The TAG Heuer Carrera Porsche Chronograph
They both share one of the biggest names in racing history, Carrera (which literally means ‘race’ in Italian), when their friendship blossomed on the thrilling race tracks of Le Mans, but theirs is a partnership that goes beyond sports, since both Swiss luxury watchmaker TAG Heuer and German sportscar major Porsche were founded by self-taught visionaries with an independent mindset, who strove to create the ultimate machines of precision and quality. With an interlocking history – from technical firsts and Le Mans races to actor Steve McQueen, to the TAG turbo engine, and three world titles in Formula 1 – the megabrands TAG Heuer and Porsche have both made the most of their rich histories and cutting-edge technologies to deliver world firsts and the best of the best.

The Beginning of Something New and Bold
These two brands have announced their new partnership: an alliance between two brands whose shared DNA in motorsports and racing forges a long-term collaboration – from competition to product development. A new watch, the TAG Heuer Carrera Porsche Chronograph, has just been unveiled as the first celebration of these iconic brands, and proudly wearing it behind the wheel of the Porsche Carrera, is Hollywood actor Patrick Dempsey. Since their founding days, both brands have both shared maverick spirits, a streak of invention, and challenges aplenty.
Lifestyle Insider is a kind of junction point, connecting people with diverse interests that touch on the more luxurious aspects of lifestyle – fashion, design, travel, food and spirits, art, watches and jewellery, cars, yachts, and aviation, and technology. People today don’t fit into boxes and categories. In our individual ways, we are interested in diverse themes, products, and the challenges that face our world today. You will judge how well this effort of mine caters to your passions and proclivities.
Lifestyle Insider is a showcase of all that is beautiful and luxe. Behind every creation, is a designer, chef, entrepreneur, or a design maison. I have delved into my own appreciation for objetsde luxe that I have admired over the years – be it a love of fashion from the world’s top Parisian and Italian fashion maisons and their ’90s muses, or the care that goes into sari and Indian textile collections in my own family. Growing up on four continents, as the daughter of a former Indian Ambassador, I’ve seen a remarkable array of historic places and met a myriad people. My aim is to bring my world view into this website, a curation of what I find particularly stunning, unique, and newsworthy.
It’s an exciting time for brands all over the world. With change comes opportunity. With the global ‘reset’ and uncertainty on many fronts, there is a chance to write a new script. Let’s be those pioneers.
