Tag Heuer Automatic Chronograph Series Carrera watch Questions & Answers
How do I wind up
Wow, how wrong yall are.
There are three positions for the Carrera's push-down crown. The inner position is used for normal wear and winding. To wind the crown manually, simply rotate it clockwise.
Changing the date on the Carrera is done from the middle crown position. Turn the crown clockwise to advance the date, one day at a time. Push the crown back to the inner position when finished.
The outer crown position is used for setting the time. You can turn the crown in this position either clockwise or counter-clockwise. Adjust the time forward or backwards. Setting the time backwards will not damage the watch. When the time is correct, press the crown all the way into the inner position.

My problem is all of a sudden I have to wind up my
your watch might have to be serviced. If you are manually winding your watch thats not good at all because it puts unnecessary rapid stress on the sensitive auto reverser wheels possibly
damaging the tiny internal clicks. The torque pressure resulting from
manual winding of automatic watches is not made for, day-in day-out,
manual winding, especially if the watch is not in a pristine new or
overhauled condition. It is better to buy a watch winder to keep your watch running.
You should get it looked at by a watch maker who is very qualified or send it to Tag Heuer to get serviced they will give you a quote on how much it will cost before repairing watch so you may decide if you want to go through with it or not.
Sometimes its simple things such as needing lubrication or cleaning. An automatic watch should be serviced every 5 years anyways. So best advice is to get it checked by a well trained professional. My watch guy is great and really cheap . I would ask around make sure you are dealing with a master watch maker though.

Tag Heuer Carrera CV2A10 date display changes at 3AM??
Unfortunately, there is not much you can do with this, as for fixing it you need very experienced watch repairers help. All I can do is just name all possible reasons why it happened. FIRST reason could be: the day wheel somehow has lifted and not sitting in correct position. This would be the easiest fault for watchmaker to repair, as only dismantling the movement, correcting the day wheel and re-assembling will be necessary, so, no serious repairs needed. SECOND reason can be: the star, which is friction fitted to the day wheel is getting loose. In this case, if watchmaker will not be able to fix the day wheel, you will have to buy new day wheel + all work previously explained. THIRD reason: the day wheel click spring is weak/bent/broke. In this case you have to buy new day wheel click spring + again all the work previously explained. FOURTH and last reason: day wheel positioning screws/borders became loose. In this case only the work explained in FIRST reason will be necessary. If you are so lucky and still have warranty for your watch - send it back to Tag Heuer and they will do repairs without charge, because this fault is covered by warranty. If warranty has expired, you do not need to find any particular Tag Heuer watch repair shop. As all watch movements are manufactured on identical basic principles, any reputable/decent watchmaker will do the job for you. Prepare yourself to pay quite a lot, because Tags are expensive to deal with and takes a lot of time and skill to fix. This is all help I can give. Wish you luck. Rate me, please, and/or write some testimonial if you have spare minute.

They claim to be helpful, so you may get all the information you need.
