The Formula 1 – the gateway to the world of TAG Heuer since 1986
The TAG Heuer Formula 1 was the first collection of the newly formed company in 1986 and remains closely tied to motorsport to this day. Coloured bezels, robust cases and a clearly legible dial have defined the series since its very first generation. The Solargraph models take up the design of the original Series 1 and translate it into a modern language of materials – with vibrant colours and a case diameter of 38 millimetres that suits women and men equally well.
The Calibre TH50-00 in detail
The Solargraph Calibre TH50-00 was developed together with the Swiss manufacture La Joux-Perret. Beneath the dial sits a translucent solar cell that draws on any light source – daylight as well as indoor lighting. If the watch has been left in the dark for a long time, around ten seconds of light are enough to set it running again. The energy storage is designed for a service life of up to 15 years. For the wearer, this means: No battery changes, no service appointments to schedule and the accuracy of a quartz movement instead.
Design and craftsmanship
Depending on the reference, the Formula 1 Solargraph combines a stainless steel case with a steel bracelet or a TH-Polylight case with a rubber strap. The bidirectional rotating bezel stays true to the functional character of the collection, while the shield-shaped markers at the quarter hours are a hallmark of the current generation. Selected models feature diamonds set on the dial, shifting the sporty watch towards a piece of jewellery without losing its character.
