Our View

The Formula 1 Alarm is one of the more unusual references within the TAG Heuer catalogue. While retaining the sporty design and durability that made the Formula 1 line so popular, it adds a genuinely useful alarm complication that is rarely seen in modern luxury watches.

The anthracite grey dial works beautifully with the ceramic and steel bracelet, giving the watch a contemporary appearance while maintaining the rugged character expected of a Formula 1 model.

What really sets this example apart is the maintenance history. The inclusion of both the 2019 TAG Heuer service tag and the 2026 Harrods service documentation, together with the replacement of key components including the hands, crown and crown tube, shows this watch has been cared for exactly as it should be.

A distinctive TAG Heuer that offers excellent value, practicality and provenance.
