TAG Heuer Unveils Carbon Aquaracer And Monaco Bamford Watches (Prices)

TAG Heuer Aquaracer Carbon

Because TAG Heuer always needs to be on the cutting edge of cool and sleek, the brand unveils a new version of its beloved Aquaracer dive watch: Carbon Aquaracer. Crafted in PVD titanium, the watches — which are water resistant to 300 meters — are ultra lightweight. The newest series was inspired by the Monaco Bamford watch, created in cooperation with Bamford Watches.

Thanks to the random injection of carbon fibres into a resin pressed at high temperatures, each piece is unique, boasting an exclusive black and grey marbled motif. The 41mm PVD titanium Carbon Aquaracer is available in three models, each with hints of blue, yellow or rose gold hues on the carbon-effect dial. They also feature a unidirectional rotating carbon bezel. The dial boasts an imitation carbon effect with a pop of color on each dial. The ultra-lightweight Carbon Aqua racer houses the Caliber 5 movement.

The Carbon Aquaracer is finished by a black textile strap whose topstitching is color-coordinated with the dial accent color. It is a boutique exclusive and is available immediately. They retail for $4,000, with the rose-gold accented version selling for $4,050.
