TAG Heuer Carrera Chronograph x Porsche Orange Racing

TAG Heuer and Porsche paths have been intertwining on and off the racetrack.  Delighted fans of both brands with five timepieces previously, now they launched their sixth - the new TAG Heuer Carrera Chronograph x Porsche Orange Racing.  44mm steel case with DLC coating and ceramic bezel housing an automatic Calibre HEUER 02 with a rotor shaped like the Porsche steering wheel and a subtle touch of orange on the column wheel.

Several photographs from recent LVMH Watch Week in Singapore (while awaiting embargo to be lifted today) ...

Seems a bit cluttered with large numerals on both bezel and dial. Kong
