Back to the clock. The Watches has a round 41 mm diameter case and comes with a choice of a black or white dial. Both dials can be ADH with a bracelet or a black leather strap. The clock is your basic two-button three chronograph sub-dial Which has two counters (at the 12 and 6 o’clocks) to measure intervals of time of up to 12 hours. Continous seconds is displayed in a third sub-dial. The date you move to the 6 o’clock position from the 3 o’clock position in the TAG Heuer Carrera Automatic Chronograph. The bezel of the Watches has a Tachymetre scale used for measuring Which is the speed of a moving object moving through GIVEN distance. All in all, your basic chronograph. Coming in the same size as the older Carrera’s, looking too much like the older model and it’s in-house movement being less than ground breaking … well, lets just hope it does not cost much more than the older clock.
