The Incredible Tribute to 75 Years of Formula One: TAG Heuer's Spectacular Carrera Chronograph Tourbillon Extreme Sport Edition

Boasting an unrivalled connection to the high-speed world of international motorsports, TAG Heuer is now reviving its roots to Formula One. As the racing calendar winds down, the renowned watchmaker keeps the celebration alive with a fitting tribute to this thrilling sport’s champions – the TAG Heuer Carrera Chronograph Tourbillon Extreme Sport F1 75th Anniversary Limited Edition.

This unique timepiece, every bit as vibrant as its name suggests, is without a doubt one of the most ornately impressive forms of the modern Carrera. Its beefy 44mm wide, Grade 2 titanium case mirrors the aesthetics of the base Carrera Extreme Sport. However, the main case body blends a modernized silhouette of the classic Carrera with broad, muscular angular lugs and sporty, ridged case side cutouts, markedly setting it apart.

Exquisitely finished, the rear of the watch features several unique design elements. A sapphire display caseback reveals the watch’s impressive internals, capped by a gold laurel wreath and an additional Formula One logo. Rather than the expected numeral sequence from one through 75, each of the 75 examples stands for a momentous year in the Formula 1’s history, stretching from 1950 to 2025. This signifies that every watch in this series pays homage to an individual F1 world champion.

The Carrera Chronograph Tourbillon Extreme Sport F1 75th Anniversary Limited Edition’s skeleton dial shares similarities with its predecessors, but the new version ramps up the aesthetic drama. Laying beneath the sapphire crystal is an opulent new colorway featuring multi-spoke wheel-inspired upper bridges, with a vibrant combination of gleaming 18K yellow gold against a backdrop of matte black recesses. This intricate aesthetic invokes an Art Deco effect while respecting the timepiece’s motor racing roots. Integrating superior design with intricate timekeeping, this release is TAG Heuer’s grand salute to the eminent racing series that is Formula One.
