This is a unique way of displaying a second time zone for seasoned travellers, or those simply interested in what time it is at the location their foreign friends or colleagues. The 42.5mm Calibre 8 RS has a normal hour/minute/seconds analogue display, a large double aperture date window and a rotating GMT display. A combination of dial colours and strap types makes for a personalised dress watch. The Calibre 6 is available in full stainless steel or two tone steel and gold. This new display mechanism is immediately mesmerising and simply downright cool. The 40.2mm Calibre 6 RS has a normal hour/minute analogue display, a date window and a semi-circular aperture presenting the seconds. All models in the range are COSC certified, which is a reflection of Tag Heuer’s ultimate commitment to quality with this range of ground-breaking and beautifully made timepieces. The initial range consisted of the classy Calibre 6 with time and date, the Calibre 8 with an additional large date and rotating GMT display and the Calibre 17 with a chronograph function incorporating a rotating minutes display. Secondly, the Grand Carrera would be the chosen vehicle for a brand new concept in mechanical time display by virtue of the innovative RS (Rotating System) movements. Tag Heuer 1887 – My review | Andrew Michaels Jewellers Please see my article on the Carrera, including the in-house movement motivated 1887, here: First of all the range was to become an upgraded luxury timepiece based on the original and famous Carrera.

This new range of timepieces was significant on two counts. The Grand Carrera models were first introduced by Tag Heuer in 2007.
