Model Reference
TAG HEUER CARRERA CAR201T.FC6406
Production Years:
The TAG Heuer Carrera CAR201T.FC6406 was introduced around 2017 as part of the Carrera Calibre Heuer 01 generation. This period of the Carrera placed considerable emphasis on contemporary chronograph engineering and more technical dial architecture, moving away from the restrained appearance associated with some earlier Carrera references. TAG Heuer now officially lists the CAR201T.FC6406 as discontinued.
Rather than relying solely on the Carrera's motorsport heritage for its identity, this reference combines a 43mm case, blue detailing and the Calibre Heuer 01 automatic movement. The result is a Carrera that belongs clearly to the modern, mechanically expressive side of the collection.
Defining Features
The CAR201T.FC6406 features a 43mm fine brushed and polished steel and ceramic case. A fixed steel and ceramic bezel is specified by TAG Heuer for this model, as the blue dial provides an interesting contrast against the metal case construction. Although the water-resistance level is 100 meters, it offers good protection against splashes during the everyday use of a non-diving watch.
As far as the power source goes, this reference comes equipped with TAG Heuer’s Calibre Heuer 01 Automatic movement. The chronograph mechanism makes it more interesting from the mechanical point of view and offers additional complications compared to the simple three hand dial of the Carrera family member. Also, the openworked dial allows some elements of the calibre to show through.
Finally, there is an interesting feature regarding the strap that needs discussion. Despite the fact that the description of the reference is basically correct, the exact materials of the strap could be mentioned. As far as TAG Heuer is concerned, the watch is fitted with a blue rubber and alligator strap with a fine brushed steel folding clasp.
About TAG Heuer Carrera Model Number CAR201T.FC6406
It is very different from how a closed dial Carrera would usually be constructed. The mechanical structure behind the time display plays a very prominent role in creating the look of the watch. Rather than keeping it apart from the visual aspects of the watch, the Calibre Heuer 01 movement becomes an integral part of what one would see when wearing the watch.
The use of blue also goes beyond just a subtle touch. The blue extends from the dial to the strap and contrasts the steel and ceramic case. With a size of 43mm, the watch has sufficient room to incorporate the chronograph features and the openworking design without making the features too tiny.
The Calibre Heuer 01 movement is especially significant in the context of this reference. It is a modern version of an automatic chronograph by TAG Heuer and defines the mechanical essence of the CAR201T.FC6406. It means that the watch incorporates three different features of the Carrera.
