Both Zenith and TAG Heuer belong to the luxury conglomerate Moët Hennessy – Louis Vuitton SE (LVMH). TAG Heuer bases their movement on the Zenith El Primero. This movement ticks at 36,000 alternations per hour (A/h), equal to 5 Hz, which is 7,200 A/h more than the balance frequency of most mechanical timepieces. The Calibre 36 gets its name from its balance frequency. Most chronographs, including the Carrera Calibre 16, require the timer to stop before it can be reset. The flyback function means you can reset the timer at any time simply by pressing the push-piece at 4 o'clock. Thanks to its movement, it can accurately measure periods of time to within 1/10th of a second. This luxury watch is among the top Carrera models.
