Is this an OK watch?

Yeah, it's a pretty OK watch.
Arguably the best movement TAG-Heuer ever offered, heck, it's probably as good or better of a movement than Heuer ever offered back in the day. well executed case, dial, exceedingly well presented display case back,
I just wanted to show off my brand new CT511B.BA0564 Silver Link Calibre 36 Chronometer Chronograph! Very understandable. It's a great looking watch.
It was a gift from TAG Heuer. ¿Where's the queue for that action? Seriously, I've seen the 2005 TAG-Heuer website design contest and contestants and I think it's a great initiative for TAG-Heuer and a boon for folks who are interested in learning about the brand.
It is quite a change from even four years ago when there was next to zero content on either Heuer or TAG-Heuer on the web when Matthias Liebe-Kleymann and I started colaborating on our article on the history of the Heuer Carrera. |
Heuer Carrera Chronographs: A Brief Overview: Then, Now and the Future: Which lead Jeff Stein to contact me, and well, OTD is the result.
Does anyone have any specific questions about this particular watch? Sure... What are it's overall dimensions: Height, Length, thickness, weight...
Do you know if TAG-Heuer will ever come out with a version which has conventional lugs so people can swap on straps of their choice?
Another question I have about which isn't particularly about this watch, is if TAG-Heuer plans on coming out with a model of the Carrera (preferably as close to the original Carrera 12) but with a Zenith base movement of some stripe.
Enjoy the pictures! I have!
Jeff, we probably need to add Mac's website and the other contest winners to our links page. Mac, it'd be nice if you would add OnTheDash (the website, not the forum) to your links page for folks looking for more detailed information on Pre-TAG-Heuers...
Thanks for stopping by! Hope to see you visit often!
