TAG Heuer unveils three Carrera Extreme watches, celebrating the 75th anniversary of Formula 1. The 2025 Carrera Extreme collection sees TAG Heuer introduce new models: a chronograph, a GMT watch, and a tourbillon.

With its skeletonized features and chunky case, bold, green, and gold are the name of the game.

The new Twin-Time is the most affordable, followed by the chronograph, with the highest price expected to be the limited-edition tourbillon.

Over the past few years, TAG Heuer has steadily pursued a vintage-inspired path with its latest chronograph offerings, achieving significant success. While the 39mm Glassbox was relaunched to widespread acclaim and spawned numerous derivative and homage models, the brand has reserved more modern technical experiments for the Aquaracer. But for a brand that once produced standard-issue watches like the Mikrogirder (high-end) and the Grand Carrera Caliper Chronograph, it makes sense to revitalize its most legendary creations. That's what happened last year with the relaunch of the Carrera Extreme Sport, and the collection has been expanding ever since. Today, three new members join the lineup, including a new complication and a special tribute model.

Meet the new Twin-Time watch! It completely transforms the brand's flagship product, the sporty everyday watch launched at Watches & Wonders 2025, into an oversized chronograph with a two-tone ceramic bezel. This type of bezel has been around for some time, but it's notoriously difficult to manufacture, making this a first for TAG Heuer. I love the watch's understated black and seaweed green color scheme, but that's pretty much its only draw. Its Grade 2 titanium case measures 44mm in diameter, 16.7mm thick, and 49.7mm from lug to lug, so I think the name "Extreme" is a perfect fit.

It comes on a rubber strap with a titanium buckle, featuring a cool end-link design that makes the strap appear to extend past the lugs and connect directly to the case. The new Twin-Time, powered by a derivative of the Heuer caliber 02/TH20-00 (now renamed the TH20-02), features automatic winding and an 80-hour power reserve.

If you're looking for a watch that's just as large but thicker, TAG Heuer has you covered. Released in its purest chronograph form, the thickness has been slightly reduced to 15.1mm, but I'm not worried it loses any visual impact—after all, it's pure rose gold. However, some components, such as the pushers, crown, and caseback, are made of DLC-coated titanium, so some consideration has been made with the material—though I doubt TAG Heuer should have gone to such lengths. Admittedly, it would have further increased the already high cost.

The brushed bezel contrasts beautifully with the polished, scalloped lugs, echoing the dial's guilloché pattern that covers the movement. I've expressed my feelings about skeletonization before, so I'll use the term "open dial" here, as all watches offer a glimpse of the movement beneath. In this case, the TH20-00 shares all the same specifications as the Twin-Time, minus the GMT function.

Finally, we come to the grand finale—the 75-piece limited edition TAG Heuer Carrera Chronograph Tourbillon Extreme Sports | F1® 75th Anniversary Limited Edition. Yes, the "|" and registered trademark are part of the official name, and it's certainly quite long. Despite being the most high-end complication in the collection, TAG Heuer chose to create the F1® 7th Anniversary Limited Edition in a mix of materials, including 3N gold and grades 2 and 5 titanium. The case retains all the dimensions of the chronograph model, so the tourbillon-equipped TH20-09 caliber doesn’t add to the thickness, though the power reserve does drop to a still-respectable 65 hours.
