TAG Heuer Unveils Its New Formula 1 Chronograph Collection



TAG Heuer, the Swiss luxury watchmaker, has recently announced the return of its iconic Formula 1 Chronograph Collection at the LVMH Watch Week 2025. This new collection features five stunning chronographs, including a special edition in collaboration with Oracle Red Bull Racing. The collection is set to be available from April 2025, with prices starting at CHF 4,600 (5075 USD) and the special edition priced at CHF 5,300 (5847 USD).
The original TAG Heuer Formula 1 collection was launched in the mid-1980s, during the golden era of Formula 1 racing, and quickly became a favorite among motorsport enthusiasts. The collection was discontinued in 2000, but its legacy lived on as a cult favorite among collectors. Now, more than two decades later, TAG Heuer has revived the Formula 1 collection, bringing back the spirit of racing to the wrist.
The new Formula 1 Chronograph Collection features a range of designs inspired by the world of Formula 1 racing. Each watch in the collection boasts a 44mm titanium case, which is both lightweight and durable. The case design is sharper and more aerodynamic, evoking the shape of an F1 racecar. Subtle details, such as micro-perforations on the bezel and indices resembling the front of F1 vehicles, pay homage to the precision engineering of professional motorsport.
One of the highlights of the new collection is the special edition Formula 1 Chronograph in collaboration with Oracle Red Bull Racing. This model features a Grade 2 titanium case with a checkered flag pattern, a dark blue opaline dial, and a tachymeter bezel with a forged carbon insert. The watch is designed to capture the essence of the high-speed world of Formula 1 racing.
All watches in the new Formula 1 Chronograph Collection are powered by TAG Heuer's Calibre 16 automatic movement, known for its precision and reliability. The collection includes functional features such as a tachymeter scale, subdials, and a compact date window, making these timepieces perfect for both everyday wear and racing enthusiasts.
The new Formula 1 Chronograph Collection will be available from April 2025. Each watch is designed to offer stellar timekeeping and functional design, reflecting the brand's commitment to excellence in horology and motorsport.
The return of the TAG Heuer Formula 1 Chronograph Collection marks a significant moment for both the watchmaking and motorsport worlds. With its blend of innovative design, high-performance movement, and racing heritage, this collection is set to captivate watch enthusiasts and racing fans alike. Whether you're a seasoned collector or a newcomer to the world of luxury watches, the new Formula 1 Chronographs are sure to make a bold statement on your wrist.
