Hands-On With The TAG Heuer Carrera CH80

During the introduction of the TAG Heuer replica Carrera CH80, both dial configurations were shown to us. The high-contrast color combination of black and white on the dial with the sporty looking red accents makes the new TAG Heuer replica Carrera CH80 a very attractive TAG Heuer replica  watch in our opinion. The perforated racing strap, that comes close to the design of the original leather Carrera straps, is made with a red lining, matching the red details on the dial.

Where the base design was kept as close to the original Carrera as possible, the case diameter has ‘matured’ to a more time-correct 41 mm. Although I personally, and as an owner of a late 1990s re-edition of the 35 mm TAG Heuer replica Carrera CS3110, would have opted for a bit more modest increase of the case diameter. The added date is a new feature and, with its position at 4:30 o’clock, leaves the original layout untouched.

The new TAG Heuer Carrera CH80 features an in-house manufactured movement. Made in the Chevenez (in the Swiss Jura region) workshop and has an impressive 80-hour power reserve. These two facts were the key components for the naming of this movement – the CH80 – which measures just 6.5 millimetres in thickness and consists of no less than 233 parts in total.

Introducing The TAG Heuer Replica Carrera Mikrograph Avant Garde, In Black Titanium And Rose Gold

Published / by avant1replicawatches

The original Mikrograph was introduced in early 2011 and was the first wrist chronograph to measure accurately down to 1/100th of a second. The central hands spins cleanly around the dial once per second and is astounding to TAG fake watch. The Avant Garde is a limited edition update to the Mikrograph with a combination black titanium and rose gold case, giving the TAG fake watch an updated look and a lower price. We were able to go hands-on with one of only fifty pieces at the TAG Heuer replica  boutique in New York City and here are our thoughts.


The outer ring of the dial is black with white applied numerals and the inner section of the dial is a dark brushed grey, again playing with subtle differences in color and texture. The subdials are accented in rose gold and both the runnings seconds hand and the “100 Mikrograph” signature up top are also rose gold, carrying through the color from the lugs and pushers.


Just looking at the Avant Garde, you’ll notice it has a much sportier feel than the original Mikrograph. The main section of the case is black titanium, accented by architectural rose gold lugs and pushers. This makes the hefty 43mm case much lighter than it looks and the finishing all around is really nice. The brushed and polished surfaces offer just enough contrast while staying sleek and the finishing on the lugs is incredible. It’s definitely a big TAG fake watch but it wears well on the wrist and isn’t a piece you’d have to leave in your safe all the time.


The layout of the functions is very intuitive. The large white seconds hand tracks 1/100ths of a second, the register down at 6 o’clock (also containing a date window) tracks the seconds, and the register at 3 o’clock tracks up to 30 minutes. The retrograde indicator at 12 o’clock is for the chronograph function’s 90 minute power reserve. You’ll notice that the indicator is marked up to 100, not 90, so this is a percentage, not the number of minutes left.


The original Mikrograph was a limited edition of 150 pieces and the Avant Garde is limited to only 50 pieces, available exclusively through TAG Heuer replica boutiques. Because of the titanium construction, the price is $39,000, substantially less than the $50,000 price TAG Heuer replica placed on the all gold original.

TAG Heuer Replica Presents Five New Models At Goodwood Festival Of Speed

Published / by avant1replicawatches

The 2015 Goodwood Festival of Speed drew enormous crowds to the ever-popular grounds of one of the UK’s most famous estates. One thing you notice when you visit the Goodwood Festival, which ran from June 25th to June 28th, is that everything moves quickly. The air is bursting with the rip-roaring sound of revving engines, the excited chatter of legions of fans, and the overhead sonic booms of jets zipping by. It’s an assault on the senses and one to be savoured.

When the daily drudgery gets you down, the TAG Heuer replica sponsored event is one of life’s great escapes. If you managed to get a ticket, your eyes would have been treated to some of the finest examples of automotive excellence the world has to offer, and, as if that weren’t enough, five new watches from TAG Heuer replica.
The TAG Heuer replica Carrera Calibre 16 Chronograph Senna Edition comes in two variations. You can choose a stainless steel case with an anthracite dial and a stainless steel bracelet with the same style of links (referred to as the “legend” style but, arguably, the basic design is much more widely known as the Link bracelet) worn by Senna himself; though, the links have been rounded for comfort and slightly refined. The other version is in DLC titanium on a rubber, tire-tread-inspired strap.

In my opinion, the DLC version on the rubber strap is far and away the pick of the bunch. The rubber is flexible out of the box and guarantees a snug and reassuring fit. At 44mm, the TAG Heuer Carrera Calibre 16 Chronograph Senna Edition is big, but not oversized by modern standards. The rubber strap and titanium case significantly reduce the weight and increase the comfort when compared to the steel variant. If you’re a die-hard steel fan, you will surely disagree, but for the money, I think the DLC version presents a better example of its type. The legend bracelet is fine, but does not grab your attention that much due to its one dimensional finish.

Let’s start with the two TAG Heuer replica Carrera Calibre 16 Chronograph Senna Editions. I found both TAG Heuer replica Senna Carreras to be excellent case studies in saturation branding – that is very difficult to get right, but also something TAG Heuer replica has extensive experience with. The stylised “S” in racing red features on the dial, the bezel, and the case back. It is hard to begrudge TAG Heuer replica their obvious enthusiasm for Senna and his posthumous ambassadorship (he even appeared as a hologram during the official launch in Barcelona), but the overt markings might be a bit much for those who want to wear this watch as a daily beater and not keep it in a box for posterity.

The TAG Heuer replica brand is evolving. In a strange way, it is becoming a microcosmic example of the watch industry on the whole. Its high-end has given us some amazing pieces over recent years with evermore exciting and ambitious calibres featuring unusual complications and a technical association with speed – although that division has seen severe budget cuts as a result of TAG Heuer replica‘s efforts (which we covered extensively here) to reposition itself with new pricing strategies as a brand with much better value proposition, bringing it back to its roots. As a result, at the entry-level, the watches are becoming more affordable and the use of quartz, increasingly commonplace.

The TAG Heuer replica Formula 1 McLaren Special Edition is one of three Formula 1 inspired quartz watches showcased at Goodwood, along with two more Senna memorial models. The McLaren is my favourite of the three, especially on the NATO strap (It is also available on the “legend” bracelet). The black and “rocket red” NATO is boldly decorated with a racing stripe. It dresses down this watch, which looks a bit passé on the bracelet. Being a quartz, it is highly functional and superbly accurate. I always think that if you want to spend over fifteen hundred bucks on a quartz, you might as well go for a chronograph. That way you can easily justify your choice on purely practical grounds. It’s very possible to get a great automatic three-hander for the same price as this TAG Heuer replica, but a mechanical chronograph at that price? They exist but they are very rare – and more often than not come with an inferior and not very dependable movement. And rarer still is it to find one from a brand with the same level of visibility as TAG Heuer replica.
