TAG Heuer Formula 1 Chronograph Steel & Black 43mm CAZ1010.FT8024

Inspired by the enduring link between Tag Heuer and Formula 1 racing, the timepieces in this collection have been manufactured for both professional and everyday use. Tag’s Formula 1 is truly a sports watch created for life in the fast lane.

This specific Formula 1 is casual yet robustly stylish, bringing together a classic style and innovative engineering. The timeless black dial is host to minimalist and rectangular baton indexes, as well as the hand-applied number ‘12’. This numbering is reminiscent of earlier models, such as many of the Formula 1 timepieces from the 2nd series.

As a more contemporary design note, the Formula 1’s unidirectional bezel is smooth and has a tachymeter scale. This bezel is made from black titanium carbide coated steel for ultimate durability, and the three-row bracelet it sits upon is made from silver-toned polished steel. The watch also contains luminescent faceted hands to assist viewing in areas of low light, meaning that the timepiece is fashionable whilst being intrinsically adaptable and high-performance.

The Formula 1 is water resistant to an impressive 200 metres, a strength echoed in the use scratch-resistant sapphire crystal glass. For personal assistance, a date window has been incorporated at 4 o’clock, adding further function without affecting the overall appearance. The chronometer subdials measure 60 minutes, 1 minute and also include a running second counter. Furthermore, the watch movement is that of the Tag Heuer ‘quartz’, one of the most reliable and accurate movement technologies in Switzerland.

The Formula 1 collection truly showcases luxury sports watches at their finest, and this timepiece is no exception.
