Is that this watch?
Seems to be a new Carrera Dato release, but I've only seen posts of it in Asian markets. Do you have any details?
Yes that was it. He said they had just received it ready for an imminent release.
I believe to celebrate the new Chinese Zodiac.
On the 7th of every month, the date window will show a written form of the Zodiac if my memory serves we right.
They also had the latest Fujiwara which I had already seen at the summit.
Neither my cup of tea really but nice pieces.

Thanks! It must be for the Year of the Horse (2026). I know quite a few Chinese/Japanese characters but did not recognize the character in the date window. But since you mentioned the Zodiac characters, I looked up "Horse" and there it is.
This seems to be the character used with the Zodiac. The normal Chinese character for Horse is this one.
I've said it before, I'll say it again, TAG Heuer should hire you as a designer. 😉
But the first watch that came to my mind was the Team Ikuzawa. 😜
Do you think they'd be interested in a youthful, just turned 50-yr old creative designer who's interested in an internship? That would make for a good story, right?

Why not? Never too late to follow your dreams. It would be like Nathon Fillion's character in the Rookie (ABC TV Series).
I'm just starting my next model car project, a 1/20th scale plastic kit of the '94 Williams FW16. I spotted this tiny TAG Heuer decal as part of the decal set, which I find curious.
It seems the Williams used some kind of TAG Heuer electronics, I'm guessing perhaps part of the F1 timing equipment? I wonder if all the F1 cars of that era had a similar device. Or maybe it's not related to F1 time keeping at all?
Anyone know what this is?
I would think it's a transponder or transmitter related to telemetry or time keeping.Possibly the clip that is visible is a tamper proof seal, so an FIA mandated bit of kit.
Here is one from a kart, looks a similar sort of thing.
I would imagine they would have some value, especially the middle two because of the Ayrton Senna connection. Albert and Michael will probably fight over those...
I also think this is the transponder for the official timekeeping. The attention to detail in this scale kit is amazing! 😳👍🏼
