Miles Teller’s TAG Heuer Carrera Is Built for Speed and Style
Miles Teller has a thing for watches that move as fast as the cars they’re inspired by. The Top Gun: Maverick star was recently spotted wearing the TAG Heuer Carrera Chronosprint x Porsche, a collaboration that merges automotive precision with modern luxury design - and, as GQ put it, “the brand’s most fun feature in years.”
The watch, co-engineered by TAG Heuer and Porsche, pays homage to both the 60th anniversary of the Carrera and 75 years of Porsche sports cars. It’s a statement piece for anyone who equates craftsmanship with horsepower.
The Watch
The Carrera Chronosprint x Porsche features a 42mm stainless-steel case, sapphire crystal dome, and a Calibre TH20-08 movement that mimics the acceleration of a Porsche 911 — literally.
When activated, the chronograph hand races from 0 to 100 km/h in 9.1 seconds, then decelerates — a mechanical tribute to the speed of the first 911. The detail is subtle, but the engineering behind it is pure adrenaline.
“TAG Heuer has always been about motorsport timing, but this is the first time that sense of motion is built into the movement itself,” said Frédéric Arnault, CEO of TAG Heuer.
The dial features a red 0-100 scale, Porsche-inspired typography, and a visible rotor shaped like a steering wheel. It’s available in steel and rose gold, both with calfskin straps embossed with the Porsche logo.
Why It Fits Teller Perfectly
Teller’s partnership with TAG Heuer goes back several years — he’s often seen wearing the brand’s Monaco and Carrera models during press tours and film events. But the Chronosprint x Porsche suits his personal aesthetic best: performance-driven, masculine, and unfussy.
The actor’s recent appearance wearing the watch at a charity event in Beverly Hills was caught by photographers, and collectors immediately noticed the red chronograph tip — a subtle nod to vintage racing tachometers.
“It’s not flashy, but it has presence,” said watch critic Jack Forster. “The kind of watch that says you know machines — and you like them fast.”
The Crossover Appeal
The Carrera x Porsche collaboration extends beyond watch circles. With car-branded timepieces often leaning gimmicky, this edition strikes the balance between design integrity and storytelling.
Collectors praise the in-house chronograph movement and 911-inspired mechanics, noting that the watch appeals equally to gearheads and purists.
Its retail price starts around $9,200, positioning it below ultra-luxury tiers but firmly within collectible range — especially for a limited release that celebrates two heritage milestones.
The Takeaway
Miles Teller’s Carrera Chronosprint x Porsche is more than an accessory — it’s a conversation between two icons of engineering. Fast, mechanical, and unapologetically precise, it proves TAG Heuer still knows how to turn motion into art.
And for men who love the feel of a roaring engine or the click of a crown, it’s a perfect reminder: performance never goes out of style.
