TAG Heuer is back with a robust and very orange Formula 1 Solograph just in time for the Dutch Grand Prix which will roll out on August 23rd at the  Zandvoort race track near the scenic Dutch North Sea Coast. And let us not forget that the House of Orange is the current reigning house of the Netherlands. Today the house brings out its limited edition TAG Heuer Formula 1 Solargraph. It’s bold with its eye-catching color combination of orange and steel. It’s delicate, too, with its 38 mm sandblasted steel case framing a grey opaline dial with red-orange details like the red-lacquered hands and indexes showcasing the eggshell Super-LumiNova® collar by day and green luminescence by night. 

Meanwhile the bi-directional TH-Polylight bezel and matching orange rubber strap reinforce the watch’s racing character. The Solargraph Calibre TH50-00 converts light into energy for reliable, low-maintenance precision. The timepiece has been brought out in a limited edition of just 1,500 pieces.  And there’s more. The watch’s Solargraph Calibre TH50-00 converts light into energy for reliable, low-maintenance precision. The watch is water-resistant to 330 feet (100 meters )and is outfitted with a sun-inspired orange rubber strap. 

Beginning with his groundbreaking collaboration with Ferrari in 1971, and later forging legendary alliances with McLaren (1986-2015), Jack Heuer’s influence helped redefine racing’s golden age. His leadership also brought TAG Heuer to the forefront as the Official Timekeeper of Formula 1 from 1992 to 2003. Tag Heuer returned to its longstanding role as the Official Timekeeper of Formula 1 in 2025, carrying on a legacy that includes over 230 Grand Prix wins, further embodying the words of founding family member Jack Heuer who famously said, « Time never stops, why should we? » https://www.tagheuer.com/int/en/
