Inspired by one of Nintendo’s most iconic series, the Mario Kart Automatic Chronograph and Chronograph Tourbillon both contain features that stay true to the classic Tag Heuer Formula 1 watch while also adding playful touches only a Mario-themed watch can bring.
The TAG Heuer Formula 1 x Mario Kart Chronograph has a 44mm case, and acts as a canvas for the black-and-anthracite checkered racing pattern on the dial, with Mario himself on his kart featuring on the 9 o’clock subdial. Meanwhile, the date window at the 3 o’clock of the watch will regularly cycle through images of classic Mario Kart items fans use in the game.
Mario just doesn’t appear on the dial, as his ‘M’ symbol is prominently etched onto the crown of the watch, which is also circled with red lacquer. A Calibre 16 movement which contains a power reserve of 42 hours keeps the watch going, while the Mario Kart logo is engraved on the case back. Finally, a black calf leather strap with contrasting red stitching and shell pattern keeps the watch together.
For those looking for a more exclusive and Haute Horlogerie timepiece, look no further than the 45mm TAG Heuer Formula 1 x Mario Kart Chronograph Tourbillon. Limited to just 250 pieces, this powerhouse of a watch features a ceramic bezel with the Mario Kart logo in white Super-LumiNova(r) and a modified tourbillon cage with Mario in his kart, Bullet Bill and Spiny Shell all moving together in a smooth clockwise direction. Red highlights adorn the dial of the watch, creating an eye-catching and strong contrast to the deep black dial.
The TAG Heuer Formula 1 x Mario Kart Chronograph Tourbillon is kept together with the same black calf leather strap featured on its smaller cousin, while the folding titanium buckle is also customized with Mario’s ‘M’ logo. In terms of its in-house movement, the Chronograph Tourbillon has a 65-hour power reserve and a sapphire Titanium grade 5 caseback.
