What makes it unique? 

This chronograph pays homage to Ayrton Senna's legend. A new addition to TAG Heuer's Formula 1 line, this timepiece honours the brand's undying enthusiasm and commitment to motorsport competitiveness. The instantly identifiable unusual S-shaped engraved black leather band of the watch is a nod to the S/EL that Senna used to wear on his TAG Heuer. The leather on the bracelet is dynamized with yellow stitching, and it has a black steel clasp with two safety system push buttons.

The yellow and black colour pattern on the Formula 1 Senna Special Edition pays homage to Senna's distinctive colours. Starting with the famed double S (the Brazilian driver's trademark logo), which crowns the bezel at 12 o'clock with the Senna moniker, the yellow tone is prevalent throughout this 2021 edition. The signature or emblem of the double S may also be found on the dial, where it is incorporated into the 6 o'clock subdial. At 6, 9, and 3 o'clock, the grey anthracite dial features classic hour, minute, and second indicators, as well as a discreet "TAG Heuer Formula 1" reminder.
