Pre-owned Carrera Jack Heuer 40th Anniversary watches cost roughly 3,000 USD. A perforated leather racing strap underscores this timepiece's roots in motorsport. The position of the crown is also different, having moved from the left-hand side at 9 o'clock to the right at 3. Unlike its historical predecessor, the Carrera Jack Heuer 40th Anniversary's case is round instead of oval.
There's also a date display at 6 o'clock. The ring around the dial's edge is the same shade of gray and features a tachymeter scale. It's predominately silver in color and has two gray subdials at 3 and 9 o'clock. The dial design takes its cues from the 1969 Carrera ref. Each case back also features an engraving of that watch's production number, from 1/1964 to 1964/1964. The 39-mm Carrera Jack Heuer 40th Anniversary has a stainless steel case with "Carrera 1964-2004, 40 years of legend" engraved on its satin-brushed case back. Even so, the Carrera Jack Heuer 40th Anniversary reference CV2117 is a highly coveted timepiece. Today, however, we know that the first Carrera watches had already seen the light of day the year before. Back then, many people still believed that the Carrera debuted in 1964. Limited to a run of 1,964 pieces, it celebrated 40 years since the release of the first Carrera. TAG Heuer presented a limited edition of the Carrera Calibre 17 at Baselworld 2005.
