Thus the connections between TAG Heuer and Porsche developed organically, putting a degree of pressure-to-deliver on special editions. While the origins for both the automaker and the watchmaker are independent, the name Carrera began to take shape in the minds of enthusiasts. TAG Heuer and Porsche formally inked their partnership in 2021, and this is actually the first time the brands have come together. Jack Heuer launched the Carrera watch for Heuer (no TAG yet) in 1963, a full nine years before Porsche debuted its Carrera model. Before we get into the watches, we do need to back up a bit because this is a story about Carreras, and a narrative that unfolded quite naturally. The original Ducktail celebrates 50 years of greatness this year, and the Carrera Porsche Special Editions are fitting anniversary gifts. Both Carrera x Porsche RS 2.7 chronographs are tributes to the first car to bear the Carrera name, the Porsche RS 2.7. TAG Heuer and Porsche have top-of-mind recall when it comes to automaker and watchmaker partnerships, so these limited edition Carrera x Porsche RS 2.7 chronographs will be very well received.
