The Juice:
It’s hard to know where to start when faced with such an impressive watch, however, the dial on this one is rather helpful in that regard. It’s hard to overlook the mass of shining and shimmering reflections that bounce playfully off the polycrystalline surface- created by growing thousands of individual diamonds as one. The dial is decorated with flawless baguette cut diamonds and a 1.4ct yellow diamond logo, which were grown in a lab using TAG’s latest innovations in diamond technology.
Made out of white gold, the case is a mere vessel for the beautiful cargo that it transports- all 4.8 carats of it. The sleek and elegant lines of the Carrera Date are enhanced a million times over by the grey dulcet tones of the precious material. However, the star is definitely the 1.3 carat yellow diamond crown that has been engraved with the TAG Heuer logo. Diamonds of this size are a rarity on watch, let alone as such an important component, that ties the movement to the outside world.
Speaking of the movement, this bejeweled masterpiece is powered by the reliable and wickedly precise TAG Calibre 7, which is visible through the sapphire caseback.
The watch comes on a luxurious white alligator leather strap, adding that extra level of opulence and finishing off the whole ensemble.
The whole raison d’être of the latest TAG Heuer Carrera Date Plasma Diamant d'Avant-Garde is to display the brand’s cutting-edge diamond growing technology and it has done so with some panache. This fantastic piece will fascinate enthusiasts of both watches and jewelry the world over, and will definitely be the center of attention
