The TAG Heuer Formula 1 Solargraph x Indy 500 Limited Edition is a 38mm watch with a solar-powered TH50-00 movement and 100m water resistance, priced at $2,250 and limited to 1,110 pieces. Reviewers note its sandblasted steel case and Indy 500 branding, with some finding its gilt tones and vintage flavor appealing beyond motorsport enthusiasts. Owners report the watch is a good, solid timepiece with a bright dial and a precise, loud bezel, and its minimal thickness fits easily under cuffs. However, one owner regrets not choosing titanium, as the polished steel case scratches easily. Opinions on value are divided, with some finding it overpriced while others consider it the only watch worth buying. Overall, owners and reviewers find the TAG Heuer Formula 1 Solargraph x Indy 500 Limited Edition appealing for its design and wearability, though concerns exist regarding case material durability and perceived value.
Owners widely appreciate the TAG Heuer Formula 1 Alarm for its utility and reasonable price point, with one owner finding the 41mm case size to be a good fit. The alarm complication is a valued feature for its practicality, though its loudness is noted as not very significant. The quartz movement's ticking is described as unobtrusive due to a minimized second hand. However, several owners report issues with the alarm function, citing difficulty in setting it accurately, its failure to adjust for daylight saving time, and the lack of a snooze function or AM/PM distinction. Overall, owners rate the TAG Heuer Formula 1 Alarm well for its practical alarm complication and value, despite noted issues with the alarm's functionality.
