TAG Heuer has come to be known around these parts for its interesting collaboration pieces. In the past, we received a crypto-oriented Connected Calibre E4 smartwatch. This time, they have gone bigger and in a completely different direction. With the finance bros satisfied, it seems it is time to please the gearheads with the collaboration with Porsche on the same Connected Calibre E4 smartwatch, priced at $2,750 USD (₹2.19 lakh approx.)
Not only does the new TAG Heuer Connected Calibre E4 – Porsche Edition take inspiration from Porsche’s all-electric Taycan, but it also offers exclusive Wear OS features for drivers of compatible Porsche models. These perks include displaying useful instrumentation information such as the remaining battery charge, range and total mileage of your EV. Connecting to the car via the My Porsche app, lets you even control the temperature and atmosphere inside the car.
The Connected Porsche Edition will be the first brainchild of this partnership since its launch with the TAG Heuer x Porsche Carrera Chronograph last year. When it comes to design, the watch has accents in metallic Frozen Blue, staying on theme with the Taycan. It also offers an exclusive ‘Circuit’ watch face based on printed circuit boards and racing circuits combining the feeling of technology with speed.
The watch sports a 45mm sandblasted black titanium case with a polished black ceramic bezel and black steel crown, carrying a TAG Heuer shield in frozen blue lacquer. The buttons have been engineered to offer a mechanical feel when operated, while the watch comes with an interchangeable carbon-like black calf leather strap with a rubber base, designed to resemble the leather finishing found on the interiors of the Taycan.
