This coming year is The Year of the Dragon according to the Chinese Lunar Calendar and Tag Heuer has launched the Carrera Chronograph Year of the Dragon.
Coming in two variants - rose gold and steel, the steel is limited to 300 pieces worldwide while the rose gold piece is limited to 50 pieces worldwide.
The red sub-dials and the croc strap are more burgundy than red - and I like it!
I managed to snag one of the steel version. Comes in a nice red leather box with a special inscription.
The back of the case features an exhibition case back with a printed Dragon.
Beating inside is the in-house Calibre Heuer 02 movement offering 80 hours of power reserve
The silver sunburst dial of the timepiece adds a charm to it.
The Chinese calligraphy word for Dragon is inscribed at the 6 o'clock position above the date window.
The chrono hand is colour coordinated.

Retails for SGD9,000 (inclusive of 8% GST), I think it is a great proposition for those born in the Year of the Dragon.
The steel case is 42mm and the timepiece is rated to 100m water resistance. Reference number CBN201H.FC6553.
If you want want, better go get it soon... it's really limited. By the way, this is my first Tag Heuer timepiece!
