Note du spécialiste

According to the Archives of Tag Heuer the present watch was made circa 1957.

The so called "pre-Carrera" model was available with or without the tachymeter scale, such as the present watch. The 30 minute register features a marking at 3, 6 and 9 minutes to indicates the time frames for the long distance phone calls.
