The two Carrera family watches in this article are two of the most expensive timepieces 1:1 replica TAG Heuer has ever produced. There is no doubt that these two “Plasma Diamant” watches are strange and very expensive, but they are also extremely rare and interesting manifestations of modern luxury watches. This journey began back in 2022 when the brand released the perfect fake TAG Heuer Carrera Plasma Tourbillon Nanograph (Ref. XCBN5A90.FC8315).
This took the 44mm wide aaa quality replica TAG Heuer Carrera Chronograph case concept and transformed the historic sports watch style into something a lot more decorative and modern. The viewer was meant to notice the large asymmetrically set baguette-cut diamonds put into the matte black case, the machined diamond crown, the baguette-cut diamond hour markers, and of course the diamond texture face. The super clone watch used a more traditional polished black ceramic tachymeter-style bezel and watch matched to a simple black strap. The price of the watch was set at a staggering 350,000 Swiss Francs.
Only a year later in 2023, Swiss made replica TAG Heuer UK upped the ante on the same concept considerably by debuting the even more elevated TAG Heuer Carrera Plasma Diamant d’Avant Garde (Ref. CNBN5A91.BZ0000). Keeping the same movement and 44mm wide black aluminum case, the TAG Heuer Carrera replica for sale took the concept in a more jewelry-style direction by adding a black bezel and bracelet that were likewise set with the large lab-grown diamonds for a much more bold and interesting decorative effect. The price reached CHF 500,000 and a while ago, we went hands-on with that upgraded version. Building on that review, I offer my take on the watches and how people may want to think about them.
Several years ago in 2019, top quality replica TAG Heuer introduced a new mainspring technology called Isograph. The technology was supposed to be a carbon-based alternative to silicon mainsprings in watches, to replace more historically metal mainsprings. Non-metallic hair/balance springs are resistant to magnetism and have only benefits over metal such as lower friction and some other advantages. Isograph hairsprings were produced in-house by LVMH and were intended to outfit the lower-priced Autavia collection of TAG Heuer super clone watches online. The only problem was the Isograph wasn’t quite ready for industrialization. While the technology worked, it proved difficult to mass produce the hairsprings, and the idea of putting them in mainstream TAG Heuer watches needed to be shelved. The Isograph name has seemingly been changed to Nanograph, and we see that TAG Heuer still likes to use the technology for higher-end watches where it can spend more money on the movement. Accordingly, both watches have what high quality fake TAG Heuer refers to as “Carbon Tourbillons,” which are essentially the Heuer 02-T automatic chronograph movement mechanism with an Isograph/Nanograph hairspring.
Both the best quality replica TAG Heuer Carrera Tourbillon Nanograph Plasma Diamant D’Avant Garde and the TAG Heuer Carrera Plasma Tourbillon Nanograph which came before it are incredible timepieces to behold. They aren’t exactly pretty in a traditional sense, but they are fun, spirited, and eye-catching. For me, the most shocking this is the price, especially given how many distinct parts of these watches were never meant to be price-toppers. The Nanograph technology, lab-grown diamonds, and the Heuer 02T movement are all things that are meant to deliver excellent value. No doubt these require huge amounts of time to make and develop, but I just wonder if Swiss movement fake TAG Heuer missed part of the story when trying to reconcile all of these concepts with the enthusiasts who have been following the brand’s developments over the last decade or so.
People like categorizing watches, but unfortunately these two wholesale replica TAG Heuer Carrera Tourbillon Nanograph Plasma watches are difficult to define or neatly put into any one category. These are certainly not traditional jewelry watches or those whose values are derived from precious materials or formal wearing value. These also aren’t sports replica watches for sale on account of the price point and material choices, despite the obvious sports watch profile and movement choice. Yet, despite the fiddly nature of how these watches fit into the scheme of modern horology, they are fun in a sort of irreverent, irresponsible way. It is also a bit funny that TAG Heuer super clone online cannot seem to put “diamond” in the name of the watches even though diamonds (natural or lab-grown – they are chemically the same) are clearly a bit part of the theme. Instead, they use the much more vague “plasma” term. Burning plasma is clearly part of the diamond formation creation process, but I am not sure the majority of consumers will make that connection. Perhaps watches like these are so rare that best quality replica TAG Heuer doesn’t care. Neither for instance, are found in TAG Heuer’s standard online product catalog.
