Grand Carrera Calibre 36 RS Caliper Chronograph is the winner of the Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève 2008. The Grand Prix de l’Horlogerie de Genève is the most prestigious award won by this timepiece epitomizing the spirit of Grand Carrera and TAG Heuer motor racing heritage. It also was crowned in China by The Most Successful Design Award 2008 and in Mexico during the Salon Internacional de Alta Relojeria 2008. Jean-Christophe Babin, President and CEO said: “It is the fifth time TAG Heuer is awarded the Grand Prix de l’Horlogerie… but every time is the first time! This is a great achievement for the people at TAG Heuer.”

The Grand Carrera was launched to great acclaim and commercial success in June 2007, drawing its inspiration from modern GT cars. It is powered by the first mechanical line of movements with Rotating System, an exclusive new function that enables the user to read easily and intuitively small seconds, a second time zone (GMT) or chronograph time by displaying the elapsed time.

The Grand Carrera Calibre 36 RS Caliper Chronograph is powered by a column wheel movement. It is the only automatic chronograph capable of measuring and displaying 1/10ths of a second! Visible through a tinted double sapphire crystal, the COSC-certified movement oscillates at 36,000 vph. This enables the central seconds hand to tick off 1/10th second intervals, giving at-a-glance readings of an unparalleled exactitude.

The breathtaking creation has a stylish 43-mm, black titanium carbide-coated case, and a Calibre 36 RS movement with more than 50 hours power reserve and two “Black Gold” Rotating Systems indicating the chronograph minutes at 3 o’clock and the chronograph hours at 6 o’clock. It also features a Linear Second at 9 o’clock. Another principle design innovation is the way in which it displays this information. The new high tech soft touch alligator strap with red stitching and red lining makes a perfect match to the case of the Grand Carrera.

A dream award for a dream chronograph… A unique momentum to celebrate TAG Heuer’s unique racing DNA and commitment to design and technology.
