Description

TAG Heuer Carrera Leather Watch Strap 22-18/80-100 in Dark Brown Alligator

Overview

TAG Heuer is a Swiss luxury watchmaker founded in 1860, known for its precision chronographs and sports watches. The Carrera line, introduced in 1963, was named after the Carrera Panamericana race and designed for legibility and durability. This strap is an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) leather strap designed for Carrera models with 22 mm lug widths.

The strap is crafted from genuine alligator skin in dark brown, paired with brown stitching for contrast. The strap is graded Excellent in our Condition Grading Scale below, NOS with no visible wear.

This is a two-piece strap without a buckle, measuring 22 mm at the lugs and tapering to 18 mm at the buckle end. The short piece is 80 mm, and the long piece is 100 mm, with a thickness of 3 mm at the buckle end. The strap is marked with the TAG Heuer logo, confirming its authenticity as an OEM part. The item is sold as-is, with no additional parts included beyond what is described and photographed.

Specifications

Original TAG Heuer OEM leather strap for Carrera models. Material is genuine alligator skin in dark brown, with brown contrast stitching.

Dimensions are 22 mm at the watch lugs and 18 mm at the buckle end. The short piece measures 80 mm from the lug to the first hole, and the long piece measures 100 mm from the lug to the buckle end. Thickness at the buckle end is 3 mm. The strap is designed to fit wrists with a circumference of approximately 160–200 mm, depending on buckle placement.

The strap bears the following marking in embossed lettering: TAG Heuer. No date codes, serial numbers, or additional engravings are present. The strap is cut for a straight-end/slightly curved design, compatible with standard spring bars (not included).

Color is dark brown, with a semi-gloss finish from the alligator skin’s natural texture. The stitching is brown, using a locked stitch pattern for durability. The edges are finished with a slight bevel and polished to prevent fraying.

Compatibility

Designed for TAG Heuer Carrera models with 22 mm lug widths. Compatible with the following references (non-exhaustive list):

Carrera Calibre 16 (e.g., CV201x, WAR2x), Carrera Calibre 1887 (e.g., CV211x, CAR2x), and Carrera Heuer-01/02 (e.g., CAR5x, CAR2x). Also fits vintage Carrera references from the 1960s–1990s with 22 mm lugs, such as the 2447, 1153, and 1158. Not compatible with Carrera models using integrated bracelets (e.g., Carrera Porsche or Carrera Mikrograph).

For non-TAG Heuer watches, compatibility depends solely on the 22 mm lug width and straight-end spring bar design. The strap does not include a buckle, so the original or an aftermarket 18 mm deployant clasp buckle is required for installation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this strap compatible with my Carrera Calibre Heuer 01?

Yes, this strap fits all Carrera Calibre Heuer 01 references with 22 mm lug widths, including the CAR5A series. Verify your lug width before purchase, as some special editions may differ.

What is the difference between alligator and calf leather straps from TAG Heuer?

Alligator straps, like this one, use ventral scales for a softer, more durable finish with a distinctive texture. Calf leather is smoother and typically less expensive but may wear faster. TAG Heuer OEM alligator straps are reserved for higher-end Carrera models.

Does this strap include a buckle?

No, the strap is sold without a buckle. You will need an 18 mm TAG Heuer signed deployant clasp buckle or a compatible aftermarket option for installation.

How do I determine if this strap will fit my wrist?

The short piece (80 mm) and long piece (100 mm) accommodate wrist circumferences of approximately 160–200 mm. Measure your wrist and compare to the strap’s total usable length (180 mm).

Is this strap suitable for vintage Carrera models?

Yes, it fits vintage Carrera references with 22 mm lugs, such as the 2447 (1960s) or 1153 (1970s). However, vintage models may require slight adjustments to the spring bars for a secure fit.
