Now we have 50 crores or 100 crores and stuff like that. Days and months of jubilees have gone, but Carrera has been there for fifty years,” he said.
Shah Rukh Khan went down memory lane and told the press about his first Tag Heuer watch.
“In my teenage years, I remember the hero wearing TAG watches in James Hadley Chase novels. Even though I couldn’t pronounce it, it was one of the few things I wanted to own. Then, in the 90s, I bought a TAG Heuer Link model while on a shoot in New York. It gave me sense of pride because I earned it, and even got a discount because the salesman was Indian.” stated a nostalgic Shah Rukh.
