RACING IN PASTELS

BUILDING ON A HERITAGE SHAPED BY COLOR, SPEED, AND VIBRANCING, TAG HEUER PRESENTS THE PASTEL COLLECTION OF THE TAG HEUER FORMULA 1 38MM SOLARGRAPH

La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland – April 21st, 2026: Swiss luxury watchmaker TAG Heuer continues its high velocity journey at the heart of motorsport with the introduction of a fresh new TAG Heuer Formula 1 38mm Solargraph pastel collection. Born from a legacy deeply intertwined with racing culture since 1986, the collection evolves once more, capturing the exhilaration, optimism, and expressive energy that define both the sport and a new generation of enthusiasts.

Since its debut in 1986, the TAG Heuer Formula 1 has been a symbol of individuality and performance. It was the first watch to carry the TAG Heuer name and introduced bold color, daring design, and innovative composite cases reflecting the dynamism of the late twentieth century. These timepieces became statements of identity, worn by those drawn to speed, competition, and self-expression. The collection quickly became inseparable from the world of Formula 1, a sport where precision and emotion coexist at breathtaking intensity.

Through the decades, the TAG Heuer Formula 1 continuously adapted, mirroring shifts in design, technology, and cultural sensibilities. In 2025, the introduction of the TAG Heuer Solargraph movement marked another decisive chapter, as it was the first time this TAG Heuer movement got included into the TAG Heuer Formula 1 collection. Harnessing light as an energy source, the technology embodied the forward-thinking innovation that has always driven TAG Heuer. The refined 38mm silhouette striked a thoughtful balance between heritage-inspired proportions and contemporary wearability.

Today, TAG Heuer continues this journey with a radiant reinterpretation inspired by its own history. This latest evolution builds on a story that has shaped contemporary watch culture and continues with a fresh visual language that radiates confidence and vitality.

A Fresh Expression of Racing Energy

The new pastel series express a softer yet deeply confident vision of the TAG Heuer Formula 1 identity.

These timepieces reinterpret the iconic design codes through soft pastel tones drawn from the collection’s colorful heritage, reimagined with a fresh contemporary sensibility that evokes optimism, clarity, and vibrant self-expression.

The TAG Heuer Formula 1 38mm Solargraph with beige opalin dial, limited to 3’500 timepieces, radiates understated warmth.

The result is a presence that feels serene and unmistakably assertive.

The TAG Heuer Formula 1 38mm Solargraph with pastel blue opalin dial, limited to 3’000 timepieces, embodies freshness and clarity. Its cool tonality evokes open horizons and fluid movement, reflecting the spirit of speed through an unexpectedly refined lens.

Crafted in TH Polylight, the cases offer remarkable lightness and tactile comfort while amplifying chromatic intensity. The iconic bidirectional bezel, Mercedes hour hand, and signature shields remain, anchoring each model firmly within the TAG Heuer Formula 1 lineage.

Powered by the Solargraph movement, the watches harness both natural and artificial light as a virtually unlimited energy source. A two-minute exposure to direct sunlight is enough to power the watch for an entire day, while a full charge, reached in under 40 hours of light exposure, delivers up to ten months of autonomy in total darkness. Even after stopping, the watch restarts with just ten seconds of light exposure, and its accumulator offers an impressive lifespan of up to fifteen years, ensuring enduring reliability.

Refined Modernity

TAG Heuer expands the TAG Heuer Formula 1 Solargraph universe with two refined interpretations that blend sporty dynamism and luxurious detail. The 38mm pastel green and lavender-blue editions are distinguished by the subtle brilliance of diamond-set indexes, offering a touch of refinement for those seeking sophistication. The TAG Heuer Formula 1 38mm Solargraph pastel green model pairs contemporary color with sparkling luminosity, while the TAG Heuer Formula 1 38mm Solargraph  lavender blue version, accented with pastel pink minuterie, creates a sophisticated contrast where the diamond-set indexes catch the light and enhance depth, with the pastel green edition limited to 1,500 pieces and the lavender blue to 1,000.

Encased in sand blasted steel and complemented by a three-row steel bracelet, these timepieces convey a heightened sense of elegance while preserving the unmistakable energy and presence of TAG Heuer Formula 1.

An Invitation to the TAG Heuer Formula 1 Dream

The new TAG Heuer Formula 1 38mm Solargraph pastel series continue to redefine the TAG Heuer Formula 1 universe and become an emotional gateway into the world of racing, where performance meets self-expression, and heritage meets contemporary personality.

In every reflection of light, in every soft hue, the collection celebrates a simple yet powerful essence.

Racing is a feeling, a pulse, a state of mind, living beyond the track.
