The TAG Heuer Formula 1 Solargraph is praised for its successful revival of a classic design with modern updates like the TH50-00 solar quartz movement and applied indices, offering a 10-month power reserve. Owners appreciate its durability, accuracy, and low-maintenance nature as a "grab-and-go beater watch," with some finding the double date windows "very cool" and the alarm functional. However, one owner reported issues with stainless steel bands being "garbage" and batteries running out quickly, while another noted a watch needing servicing after a few years due to timekeeping issues and a preference for a moveable bezel. The clasp engraving is described as a minor disappointment, and one owner received the wrong style of box of very bad quality. Overall, owners and reviewers consider the TAG Heuer Formula 1 a great, nostalgic entry point into the brand, particularly for its value and modern solar quartz movement.
The TAG Heuer Formula 1 (ref. WBY1114.FT8084) is a solar quartz mechanical watch, with a 38mm stainless steel case, 9.9mm thick, powered by the TH50-00 movement. Water resistance is rated to 100m, with date complications. Manufacturer MSRP is $1,950.
