Ten Years, 38 mm: TAG Heuer Dresses the Grid in Red Bull Blue

A decade after joining forces with Oracle Red Bull Racing, TAG Heuer marks the anniversary with a 38 mm Formula 1 Solargraph in the team’s deep blue, crossed by a vivid red minuterie and powered entirely by light.

Some partnerships are measured in seasons; this one is measured in fractions of a second. Since 2016, the Swiss Maison and the Formula One team have shared podiums, titles and a conviction that every detail on the grid counts. The new TAG Heuer Formula 1 Solargraph x Oracle Red Bull Racing gathers those ten years into a compact sports watch, and gives the anniversary a form that is easy to wear every day.

TAG Heuer, 1860-2026: Eleven Milestones

Ten Years on the Grid Together

Over the past decade, the alliance has produced a series of timepieces that followed the team’s progress on track, from its breakthrough victories to its championship seasons. Each release captured a moment of that story. The anniversary edition continues the line, and it arrives within a collection whose roots go back to 1986, when the TAG Heuer Formula 1 introduced a new generation to Swiss watchmaking through bold design and a direct bond with motorsport.

“Ten years ago, TAG Heuer and Oracle Red Bull Racing came together around a simple conviction: every fraction of a second matters,” says Béatrice Goasglas, CEO of TAG Heuer. “With its 38 mm case and Solargraph movement, it brings the energy of the grid to a new generation of watch enthusiasts, for whom racing is as much a culture as a sport.”

For Laurent Mekies, CEO and Team Principal of Oracle Red Bull Racing, the watch reflects “the speed, accuracy and relentless pursuit of excellence that connect both our brands”. The Maison’s presence in motorsport continues to widen, as its recent title partnership of the 2027 British Grand Prix at Silverstone shows.

A Dial in Team Colours

The dial makes its statement at first glance. A blue sunray-brushed surface takes up the signature colour of Oracle Red Bull Racing, and a red flange carrying the 60-second scale runs around it in sharp contrast. Applied indexes in black lacquer, filled with white Super LumiNova® that glows green at night, keep the reading clear in every light. The shields at six, nine and twelve o’clock give the dial the structured rhythm that identifies the Formula 1 family.

The original Formula 1 hour hand, a defining element of the collection, and its minute hand are polished and black-lacquered with luminescent filling, while a yellow lacquered central hand adds a touch of the pit lane. A date at three o’clock, framed in yellow, completes the composition, and the TAG Heuer logo appears in its green, red and white livery.

Case, Bezel and Bracelet

The 38 mm case is in sandblasted steel, whose matte finish underlines the technical character of the piece. Its lines draw on the original TAG Heuer Formula 1 models, with a balance of structured surfaces and softer contours. The bidirectional TH-Polylight bezel carries a blue 60-second scale and gives the watch its distinctive outline. A flat sapphire crystal with anti-reflective treatment protects the dial, and the case is water-resistant to 100 metres.

A three-row bracelet in sandblasted steel follows the wrist with a finely articulated construction, secured by a folding clasp with double safety push-buttons and an extension link. It suits the paddock as well as an evening in Dubai or Riyadh.

The partnership is signed on the screw-down case back, where the Oracle Red Bull Racing logo sits alongside the TAG Heuer shield over a checkered flag pattern. The watch is delivered in a special box dressed in the team’s colours and bearing its logo.

Powered by Light, Available from October

Inside beats the Solargraph calibre TH50-00, which draws its energy from both natural and artificial light. One minute of direct sunlight powers the watch for a full day. A complete charge, reached in under 40 hours of exposure, gives up to ten months of autonomy in total darkness, and ten seconds of light are enough to set the watch running again after a long rest. The accumulator offers a lifespan of up to fifteen years. Enthusiasts will recognise the 38 mm Solargraph format already seen on the Zandvoort Final-Lap Editions, here in a livery that belongs to the team.
