The TAG Heuer Formula 1 Solargraph x Oracle Red Bull Racing (Ref. WBY111F.BA0042) is a 38mm solar-powered special edition celebrating 10 years of TAG Heuer's partnership with Red Bull's Formula 1 team. Finished in the team's blue, red and yellow, it was unveiled on October 12, 2026, the day after Max Verstappen won his first-ever Singapore Grand Prix. It retails for $2,250.
What is it? The TAG Heuer Formula 1 Solargraph x Oracle Red Bull Racing is the official 10th-anniversary watch of the TAG Heuer and Red Bull Racing partnership, which began in 2016. It takes the revived 38mm Formula 1, a modern take on the colorful 1986 Formula 1 Series 1, and dresses it in Red Bull Racing livery. The timing could not be better. TAG Heuer revealed the watch on October 12, 2026, one day after Max Verstappen won the Singapore Grand Prix under the lights at Marina Bay. It was a perfect weekend: Sprint pole, Sprint win, Grand Prix pole, and a lights-to-flag victory ahead of Charles Leclerc. It was Verstappen's first win in Singapore, the only track on the current calendar he had never won at, and it came on his 250th Grand Prix start. It was also his 73rd career win and his second in a row after Malaysia. Design: a blue sunray-brushed dial echoes the Red Bull car, framed by a red minute track and a yellow central seconds hand. The date window at 3 o'clock has a yellow frame. The bidirectional bezel is blue TH-Polylight with a white 60-minute scale. Applied indexes carry Super-LumiNova that glows green at night. The steel caseback is engraved with the Oracle Red Bull Racing and TAG Heuer logos over a checkered flag, and the watch ships in Red Bull Racing packaging. Movement: the Solargraph Calibre TH50-00 charges from natural or artificial light. One minute of direct sunlight powers a full day, a full charge runs up to 10 months in darkness, and 10 seconds of light restarts a stopped watch. No winding and no routine battery changes. When can you buy it? Online presale opens October 20, 2026, ahead of the Formula 1 United States Grand Prix in Austin on October 25. TAG Heuer and F1: TAG Heuer returned as Formula 1's Official Timekeeper in 2025 and has partnered with Oracle Red Bull Racing since 2016, a decade that includes all four of Verstappen's world championships.
A special edition, not a numbered limited edition; TAG Heuer has not published a production count. It costs a modest premium over the standard Formula 1 Solargraph, and the extra money buys the livery, engraved caseback and team packaging rather than any technical upgrade. Team editions tend to become harder to find once they leave boutiques, and this one has a strong story attached: the 10-year partnership anniversary and a launch the day after Verstappen's first Singapore win. Buy it to wear and enjoy, not as an investment piece.
