TAG Heuer x fragment Reveals Pared-Back Carrera Glassbox
TAG Heuer x fragment reveals pared-back Carrera glassbox with a new limited-edition chronograph designed by Hiroshi Fujiwara. The 39 mm stainless-steel case houses an automatic TH20-00 movement with 80-hour power reserve and offers water-resistance to 100 m. The dial combines a matte-black opalin face with a white curved flange carrying the tachymeter scale, stark silver hands and minimal Super-LumiNova hour markers.
The date aperture at 12:00 shows Fujiwara’s signature lightning-bolt logo at numerals 1 and 11, a subtle signature etched into an otherwise clean layout. The bracelet is a reworked seven-link “beads-of-rice” design with black-coated central links to echo the dial’s monochrome scheme. Inside, the TH20-00 calibre uses a vertical clutch and column wheel for chronograph actuation and offers a smooth 4 Hz beat rate.
