Innovation. Unique to the Grand CARRERA – the unconventional Rotating System. Years of research and development for an effortless time display.

The world’s first 1/100th sec mechanical stopwatch invented in 1916, the Mikrograph. TAG Heuer’s drive for precision continues today in the Grand CARRERA, a salute to GT race cars. The Grand Carrera Calibre 36 RS perfectly expresses this passion for measuring time, as does the next revolution in watchmaking - the Grand Carrera Pendulum.

Functions & features

Anti-scratch sapphire crystal with double anti-reflection treatment

All our watches are fitted with sapphire crystal. This is
cut from a polished slice of solid sapphire that has been
created by the fusion and crystallization of alumina.
Sapphire is so hard that only a diamond can scratch it.
Polished faceted hands and indexes are hand applied and coated with luminescent material for enhanced visibility
Safety push-button on the bracelet or strap for comfortable use, prevents accidental opening
C.O.S.C chronometer for ultimate precision certified by the Swiss Office of Chronometry

Each model that is officially certified as a chronometer
is given a booklet and a C.O.S.C. card by TAG Heuer. The
individual number printed on the card corresponds to
the number engraved on the movement certified by the Official Swiss Chronometer Control.
Each of these movements is a unique object that has been
produced with the greatest possible care and is an authentic
masterpiece of watchmaking.
The C.O.S.C. Chronometer Certificate: a sign of very high precision and
quality.
Automatic chronograph movement

TAG Heuer Automatic chronographs make it possible

and history of the company.
