TAG Heuer Carrera Calibre 5 Automatic review: build quality, movement accuracy and value for money at a glance.
The TAG Heuer Carrera Calibre 5 Automatic is the kind of watch that gets noticed at first glance: the case finishing, dial symmetry and attention to detail all suggest the designers spent real time on every millimeter. On the wrist day-to-day, the weight is well balanced and the strap/clasp sits without any play. It runs on a automatic movement and, within the men's chronograph category, performs with solid accuracy — over several days of testing we saw no noticeable drift. Low-light legibility is another strong point; the hands and indices make good use of lume. Against similarly-priced competitors, the TAG Heuer Carrera Calibre 5 Automatic holds up well on build quality and value for money. If you're after a watch that works both for everyday wear and dressier occasions, this model is worth a closer look.
Pros
- Well-balanced weight and fit
- Excellent low-light legibility
- Strap and clasp quality
Cons
- Limited strap color options
- Priced a bit higher than some competitors
