Hands-On: TAG Heuer Carrera 160 Years Silver Limited Edition 39mm Men's Watch Replica

Although absent in the LVMH Watch Week in Dubai, TAG Heuer has recreated probably the most famous references of their flagship Carrera chronograph line lately: the 1960s Carrera 2447S. This latest version, the TAG Heuer Carrera 160 Years Special Edition replica, is definitely an impressively faithful entertainment from the Heuer original, finished to modern standards and operated by TAG Heuer’s in-house Heuer 02 automatic chronograph movement. The brand new TAG Heuer Carrera 160 Years Silver Special Edition 39mm men's watch replica (reference number CBK221B.FC6479) is really a welcome go back to the clean lines of history.

Silver Dial

The silver dial looks so clean and crisp, the sub-dials look good under closer inspection, and the hands are legible over the brushed sun-ray dial. Overall, TAG Heuer knew where to leave well enough alone and understood that a simple watch relies on nailing the small things. There's a lot of history behind the concept of this TAG Heuer Carrera 39mm watch fake , but putting all that (necessary) talk aside I found it to be a  faithful and successful re-edition of a classic.

39mm Case

While slightly upsized from the 36mm original, this new interpretation of the 2447S remains compact at a 39mm overall case diameter. While some purists may disagree, the increase in size may even propel it above the original, allowing the TAG Heuer Carrera 160 Years watch replica some noticeable wrist presence without leaving a vintage-style size entirely. The lines at play are all classic ‘60s Heuer, too, from the unadorned slender bezel to the distinctive beveled lugs. Even the sapphire crystal is domed for a retro feel. The real point of divergence for the Carrera 160 Years Silver Limited Edition, however, is the caseback.

Caliber Heuer 02 Movement

This TAG Heuer men's watch replica has opted for a broad sapphire display window here, showcasing the uniquely decorated Heuer 02 automatic movement within. What also makes sense, is the use of their in-house caliber Heuer 02 movement. Sure, a hand-wound chronograph movement would come closer to the original Carrera 2447S, which was powered by the famous Valjoux 72 chronograph movement, but this caliber 02 is a worthy choice for this re-edition. The use of this Heuer caliber 02 movement does change the position of the running seconds compared to the Valjoux 72. Instead of 9 o'clock, the running seconds are now at 6 o'clock, swapped with the hour counter of the chronograph. The minute counter remains positioned at 3 o'clock.
Heuer’s caliber 02 is a column-wheel chronograph with an 80-hour power reserve. Furthermore, the watch is water-resistant to 100 meters (another modern advantage).

Review the TAG Heuer Monaco Limited Edition 1999-2009 Watch Replica

TAG Heuer Monaco Limited Edition 1999-2009 watch replica CAW211Y.FC6469, this piece follows on from the 1970s model released in May, the 1980s special that dropped in June, and the 1990s iteration (my favorite before this one) that hit the market in July. In September, the fifth and final model celebrating 2010-2019 was released. TAG Heuer Heritage Director Catherine Eberlé-Devaux oversaw the release of this piece in Tokyo.

The Dial

What I like about this handsome TAG Heuer Monaco watch fake version is that it doesn’t go too crazy. It does, in my opinion, exactly what a limited edition should do: offer the customer something completely on-brand, eternally wearable, and let the only unusual thing about it be the fact it is limited. The mostly black, white, and red dial is a classic sporty colorway that hands center stage to the watch case's iconic silhouette, that 39mm-wide waterproof square.



One of the nicest touches here is the use of orange hour dots, just kissing the tip of the red hour markers. Red and orange aren’t too often seen together, but the combination can occasionally bring a design to life, as it does here. Pairing these two colors on the dial is a nod to the "daring" decade that opened the current millennium.

The Case

The TAG Heuer Monaco Limited Edition 1999-2009 replica comes in a square-shaped and polished stainless steel case measuring 39mm x 39mm. The front side is equipped with a box-type sapphire crystal. The winding crown of the model is at 9 o'clock, a signature detail for the re-issue versions, and the angled chronograph pushers are on the right side of the case.

The Movement

Inside the case is the modern TAG Heuer Caliber 11 based on the automatic Sellita SW-300 that is modified with a Dubois-Depraz chronograph module, providing a 40-hour power reserve when fully wound. A solid case back featuring the "1999-2009 Special Edition" and "One of 169" engravings covers the movement. This version has a 30mm diameter, 59 jewels, an operating frequency of 28,800vph, and a 40-hour power reserve.

The Function

The TAG Heuer Monaco Limited Edition watch replica CAW211Y.FC6469 shows the time via the centrally mounted hour and minute hands, and a seconds sub-dial at 3 o’clock. The chronograph function can record time on demand using a central seconds hand and a 30-minute register at 9 o’clock. The date straddles the border between the black base of the dial and the white minute ring that boundaries the soft-square sub-dials.

Summary

The price for the TAG Heuer CAW211Y.FC6469 model is CHF 6,400.
