Actress Cara Delevingne is a TAG Heuer brand ambassador and helped to launch the revamped Carrera Lady collection.
Move over men, this one is for the women. TAG Heuer pulls out all the stops when it comes to the Carrera Lady collection– unveiling a host of new models, including colorful pieces — and turning to brand ambassador Cara Delevingne for the release. The newly designed 36mm collection boasts bold hues such as plum and blue, and features improved dial readability. Diamonds also make their appearance on certain models.
According to Delevingne, “For me a watch is not only a fashion accessory, it’s also something that reflects who you are and your way of life. In that regard, I like my watch to be daring, bold, and noticeable. The first thing you notice when you look at the Carrera watches is the design, the lines, the elegance without being too classic. I really like the touch of color, the stainless steel bracelet, and how you can wear them with different looks throughout the day”.

The new watches feature refined indexes and hands agains mother-of-pearl dials, or against black, gray or colorful dials. Each watch features a seconds scale is printed on the flange around the dial, and offers a date window at 3 o’clock via an intriguing trapezoid aperture. Curved lugs make for a more ergonomic appeal and straps are color-coordinated or offered in neutral tones such as taupe and gray. There is also a brushed and polished steel bracelet choice. The watches are offered in either a quartz version with stamped casebook, or in automatic models with transparent sapphire caseback.
The TAG Heuer Carrera collection was originally introduced in 1963 and has ties to the world of motor racing. While this concept continues to drive the line, the Carrera Lady line is an extension of the theme.The collection is now available for purchase on tagheuer.com and in TAG Heuer boutiques and ranges from $1,850 – $4,650 in price.
My Impressions: The collection is highly readable and nicely sized for today’s women. I love the new colors and the fact that one can get the watch with or without diamonds and with a choice of quartz or automatic movements. The retail price won’t break the bank, either, making this a great gift option, as well. It is a utilitarian watch made dressier thanks to color and style.
