Re: What are the upcoming models from Tag Heuer?

Hey Ash,

I too thought that the bracelet on the new Carrera was a little thin compared to the case. The Calibre 17 is an ETA 2894-2 base calibre with a chronograph module added to it. Here are the specs-

37 jewels, rapid date correction, power reserve of 42 hours approx,28,800 vibrations per hour.
This watch does look a little too Speedmaster-ish, but I think it's a great watch. It would probably look a million dollars on a padded leather strap as opposed to the thin bracelet.
