Elon Musk’s TAG Heuer Carrera Calibre 1887 Space X chronograph

Like Glenn’s timepiece, Musk’s own Carrera Calibre 1887 Space X chronograph has been to space, travelling aboard Space X’s Dragon spacecraft during a mission to the International Space Station. The Dragon was carrying 2,617 kilograms of cargo in the form of science experiments, crew supplies and hardware (and of course the Carrera Calibre 1887).The capsule returned to Earth with its precious cargo, still saran-wrapped, eventually making its way unto the wrist of Elon Musk.

Unlike most other billionaires, a timepiece for Musk is worn not for its prestige but real functional value. Famously, the engineering maverick uses a productivity technique known as “time blocking” to organise his 100 hour work week by sub-dividing his day into 5 minute blocks. Each task must be completed within the 5 minute time frame, hence, the TAG Heuer Carrera Calibre 1887 Space X chronograph with its 1/5 indexes is perfect for “blocking” Musk’s time and attention across anything from his $1 billion “Gigafactory” for terrestrial electric vehicles to his multi-billion dollar dreams of colonising Mars.
