Carrera Chronograph Seafarer 42mm
CBS2016.EB0430
How it wears
Wears true to its 42 mm case size
TAG Heuer Carrera Chronograph Seafarer 42mm measures 48.6 mm lug-to-lug on a 42 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 1.16 against a database median of 1.18. That span is longer than 72% of the 7,421 watches in this database and longer than 81% of the 116 TAG Heuer watches listed.
A flat wrist width of 54 mm (2.13 in) or more keeps it in the balanced range, and from 65 mm (2.56 in) it starts to look compact. Below 48.6 mm (1.91 in) the lugs are likely to overhang the wrist. Flat wrist width is measured straight across the top of the wrist, not around it.
At 14.4 mm thick it is on the thicker side, thicker than 86% of the watches with a listed thickness.
