TAG Heuer CS3111 Carrera 1964 Re‑Edition SS Black Dial

The TAG Heuer Carrera 1964 Re‑Edition (Ref. CS3111), introduced in the mid‑1990s (circa 1996–1998), is a remarkably faithful homage to the original 1960s Carrera chronograph. Presented here is the stainless steel 36 mm case variant with a striking matte black dial and pump chronograph pushers under a domed plexiglass crystal. Inside beats the revered Lemania Caliber 1873 manual‑wind chronograph movement — a robust and collector‑respected caliber shared with the Omega Speedmaster lineage — offering circa 40 hours of power reserve. The watch bears applied indices and tritium lume, lending an authentic 60s patina, while its modest 35–36 mm case and 18 mm lug width preserve vintage proportions rare on modern wrists. It carries approximately 3 ATM water resistance, befitting its dress‑chrono heritage. Highly prized among enthusiast circles, this Re‑Edition reinvigorated TAG Heuer’s tradition of heritage reinterpretations, setting a precedent for subsequent re‑issues of icons like Monaco and Autavia. With its combination of historical fidelity, mechanical pedigree, and restrained dimensions, the CS3111 stands as both an accessible entry into vintage chronograph collecting and a nuanced statement piece for seasoned collectors. Excellent condition with European Watch Company leather pouch.
