TAG Heuer Link Chronograph Replica Watch

Dating back to 1987 the TAG Heuer Link replica watch is distinguished by its steel bracelet with S-shaped links. The first of the new collection of Link watches were launched in 2016, and now the Link Chronograph, which will be available next month, is the latest. The case Presented in a stainless steel case with a diameter of 41 mm the Link Chronograph comes with either a black or blue sunray dial. The dial features 3 snailed counters, luminescent applied indices, and baton-shaped hands with lume for the hours and minutes, and a white lacquered central chronograph seconds hand.

SIHH 2019: The Hublot Classic Fusion Chronograph Orlinski Ceramic

Sports stars are, by and large, a watch brand’s default celebrity category when searching for ambassadors. From tennis and football through athletics, golf and even triathletes, there is no sport without a sponsored wrist in it somewhere.

TAG Heuer Carrera Heuer 02 GMT Chronograph Replica Watch

The Carrera is celebrating its 55th anniversary this year. To celebrate, TAG Heuer isn’t looking at the past but instead remains true to its “avant-garde” identity.

After the presentation a few weeks ago of the new Carrera Heuer 02 Chronograph with an updated movement, Baselworld 2018 brings us the traveller’s version, the TAG Heuer Carrera Heuer 02 GMT Chronograph. The modern version of the Carrera, launched at Baselworld 2015, quickly became a best-seller for TAG Heuer. With its deeply reinterpreted design, its bold design, its skeletonized movement and dozens of possible versions – thanks to a modular architecture where parts can be switched easily to create new models – the Carrera Heuer 01 represented the “avant-garde” side of TAG.
