends like Ronnie Peterson and Niki Lauda. This bold approach
redefined luxury watch marketing and cemented a strong connection with motorsports.
The TAG Heuer Carrera Glassbox Chronograph boasts the Calibre TH20-00 Automatic movement, a
precision engine ensuring the utmost accuracy and reliability, crucial in the realm of luxury watches.
The watch’s dial is a work of art, featuring an 18k 3N yellow gold-plated vertically brushed surface,
providing a sumptuous canvas for timekeeping.

brushed and polished exterior. This case design beautifully combines vintage charm with
contemporary sophistication, making it a versatile accessory suitable for pairing with an elegant suit
on a workday or casual jeans during a laid-back Sunday brunch.
One of the standout features is the Glassbox domed sapphire crystal, not only protecting the watch
but also providing a mesmerizing view of the intricate dial and movement. The standard crown,
made from 18k 3N solid yellow gold, is conveniently positioned at 3 o’clock, allowing easy time
adjustments. At 2 o’clock and 4 o’clock, you’ll find the finely brushed and polished 18k 3N solid
yellow gold round push buttons. These buttons not only enhance the watch’s aesthetics but also
enable the functionality of the chronograph.
The watch is equipped with a screw-down sapphire case back in 18k 3N yellow gold, enhancing its
durability and water resistance. With a water resistance rating of 100 meters, this timepiece is not
just a showpiece but also a versatile companion for various activities, whether it’s a stroll to work in
the rain or light water-based adventures while on vacation. And just to emphasize, nearly every
element of this watch is made from 18k 3N solid yellow gold.
To complete this masterpiece, the watch features a perforated black calfskin leather strap, adding a
sporty and racing-inspired touch while enhancing comfort during extended wear. Regarding
dimensions, it boasts a lug-to-lug measurement of 46 mm, ensuring a comfortable fit on the wrist.
With a thickness of 13.9 mm, it strikes the perfect balance between elegance and wearability
without feeling overly bulky. This TAG Heuer Carrera Glassbox Chronograph in 18k 3N yellow gold is
