TAG Heuer has unveiled the Formula 1 Red Bull Racing Special Edition, signalling the return of a fan favourite for the brand.
The release features a new livery and two new references and has been launched to celebrate the alliance between Red Bull Racing and TAG Heuer.
The new TAG Heuer Formula 1 Red Bull Racing Special Edition offer a bolder design than its predecessors as well as advanced technical features.
While creating this special edition, designers at TAG Heuer worked closely with the Red Bull Racing team to co-create this unique timepiece using all the graphic codes of the Formula 1 Team.
For this new version, the designers highlighted the bold colours of the Red Bull Racing Team, such as the dark blue and striking red tones.
The new blue sun-brushed dial with a customised minuterie featuring vibrant yellow and red touches is the perfect example of this.
The 1/10th second chronograph counter at 6 o’clock has also yellow and red details and the chronograph central second hand is highlighted in yellow.
The Arabic numeral indexes are directly inspired by racing car speedometers and the Formula 1 connoisseurs will also notice the subtle reference to their favourite sport in the form of a line above the 5 and 7 numerals.
The line is designed to evoke the starting line of a Formula 1 track. The new dial is also inspired by Formula 1 car cockpits and is highly legible to make the time easy to read in all conditions.
To complete this bold racing design the TAG Heuer Formula 1 Red Bull Racing Special Edition has round pushers painted with a red lacquer outline to highlight the chronograph start pusher at 2 o’clock.
The TAG Heuer Formula 1 Red Bull Racing Special Edition is available in two different watch versions, one with a stainless-steel bracelet and one with a blue rubber strap, offering the choice between a sporty look thanks to the rubber strap or a more elegant appearance thanks to the stainless-steel bracelet.
The caseback of the watch is also engraved with the words “RED BULL RACING FORMULA ONE TEAM SPECIAL EDITION”.
With this new creation, TAG Heuer confirms its strong links to the team of the 2021 World Drivers’ Champion while giving fans a return of one of their favourites.
