| The TAG Heuer Carrera Calibre 5 automatic watch is a watch looks like a fine back-to-school present for the kid. As a watch from the famous watch brand, Tag Heuer, it is a timepiece with its typical watch features.
Tag Heuer's ''Caliber 5'' movement is basically just an ordinary (AFAIK,UGG Boots, non-COSC-certified) ETA 2824-2 industry workhorse with some minor decoration. Although considered slightly inferior to the ETA 2892-A2, the movement is nevertheless widely used by numerous brands to power their ''entry-level'' offerings. Even scanning through this particular site,boots on sale, you may notice that the ETA 2824-2 caliber powers a great number of modern watches,wedding rings for women, starting with Archimede Pilot T Titanium modestly priced at ?375 and going up to Oris Rectangular Bob Dylan Limited Edition, which is about three times more expensive. The secret of success is rather obvious: the movement is highly reliable and incredibly cheap when bought in great numbers. Although sporting the general design of the Carrera family (including the Clous de Paris dial decoration pattern, polished baton hands with luminous substance and twelve applied hour markers instead of Arabic or Roman numerals,mulberry bag,) the watch also features a date display window layout clearly inspired by IWC Pilot's Watch Double Chronograph Edition TOP GUN model. Frankly, I do not really understand why on Earth did TAG Heuer's designers have to employ such a concept on this particular watch. IWC needed this kind of feat to somehow balance the chronograph's busy dial. Seems that TAG's folks achieved quite the opposite. This is definitely a beautiful watch. If the price is not so high, it is a good watch which is worth to buy. |
