After the first meeting and in-depth understanding of the product range, the designer has a deep understanding of the history of TAG Heuer Carrera watches. The name kaarlela comes from the legendary one-week Carrera Pan-American Games held in Mexico in 1950s. With its innate racing pedigree, 1963, the first TAG HOYA KALERA chronograph specially designed for drivers shocked the world with its revolutionary dial design. As a historical innovation, the ring that fixes the dial to the case can become an indispensable second dial, making the display bigger and clearer. The performance specifications of the watch are based on mature ergonomics, and the design criteria are clear and easy to read: the ridge crown is used for manual winding every day, the buttons can be easily operated, the simple dial is equipped with clear scale and minute dial, and a concave timer is provided.
Hiroshi Fujiwara chose the original watch model of 1963, and based on it, he created a master work with fragment style.
"We have injected some unexpected design elements into TAG Heuer's current collection." Hiroshi Fujiwara said, "I don't want many new watches, but I won't miss this one!"
