Swiss watch maker Tag Heuer have released a new watch, the MP4-12C is inspired by the McLaren MP4-12C road supercar.

The dial has a carbon-fibre style pattern with a large central window, which allows you to see the Chronograph and date functions at work.

The layout is dominated by a large Orange zero at the 12 o’clock position in a nod to the speedometer design of the road car (Orange is McLaren’s traditional colour).

The case is 43mm and made of sandblasted titanium grade 2- the same material used by TAG Heuer in the Carrera Day-Date Titanium watch. The crown has a textured rubber finish and features the McLaren logo.

The watch uses the automatic Dubois Depraz Calibre 4900 Chronograph movement which includes forty seven jewels and a dinstinct semi-perpetual-calendar function with a large date.

The Carrera MP4-12C is limited to only one thousand pieces and will be available only at McLaren showrooms and on www.mclaren.com. Calibre11
