This limited-edition TAG Heuer Formula 1 chronograph is ready to take pole position in the collection.
Antoine Pin, CEO of TAG Heuer, said “This year concludes with the incredible celebration of the 20th season of Red Bull Racing in Formula One. For us, it felt like the perfect moment to create a special watch that represents everything Oracle Red Bull Racing can be proud of, from the outstanding championship victories and the triumphant racing successes with Max Verstappen and Sergio Pérez.”
“To mark 20 years of passion, precision, and pushing the limits, this timepiece made with TAG Heuer perfectly embodies the spirit of Oracle Red Bull Racing. It represents the incredible journey we’ve worked so hard on, capturing every element of what makes our Team relentless on and off the track.” Said Christian Horner, CEO & Team Principal of Oracle Red Bull Racing.
After the release of seven timepieces in collaboration with the Team since the beginning of the partnership in 2016, it was the perfect moment to reveal a new watch that celebrates such significant achievements. The TAG Heuer Formula 1 Chronograph x Oracle Red Bull Racing is set to captivate the hearts of watch aficionados and fans of the TAG Heuer x Oracle Red Bull Racing universe. With its cutting-edge technology and sleek design, the timepiece is all about paying tribute to the Team’s racing spirit, from the roar of the engines to the thrill of crossing the finish line. Every element of the TAG Heuer Formula 1 Chronograph x Oracle Red Bull Racing watch is infused with the energy and excitement of the track.
TAG Heuer introduces a bold new look through a black DLC-coated case. It is paired with an asphalt-textured dial in the Oracle Red Bull Racing blue, bringing the racetrack to life on the wrist. The Oracle Red Bull Racing’s logo appears between 7 and 10 o’clock – another first in this collaboration between the two partners.
Continuing the racing-inspired theme, the 6 o’clock subdial is a direct tribute to the high-performance speedometers of racing cars, complete with high- contrast markers that evoke the start line of a race. This is accompanied by a red lacquer on the 2 o’clock pusher, which represents the partnership’s signature touch.
Inspired by the iconic Oracle Red Bull Racing livery, the watch features a high-contrast mix of dark blue, yellow, and the unmistakable red. The vivid and bold colors make this chronograph stand out, ensuring that it is as eye-catching and striking as it is functional.
The bezel, crafted from steel with an aluminum insert, adds another layer of sportiness to the design. Its construction allows for a variety of color combinations, all of which are inspired by Oracle Red Bull Racing’s dynamic livery. It is a subtle nod to the Team’s constant pursuit of excellence, ensuring that the timepiece is versatile and stylish.
The caseback continues the celebration of Oracle Red Bull Racing. Engraved with the 20th season and Team logos, it serves as a reminder of the incredible journey of Oracle Red Bull Racing over the past two decades. It is a perfect engraved reminder of all the victories and milestones that have defined the partnership between Oracle Red Bull Racing and TAG Heuer.
Limited to just 3’000 pieces – a limitation engraved on the caseback: “ONE OF 3000” – the watch comes with a blue rubber strap, meticulously designed for comfort, style, and performance.
Featuring the 20th season logo and the vibrant colors of Oracle Red Bull Racing, the packaging is as bold and dynamic as the timepiece itself.
Aligning with the anniversary of Oracle Red Bull Racing, TAG Heuer also congratulates Max Verstappen, who won the 2024 Formula 1 World Drivers’ Championship with an extraordinary season, for the fourth year in a row. Verstappen’s dominance on the track, securing 9 victories, totaling 429 points so far this season, represents the unstoppable quest of excellence and precision shared by both the Team and TAG Heuer. Verstappen’s incredible success reflects the same cutting-edge innovation and commitment to pushing limits that shine through the TAG Heuer Formula 1 Chronograph x Oracle Red Bull
This limited-edition TAG Heuer Formula 1 Chronograph x Oracle Red Bull Racing stands as a fitting tribute to two decades of success and innovation and an incredible victory, powered by the relentless quest to push the limits.
