TAG Heuer’s relationship with Oracle Red Bull Racing has always made sense because both brands live comfortably in the overlap between timing, speed and spectacle.
For the partnership’s 10th anniversary in 2026, the watchmaker has introduced the Formula 1 Solargraph x Oracle Red Bull Racing, a 38mm steel model that brings the team’s colours into one of TAG Heuer’s most accessible racing lines.
It also lands with useful timing, arriving shortly after a dominant Singapore Grand Prix victory for Max Verstappen and Red Bull.
At a glance
- TAG Heuer has launched a Formula 1 Solargraph x Oracle Red Bull Racing edition for the partnership’s 10th anniversary.
- The 38mm stainless steel watch uses a blue sunray dial, red minute scale and yellow accents inspired by the Red Bull Racing palette.
- It’s powered by the light-charged TAG Heuer TH50-00 Solargraph movement and is priced at £1,900.
Red Bull colours on a compact Formula 1 case
The watch follows the modern Formula 1 Solargraph template, with a 38mm stainless steel case and a sandblasted finish that gives the shape a more technical feel.
Its most recognisable detail is the case architecture around 12 and 6 o’clock, where the shoulders curve over the hidden lugs and create a near-integrated bracelet profile.
The Oracle Red Bull Racing identity comes through most clearly on the dial and bezel.
A rich blue base sets the tone, while the red flange and 60-second scale sharpen the layout without making the watch feel overworked.
The yellow central seconds hand and yellow date window border add the final team-colour accent, echoing the bull-and-sun logo without turning the dial into a literal piece of team merchandise.
TAG Heuer has kept the Formula 1’s rounded hour markers and bold hands, so the watch still reads as part of the core collection rather than a completely separate novelty piece.
Light-powered practicality beneath the dial
Inside is TAG Heuer’s calibre TH50-00, a Solargraph movement that uses a quartz regulator powered by light.
Light passes through the translucent dial to charge the movement’s solar cells, giving the watch a practical everyday character that suits the Formula 1 line.
On a full charge, the movement can run for up to 10 months, and after stopping it can restart after 10 seconds of light exposure.
That makes it a low-maintenance option for buyers who want a motorsport-linked TAG Heuer without the routine demands of a mechanical watch.
The solid steel caseback carries a special edition motif celebrating the shared history between TAG Heuer and Oracle Red Bull Racing.
Anniversary positioning and price
TAG Heuer and Oracle Red Bull Racing began their partnership in 2016, making this edition a neatly timed marker of a decade together.
The watch also continues TAG Heuer’s recent run of colourful Formula 1 racing editions, including the orange model connected to the Dutch Grand Prix.
At £1,900, the Oracle Red Bull Racing Solargraph sits at the same price level as the earlier steel-bracelet racing editions.
It’s presented in a special edition display box, adding a collector-facing detail without pushing the watch into precious or impractical territory.
