In 1962, Jack Heuer, who loved racing, met the famous Mexican F1 drivers Rodriguez brothers at the Sebring 12 Hours Endurance Race held in Florida. When he learned that the Pan-American Road Race was full of dangers and changes rapidly, he immediately named a chronograph worn on his wrist after the Spanish word for the race, Carrera. Jack Heuer, the great-grandson of the founder of Heuer, began to take over the company in the same year. At that time, Heuer was famous for producing sports timers, dashboard clocks and more and more chronographs. Jack Heuer always remembered the high-speed, bold and challenging Pan-American Road Race, so he hoped to create a watch that could meet the high-intensity needs of racing. So just one year after he took charge of the company, the first Carrera chronograph was born. In a blink of an eye, more than 60 years have passed, and today's Carrera series chronographs have become one of the most prestigious chronographs in the world.
Compared with the previous Carrera skeleton chronograph, the new Carrera Extreme Sports series can be said to have undergone earth-shaking changes. First of all, the size has been changed from the previous 45 and 43 mm to the same 44 mm diameter as the new Carrera sports series. The case material is currently only grade 2 titanium and 18K rose gold. It is speculated that the series will no longer use stainless steel in the future, but will try more types of high-tech materials. Secondly, the case and strap are more integrated, and the three horizontal stripes on the side of the case are decorative and visually weaken the 15.1 mm case thickness. Finally, there is its new hollow dial. Compared with the old model, the most profound impression of this hollow dial is that it is strong and extremely symmetrical. Not only has the calendar been adjusted from the previous 4 o'clock position to the 6 o'clock position, but the overall X shape makes the whole watch extremely balanced and also indicates its infinite possibilities in the future. In particular, the exquisite brushed polishing of the plywood under the dial adds a depth and texture beyond the conventional hollow chronograph.

TH20-00 automatic chronograph movement, as an evolutionary version of the Heuer 02 movement, was launched by TAG Heuer in 2017. The swing frequency is 4 Hz, with a column wheel and a vertical clutch mechanism, and the power system has been upgraded from the unidirectional winding of the Heuer 02 movement to a bidirectional winding, which further improves the winding efficiency of the movement while retaining an 80-hour power reserve. In terms of movement decoration, in addition to the conventional Geneva stripes and the automatic rotor in the shape of the TAG Heuer shield logo, the column wheel will also be intimately kept in the same color as the dial and strap.
