TAG Heuer TAG Heuer Carrera Chronograph Seafarer × Hodinkee

The Seafarer is back! Inspired by one of our favorite references, the 1968 “2446C Seafarer”, the new Carrera Chronograph Seafarer x Hodinkee is fit for the modern adventuer. Reflecting on the past, and looking to the future, we opted for TAG Heuer’s 42mm Carrera “Glassbox” case. The case houses the new TH20-13 In-House Tide Indicator Chronograph Caliber — an evolution of the Heuer 02 movement, and responsible for the Seafarer’s iconic tide indicator function. The domed sapphire crystal allows us to recreate the profile of a vintage plexiglass crystal while being significantly more durable and clearer - both critical factors while out on the water. True to the color codes of the original, the black opaline dial is accented by shades of both sky and royal blue across the Regatta and Tide dials subdials. Looking a bit closer, the Seafarer logo was relocated to the sub-register at six o-clock, leveraging a Carrera font inspired by the late reference’s characterful blocky type. We kept the feeling of the late “2446C Seafarer” but made a conscious decision to look to the future of TAG Heuer, and in doing so, you will see the present-day TAG Heuer and Carrera logos at 12 o’clock. Oh, and you’ll noticed we removed the expected date window from the Carreras you see today. Lastly, the watch is fitted to a black textured rubber strap - making it fit for life at sea. This watch is truly the embodiment of everything we love about TAG Heuer– past and present.
