The legendary Rodriguez brothers, Ricardo and Pedro were driving for Ferrari at this event and as Jack was already affectionate towards Ferraries, this further inspired him to come up with a watch exclusively for the purpose of racing.Īs soon as the Panamericana race came up, Jack was, in a flash, spellbound by the intrepid nature of this competition and thus he came up with the name for his upcoming watch as ‘Carrera'. At that time, Tag Heuer's watches were used for keeping the track of time during the races. The journey of this Tag Heuer watch began in March 1962 when Jack Heuer was present at the 12 hours race at Sebring in Floride. The Tag Carrera has acquired its name from a legendary road race – the Mexican Carrera Panamericana and is one of the most celebrated timepieces by Tag Heuer. This collection can be tagged as a classic one in the midst of its mechanical sports watches. The iconic Tag Heuer Carrera chronograph is amongst its most famous chronographs that was introduced in 1963.
Since then, Heuer was focused on creating various movements and bringing technological advancement in the field of watchmaking. The success story of this brand began in 1889 when it introduced its first chronograph at the world exposition in Paris.
It all began in 1887 when Edouard Heuer created an oscillating pinion which set a benchmark in the creation of Heuer stopwatches and this mechanism bought a change in the operations of chronograph movements forever.
When it comes to accuracy, the Tag Heuer has specialized in manufacturing precise chronographs.
