TAG Heuer Unveils Pastel Collection for Formula 1 Solargraph Watches TAG Heuer has expanded its Formula 1 Solargraph lineup with a new pastel collection featuring five 38mm references in soft colorways. The collection includes pastel shades of green, lavender blue, blue, beige, and pink, building on the solar-powered technology introduced in 2025. The watches are powered by the Solargraph Calibre TH50-00, a solar quartz movement that converts both natural and artificial light into energy. According to TAG Heuer, just one minute of light exposure provides enough power to run the watch for an entire day, ensuring extended autonomy with minimal maintenance. Two models in the collection feature sandblasted stainless steel cases with matching pastel dials—one in pastel green and another in lavender blue. These steel variants include eight diamond-set hour markers and are paired with three-link sandblasted steel bracelets. The remaining three models use TAG Heuer’s proprietary bio-polamide plastic, Polylight, for both case and bezel, in pastel blue, beige, and pink. These versions come with case-matching rubber straps and bidirectional-rotating Polylight bezels. All watches in the collection measure 38mm in diameter and 9.9mm in thickness, with a lug distance of 18.5mm and 100 meters of water resistance. The cases feature screw-down crowns and plain steel case backs, supporting their suitability for diving and sports use. The pastel pink Polylight model, referenced as WBY1165.FT8115, features an opalin-finished pink dial with rhodium-plated indexes and shield-shaped markers. It is priced at $1,950 and was made available for online pre-sale beginning April 28, 2026, at 3:00 am EDT. The stainless steel variants with diamond detailing retail at $2,800. This release continues TAG Heuer’s renewed focus on the Formula 1 collection following its return as the official timekeeper for Formula 1 in 2025. The Solargraph line, reintroduced that year, has been positioned as an accessible entry point into the brand while appealing to existing collectors through innovative materials and sustainable technology.
