A Date With Carrera

THE YEAR 2023 IS A HISTORIC MILESTONE for the Carrera as TAG Heuer marks the timepiece's 60th anniversary. To celebrate the occasion, they've recently released a short film starring Ryan Gosling and Vanessa Bayer (known for her work in Saturday Night Live and her recurring role in season seven of Brooklyn Nine-Nine).

The short film is a fun ride, full of action-comedy hallmarks, meta humour, sight gags and that trademark Gosling charisma. In it, Gosling is performing an action scene for a TAG Heuer Carrera ad directed by David Leitch of Deadpool and John Wick 2 fame (therein lies the source for a lot of the meta humour) but is reluctant to part with the watch used for the shoot the new TAG Heuer Carrera Date in a gorgeous pink dial. This, of course, angers the prop master, played by Bayer, and shenanigans ensue.
