No doubt you are looking for breathing space after the commotion Hours and wonders Last week, TAG Heuer dropped an update to its system 2025 renewed collection From the brand’s iconic 1980s plastic box He watches“Formula 1.”
The five new pieces are called “Pastel Collection” from TAGThey are all based on the same solar-powered Formula 1 Solargraph 38mm car that was launched in March last year. Both models feature a sandblasted stainless steel case, while the remaining three models have cases made from TAG’s proprietary bio-based polylamide plastic, Polylight.
These Polylight releases, according to WIRED, are the stars of the new capsule collection. Coming in pastel blue, beige and pink, as well as sporting rubber straps to match the case and bi-directional rotating Polylight bezels, these watches nod to the classic F1 designs that made the line special in the first place.
Stainless steel models have a three-link polished steel bracelet and a pastel green or lavender blue dial with matching Polylight bezels. The dials of both watches also see eight diamonds replacing the circular hour markers. TAG says these models add “a touch of refinement for those seeking sophistication,” but given that these “luxury” F1 cars will retail at $2,800, as opposed to the already expensive $1,950 full Polylight versions, our pick is definitely the plastic pieces.
Not only do these blue, beige and pink versions make a pleasant harkening back to the F1’s old designs – although now sized at 38mm instead of the original’s 35mm – but they also, just like all F1 Solargraphs, come equipped with screw-down crowns and case backs, making them water-resistant to 100 meters and ensuring they’ll serve well as dive watches and sports watches. My recommendation? Choose pink, as it looks great on the wrist. Beige is a very close second.
