The measurement
We do not ask you for it. The atelier's archive knows the Carrera references one by one: the lug width, the case, the years. Below is what the archive says today; from the reference, the rest follows. The watch stays on your wrist.
What changes for the strap
The end of the strap follows the profile of the case between the two lugs. The archive tells you what measurement your reference has.
The leather
Alligator, box calf, suede, shell cordovan: the leather is chosen together, in the atelier or by video call. Where it enters between the lugs, the strap is as thin as needed; on the wrist it returns to its thickness. The calf lining, the edges painted in several layers, the hand stitching in saddle stitch.
The time
Four, five weeks from confirmation. In the atelier in Via XX Settembre or by video call, wherever you are. Care for the first eighteen months is included.
The next step
The right strap is not chosen. It is built together.
In the atelier in Via XX Settembre or by video call, wherever you are.

Six generations
The Carrera was born in 1963 with reference 2447: Valjoux 72 calibre, the name from the Carrera Panamericana. In 1969 came the automatic version with the Calibre 11, in 1996 the reissue faithful to the first case; from 2023 the 39 mm case with domed sapphire crystal. Between the lugs, the 2447 and the reissue measure 18 mm.
Heuer Carrera 2447
The first Carrera, from 1963, has faceted lugs, the manual-wind Valjoux 72 calibre and 18 millimetres between the lugs.
Carrera 1153, the barrel case
With the automatic Calibre 11 of 1969, the Carrera takes the barrel case of reference 1153, with 20 millimetres between the lugs.
The 1996 reissue
In 1996 the Carrera returns with the 36 mm case and the long, faceted lugs of the first series; the calibre is the manually wound Lemania 1873, 18 millimetres between the lugs.
Carrera Calibre 16
The CV20 series brings the tachymeter scale to the bezel: 41 mm case, automatic Calibre 16, 20 millimetres between the lugs.
Carrera Chronograph 42 mm, Heuer 02
From 2020 the 42 mm Carrera Chronograph houses the in-house Heuer 02 calibre; 22 millimetres between the lugs.
Carrera Chronograph Glassbox, 39 mm
Since 2023 the 39 mm case with the domed sapphire crystal and the TH20-00 calibre: on the CBS2210, 20.7 millimetres between the lugs and the original strap in perforated black calf.
