  • In our longest episode of Reference Points yet, Hodinkee Founder Ben Clymer invites TAG Heuer's Heritage Director, Nicholas Biebuyck to discuss the history and specs of all Carreras in the vintage era, specifically before the acquisition of Heuer by TAG in the mid-1980s. Also included are mentions of the special pieces that have come along since, and a few pieces that immediately preceded the actual Carrera family.

    So enjoyable. Nicholas really made this fun and interesting, and Ben always teasing out good extra details. Could watch this kind of discussion for hours.

    Very nice video! I still have my Carrerea 1153 I got in 1973. It still works, and I love it❤

    The Volvo watch is insane. This was a great way to learn about the Carrera history in one quick watch. Great video!

    A return to form! I quite like Nicholas Biebuyck's phrase "anthropological collector" that he introduces towards the end -- very suggestive!

    Thanks for the video. Great history on the Carrera watches. New 39mm GlassBox Carreras are amazing.

    Love this video -- the passion and knowledge shines through. I thought I knew some of the history but learned so much. I'm lucky to own a 1970 1153 but now I'm coveting one of the precursor manual winds from the the 1960s (if only I had the brass razoos). More like this please Hodinkee
