Discover Tag Heuer’s Carrera, craftsmanship and spring at Ion Orchard

Tatler Singapore’s branded content editor Adriel Chiun hosted a dynamic group of Gen.T alumni to discover the launch of the incredibly progressive line of Tag Heuer Carrera timepieces at the acclaimed watchmaker’s Singapore outpost at Ion Orchard—but not before a quick jaunt around the mall’s whimsical Spring Garden.

Boasting a 6-metre-tall water feature, Ion Orchard’s outdoor installation comes alive in an 8-minute light show that also has a musical element with mist effects. The perfect photo backdrop, Tatler Singapore’s guests spent a leisurely evening stroll and admired the manmade waterfall on their way to the Tag Heuer boutique inside.

While at Tag Heuer, the guests were treated to a preview trailer of the Tag Heuer Carrera—starring Hollywood heartthrob and ambassador of the house, Ryan Gosling. First introduced to much fanfare in 1963, Tag Heuer’s Carrera line is a legendary collection of luxury watches that has stood the test of time and quickly gained popularity among race car enthusiasts and aficionados alike. The timepieces were designed in the spirit of aerodynamics with a sleek and sporty aesthetic that calls to racing with an unparalleled presicion and accuracy. Today, the Tag Heuer Carrera still remains a highly coveted timepiece amongst fans for combining the brand’s unrivalled expertise in craftsmanship and motorsports.

Known for its instantly recognisable design, each watch is crafted with high-quality materials and is powered by a movement unlike any other. Featuring a stainless steel case and bracelet, a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, and a water resistance rating of up to 100 meters.
