Purple takes the spotlight with TAG Heuer's new Carrera Glassbox Chronograph duo

TAG Heuer expands its Carrera collection with two Glassbox models, both featuring purple dials. Ref. CBS2219 and CBS5017. Prices from CHF 6,500
TAG Heuer expands its Carrera collection with two striking Glassbox models, both featuring a smoky black-to-purple gradient dial, a colourway first seen in the TAG Heuer Monaco Chronograph in purple.

TAG Heuer Carrera Chronograph Purple and Carrera Chronograph Tourbillon Purple

Introduced in 2023, the Glassbox design  is defined by a domed sapphire crystal that spans the entire diameter of the watch, eliminating the bezel to offer an expansive view of the dial.

The new models feature dials with a smooth gradient effect, transitioning from deep black at the edges to a vibrant purple at the centre. This sunray-brushed finish enhances the play of light, adding depth and dimensionality. 

The chronograph counters are snailed in full black with contrasting silver accents, ensuring optimal legibility.

The first model is the TAG Heuer Carrera Chronograph Purple, ref. CBS2219.FC6607, housed in a 39 mm x 13.86 mm stainless steel case with alternating polished and brushed surfaces that emphasise its dynamic design.

The watch is powered by TAG Heuer’s in-house automatic chronograph calibre, the Heuer 02 (TH20-00), visible through the sapphire crystal case back. This new-generation movement introduces a bi-directional winding mechanism, an upgrade from previous versions that only wound the mainspring in an anti-clockwise direction.

This innovation ensures faster, more reliable winding, allowing the watch to maintain its 80-hour power reserve more efficiently while improving overall precision. The oscillating weight takes inspiration from the TAG Heuer shield logo.

The second model, the TAG Heuer Carrera Chronograph Tourbillon, ref. CBS5017.FC6605, is limited to just 200 pieces, as indicated by the engraving XXX/200 on the back of the 42 mm x 14.33 mm case.

It is powered by TAG Heuer’s in-house Heuer 02 (TH20-09) calibre. Certified as a chronometer by COSC (Contrôle Officiel Suisse des Chronomètres), this tourbillon movement beats at a frequency of 4 Hz (28,800 vibrations per hour) with a 65-hour power reserve.

The transparent sapphire crystal case back reveals the high level of finishing of the movement and its openworked rotor.

The TAG Heuer Carrera Glassbox Chronograph Tourbillon was launched in 2023 with a blue dial.

Both models are matched to a blue calfskin leather strap and water resistant to 10 ATM (100 metres / 330 feet).
