For some, the idea of ‘luxury quartz’ is a complete contradiction.

The Barrelhand P1 is designed to highlight its mechanisms and futuristic technology and it does that very well. From the visible cam plate mechanism to the metal binder jet components, it’s obvious that this is not a dainty watch even if the proportions keep it within the standards of large avant-garde watches like Urwerk and MB&F;.

The four new models are different variants of the Tag Heuer Carrera Calibre Heuer 02.
