Like a new TH20 movement inside and a re-designed 39mm ‘glassbox’ case design in blue or a reverse-panda white on black version? At £5,600, the two options negate any complaint of there being too much choice and instead focus on the watchmaking skills used to craft it and the sapphire crystal that’s pushed to the very edge of the case so that the tachymeter scale is legible from all angles.
The Carrera has spawned more than 500 references in 60 years so devising a way to make it feel new and relevant required something extra special. Yes, it shares its name with a much-fancied Porsche but it has an identity and a history in a league of the likes of Patek’s Nautilus, Rolex’s Daytona, Breitling’s Navitimer, Cartier’s Tank, Omega’s Speedmaster and AP’s Royal Oak. No beating around the bush, the Carrera is among the most recognisable watches ever created.
