Feature: The TAG Heuer Hero Watches You NEED To Know

By Craig Hawes

With celebrity endorsements from the likes of uber-cool actor Ryan Gosling and strong links to the world of sport, TAG Heuer is a brand on many people’s wish lists. If you’re after a TAG yourself but are stuck on what model to get, we’ve got a few suggestions for you with our pick of the ultimate TAG Heuer watches.

TAG Heuer Carrera

The 1963 release of the TAG Heuer Carrera was inspired by the notoriously treacherous motor race from the 1950s, the Carrera Panamericana. Built for whizzing round the track, TAG has since collaborated with luxury car manufacturer Porsche to create a special edition Carrera. With a whole host of different designs under its belt, you can bag a Carrera with simply the time and a date window or opt for a sporty chronograph—the choice is yours.

TAG Heuer Aquaracer

The Aquaracer is TAG Heuer’s answer to a professional dive watch and not only that, but recent model—the Professional 200—is described as an “all-terrain luxury tool watch” that can be worn for extreme sports, mountaineering and the like. Flaunting that classic horizontally striped dial and angular shaped bezel, this is a TAG that’ll go onto to inspire adventurers for years to come.

TAG Heuer Formula 1

Just like the Carrera and the beloved Monaco, the TAG Heuer Formula 1 is another watch created with motorsport in mind. In 1971, TAG became the first non-automotive brand to sponsor motor racing, through which, every Ferrari driver started to wear its watches. By 1986 the Formula 1 was launched and tested by McLaren drivers to much success. Today, the Formula 1 remains synonymous with the sport, as TAG sponsors Red Bull’s Formula 1 team.
