There’s one smartwatch that we’re very interested to see when it eventually shows its face: the Tag Heuer Carrera Wearable 01. That’s the official name that has been dropped today courtesy of Tag Heuer CEO, Jean-Claude Biver, and continues the branding that Tag Heuer has established with the Carrera range. In fact, it appears that the Carrera Wearable 01 will take many of its visual cues from its more mechanical brethren – as Biver says “Somehow, one should not see from a certain distance the difference between a Carrera Heuer 01 and a Carrera Wearable 01.”
What’s most interesting about this device is that Tag Heuer is probably the first to consider the longevity of its smartwatch beyond its yearly refresh. Citing the possibility of interchangeable parts, UK communications manager, Alexandra King, said: “If your child completed their Masters degree, you might want to give them a watch. We want to create something that will stay on your watch for a lifetime, that’s what Tag Heuer does. And as the technology changes, it will change.”
Personally, I can’t wait to see how this watch turns out, but if you’re hoping to shell out for this one, you’ll need some deep pockets – the Carrera Wearable 01 is going to cost at least $1,400 sometime this October or November. What do you think about the Tag Heuer Carrera Wearable 01? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
