Like the Porsche Carrera, the Heuer Carrera ushered in a new era for Heuer and became one of the brand’s most famous designs. In the 1980s, Heuer was bought by Technique Avant Garde (TAG) and paved the way for re-editions of the Carrera in 1990s. Well-received by Heuer collectors, the present example in yellow gold Ref.
