The Formula One fan's favourite watch is back, and it's certainly a champion's timepiece. TAG Heuer introduces the TAG Heuer Formula 1 Red Bull Racing Special Edition, which features a stunning new livery and two new references – a welcome addition to the TAG Heuer Formula 1 best-seller collection and a fitting tribute to TAG Heuer's long-standing partnership with the Red Bull Racing Honda Formula 1 team.

TAG Heuer and Red Bull Racing's mutual ideals are embodied in this remarkable new co-creation, which pays gratitude to all Red Bull Racing fans. All Red Bull Racing lovers will like the new TAG Heuer Formula 1 Red Bull Racing Special Edition. The timepiece is ideal for Formula 1 and Red Bull Racing aficionados, thanks to its bolder appearance and advanced technical characteristics. TAG Heuer's designers collaborated closely with the Red Bull Racing team to co-create this one-of-a-kind timepiece that incorporates all of the Formula 1 team's graphic codes.

The designers emphasised the Red Bull Racing Team's dramatic colours, such as the famous dark blue and startling red tones, in this new edition. This is exemplified by the beautiful blue sun-brushed dial with a bespoke minuterie incorporating brilliant yellow and red accents. Yellow and red details can be found on the 1/10th second chronograph counter at 6 o'clock, as well as the chronograph central second hand.

The Arabic numeral indexes are modelled after race car speedometers, and Formula 1 fans will note a subtle nod to their favourite sport in the form of a line over the 5 and 7 numerals. The line is meant to mimic a Formula 1 track's starting line. The new dial is similarly inspired by Formula 1 car cockpits and is extremely legible, making it easy to read the time in any situation.

The TAG Heuer Formula 1 Red Bull Racing Special Edition sports circular pushers with a red lacquer outline to accentuate the chronograph start pusher at 2 o'clock, completing this strong racing style. The word "SPEED" is inscribed on a unique bezel, a term that perfectly encapsulates Formula 1's pursuit for ultimate performance.
