Model Reference
The TAG Heuer Carrera CBM2112.FC6455 was released in the early 2019s and belongs to the family of Carreras released during the Calibre 16 era and which have since ceased manufacture. It has an automatic chronograph movement housed in a 41 mm case made of stainless steel. It is among the Carreras chronographs made during this era. What distinguishes the CBM2112.FC6455 from the other Carreras released in the same era is the presence of its blue dial with a brown perforated leather strap.
The brushed sunray finish of the blue dial suggests that its color varies under varying light conditions. In daylight, the blue is clearer compared to darkness, when the color looks more like black. The watch face has three counters. They include the 30 minutes counter situated at 12 o'clock position, the seconds counter at 9 o'clock position, and finally the hours counter at 6 o'clock position. Another element on the face is the date display situated at 3 o'clock position. The dial face design could be considered busy, yet reading of its elements is not difficult.
The case is made of steel and is 41mm large. Both brushed and polished surfaces were used in the production of the case which is bright and dark respectively. It features a 16.23mm thick case that provides an exceptionally luxurious feeling of the watch. It should be noted that the caseback is made from steel, not sapphire, and therefore the movement cannot be viewed through the caseback. It has water resistance up to 100 meters. The case came with the TAG Heuer reference on a brown perforated leather strap, equipped with a folding steel buckle.
Carrera was originally created as a racing chronograph and this particular CBM2112.FC6455 features some aspects of it. First of all, there are no large racing logos or any other sports symbols on the face of the watch, but the connection between the two items is evident - the watch has a chronograph with a time scale and a perforated leather band like driving gloves.
The watch contains a TAG Heuer Calibre 16 Automatic mechanism. It has a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour and 48-hour autonomy. This mechanism performs basic functions of displaying time and date as well as works with the chronograph that is able to measure both brief and long periods (up to 12 hours). This Calibre 16 mechanism was found in a range of automatic TAG Heuer chronographs, so it was really a very advanced mechanism at the time of manufacture of this Carrera.
Another detail worth pointing out is that the combination of brown strap and blue dial makes the watch look differently from an all steel Carrera. Brown leather softens the appearance of the steel case, while the blue dial provides most of the colour. It makes the CBM2112.FC6455 easy to recognise without relying on an unusual case shape or an oversized design.
