In the 1990s, TAG Heuer revived its Carrera icon with a faithful reproduction of the classic 1964 model. With its three subdials and blue decimal minutes, it is still considered one of the most sought-after Heuer chronographs. The main difference was the Lemania 1873 calibre used, which was the base calibre of the Omega Speedmaster's calibre 1861. It replaced the long-out-of-production Valjoux 72 calibre.
