Tag Heuer Indy 500 Formula 1 Solargraph limited edition marks the Indianapolis 500’s 110th anniversary and will be produced in a run of 1,110 pieces, the company said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"TAG<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The new Formula 1 Solargraph x Indy 500 continues the line’s recent focus on a 38 mm stainless steel<\/strong> case and three-row steel bracelet, proportions the brand says are balanced for both men and women. TAG Heuer kept the profile clean and sporty, trading the series’ usual bright colors for a more subdued black and brown palette that echoes race machinery and asphalt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tag Heuer Indy 500 styling details<\/h2>\n\n\n

The bezel uses a black TH-Polylight bidirectional rotating insert with a brown 60-minute scale, a motif TAG Heuer said is inspired by the flywheel graphic in the Indy 500 emblem. The dial shows a black opaline texture with an outer brown minute track to add depth, and a central red seconds hand designed to read like a final sprint across the finish line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"TAG<\/figure>\n\n\n

Branding, legibility, and lume<\/h2>\n\n\n

The Indy 500 logo appears at the six o’clock position to underline the collaboration, while the 12 o’clock, six o’clock, and nine o’clock markers retain the Formula 1 shield shape familiar to the collection. TAG Heuer equipped the watch with Mercedes-style hands, a date window, and Super-LumiNova on all hands and markers so the time remains clear in low light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to TAG Heuer, those visual cues preserve the Formula 1 family identity while signaling the Indy 500 tie-in for racing fans and collectors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"TAG<\/figure>\n\n\n

Solargraph movement and performance<\/h2>\n\n\n

The watch runs TAG Heuer’s TH50-00 solar-powered movement, a key feature of the Formula 1 Solargraph line. The company says just one minute of direct sunlight provides about 24 hours of power, and a full charge sustains operation for up to 10 months in complete darkness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

TAG Heuer noted that the solar system reduces battery changes and routine service, and that the movement restarts after long idle periods with only a short exposure to light.<\/p>\n\n\n

Water resistance, caseback, limited run, and price<\/h2>\n\n\n

The watch has an anti-reflective sapphire crystal and is rated to 100 meters of water resistance, the brand said. The screw-down caseback is engraved with the Indy 500 logo and a checkered-flag motif to reinforce the race connection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Limited to 1,110 pieces<\/strong>, the Formula 1 Solargraph x Indy 500 will be offered globally as a collectible for motorsport enthusiasts. The model number is WBY111G.BA0042.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Price: approximately $2,233<\/strong> (originally HK$17,500 \/ reference rate 1 HKD = 0.1276 USD), TAG Heuer said in its announcement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

TAG Heuer positions the Formula 1 Solargraph x Indy 500 as a sport-minded, technically focused timepiece that celebrates the Indianapolis 500’s 110th anniversary and offers a low-maintenance, solar-powered alternative for collectors.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
