No problems Carlos,

If its not from an Authorised Dealer, then you can be confident that a blue Carrera 1887 is not a genuine watch.

David, thanks for the quick reply…

no it was not a Tag Certified dealer… more like a second hand shop…. claiming to know about watches. I’ll try to get a pic in the next few days….

Hi Carlos,

The Carrera 1887 is only available in two colours: white/ silver and black. There is no blue.

Having said that, I have never heard of a Dealer selling a fake watch. Is it an Authorised TAG Heuer Dealer?

TAG Heuer does make some special versions of its watches for particular countries from time to time…if you have a photo that would solve things pretty quickly.

Good day

A dealer in Australia was trying to sell me a Carrera Caliber 1887 with a blue dial/bezel, Iwas a little apprehensive as I never deal with this guy and I’m more familiar with Oris and Hamilton watches. If my research is correct Tag Heuer never made a blue bezel one??? can anyone advice!!!

Carlos from Western Australia.

No Eric, shouldn’t do any damage, especially if you’ve only done it a few times

I’ve just brought one and had a question about the crown. I know turning it clockwise winds it up but does turning it anti clockwise cause any damage? I did that when I first got it and was a little concerned.

many thanks in advance.

Have just picked up my 1887 from Tag in London, went for the black strap, white dial. In all honesty, i’m slightly disappointed in waiting 6 months from ordering to find they have changed it! Thought the design was perfect!

No, I think that they’ve made the call to take the tachy off- probably to set it apart from other watches in the Carrera range, such as the Day/ Date. Agree that its worth the wait to see one in person and work out which one you really want.

Haven’t heard anything about 43mm- suspect not.

I really wish that the tachymetre will be an option. Do some of you know if it will come with a 43 mm case?
And btw i was so close buying the new carrera but the shop told me this one was on its way, so might as well wait for it and see if its cooler !
