TAG Heuer is reintroducing the classic Formula 1 watch lineup, this time in a new Solargraph collection. The Maison announced the return of the OG timepieces at the Watches & Wonders Geneva 2025.
Starting as a limited edition in its revival last May, the Formula 1 timepiece is now back for good. The decision came as a result of continuous demand and consideration of its previous run in the market, wherein it sold the entire 1,350 pieces in a flash.
Moreover, TAG Heuer’s reintroduction of the iconic watches is part of the celebration of its rich heritage of precision, innovation, and all things motorsport.
Build, Design, and Aesthetic
This time, TAG Heuer honors the watches’ 1980s roots but improves them with modern elements, Zoe Leung of Hypebeast reports.
The Swiss luxury watchmaker unveils nine dynamic new references for the Formula 1 lineup. Three announced references are deep blue, black and white, and bold red while the other six are limited editions, says Oren Hartov of GQ.
More specifically, the three classic colorways comes with steel bracelets. On the other hand, the remaining six references feature vibrant color combinations. Furthermore, each watch has an option for an alternative bracelet. The selection includes a rubber racing strap, embossed rubber strap, or a redesigned steel bracelet.
With regards to it being a solargraph collection, the timepieces utilize TAG Heuer’s Calibre TH50-00 Solargraph movement. It is a quartz engine that completes a full-day charge through two minutes of sunlight. On top of that, the battery of the movement can last up to 15 years.
In addition, the collection features a 38mm case size with enhanced finishes for exceptional refinement and comfort. It also integrates the history of the Maison’s partnership with Formula 1, solidifying its place in the field.
The TAG Heuer reimagined 80s classic Formula 1 collection will be on sale throughout the Formula 1 season for roughly $2,000.
