With The Jack Heuer 80th Birthday Carrera (Live Photos, Availability, And Official Pricing) replica watches

Click to expand.One watch we were really excited to see was the Jack Heuer 80th Birthday Carrera from TAG Heuer, that was announced publicly the week before Basel replica watches uk World began. Often times, a watch that looks good in pictures doesn’t always translate into a handsome piece in the metal – luckily that is not the case with the Jack Heuer Carrera. This thing rocks. orologi replica

Sized at a nice 41mm, this special Carrera was designed by Jack Heuer himself, which is why it looks as if it could’ve been made 40+ years ago, and perhaps the reason why it stands out from the rest of the Carrera bunch.

What makes this one special is the dual register layout (all Cal 1887’s are tri-register), the bright red accents for the “Heuer” shield (notice it’s not TAG Heuer on this one), the seconds hand, and the lining of the strap. Jack designed the strap so that the wearer could actually see the red lining without taking the watch off, right through the perforation (or “speed holes” as Mr. Simpson would call them). The dial is an incredibly bright silver with a sunray effect. The bezel is polished nicely and the tachymeter is on a super fake Tag Heuer slick dark grey flange, and has the number “80” in bright red signifying the importance of this watch. The registers feature a nice “azurage” or ridging that gives them a lot of depth and a really pleasing contrast against the smooth dial. It really is worth expanding the picture above and paying close attention to the details of this dial – it is rather well done.

Production of the Jack Heuer 80th Birthday Carrera will be limited to 3000 pieces worldwide, and the caseback will bear Jack’s signature, the Heuer coat of Arms, and each piece’s number out of the run. The price, when it hits stores in the coming months, will be $4900.
