TAG Heuer reports the blue dial on leather arrives in October 2026.

Why Road & Motor selected it
Launched at the 2026 Spanish Grand Prix, the new Carrera Chronograph Sport is a proper rethink: 42 mm case, slimmer 14.17 mm profile, applied Arabic numerals and the in-house Calibre TH20-00 with an 80-hour power reserve. The blue sunray dial on perforated leather, cut like a vintage racing glove, is the racing chronograph of the moment. Note: the blue-on-leather configuration arrives in October 2026.
