TAG Heuer CS 3111 Black dial

The Heuer Carrera CS3111 is a faithful tribute to one of the most iconic chronograph designs in watchmaking history. Introduced in the 1990s, this re-edition draws inspiration from Jack Heuer’s original Carrera, a watch conceived for motorsport enthusiasts who demanded exceptional legibility and a clean, functional design.

The stainless steel case features beautifully shaped, faceted lugs, complemented by a black dial with three recessed sub-dials and contrasting silver-coloured markers. The inner tachymeter scale and classic pump pushers reinforce its racing heritage, while the compact case proportions preserve the vintage character that makes this reference so appealing.

Powering the watch is the renowned manual-winding Lemania calibre 1873, a respected chronograph movement also closely associated with the Omega Speedmaster Professional. Its traditional construction and engaging winding experience make it particularly attractive to enthusiasts who appreciate mechanical chronographs.

This example has been serviced and is fitted with a handmade Italian leather strap, complemented by its original Heuer-signed buckle. Combining neo-vintage appeal with an important movement and a design rooted in the golden age of motorsport, the Carrera CS3111 is an excellent addition to any collection of classic chronographs.
