Calibre 16 Day-Date Automatic Chronograph Singapore Limited Edition
This extraordinary Carrera, developed specially for Singapore, is highlighted with green -- in line with the green and red logo of TAG Heuer, and also mirroring the glowing green borders on the Formula One night track (2009's Singapore Grand Prix was held at night). In correspondence to this unique night race format, the Carrera is equipped with a checked dial, distinctively representing Formula One racing, while its super luminous index captures the very essence of the glowing vibrancy of the night race.
“The launch of the limited edition TAG Heuer Grand Carrera Calibre 8 last year was a roaring success. Not only were the 150 pieces sold out within a mere 9 days, it was also auctioned off at the M.I.L.K. Charity Dinner Auction at a tag of $45,000. This second piece will definitely not be any less of a disappointment,” says Mr Jean-Christophe Babin, President and CEO of TAG Heuer. Mr Babin continued, “TAG Heuer always had a rich heritage involving motor racing and Formula One; it is indeed exciting to see that Singapore is once again hosting this amazing event. It is also an honor for TAG Heuer to be involved in this spectacular race, joining in the much anticipated excitement and celebration.
