Swiss luxury watch brand TAG Heuer presents the new Heuer Aquaracer Professional 200 Solargraph powered by a solar movement.
In March 2022, at Watches and Wonders, TAG Heuer introduced the original Aquaracer Professional 200 Solargraph, the first TAG Heuer watch and Aquaracer with a solar-powered movement. It features a black DLC steel sandblasted case with carbon bezel.
This year, TAG Heuer launches the Aquaracer Professional 200 Solargraph in titanium, which is extremely durable, scratch-resistant and lightweight.
Dressed in a 40mm diameter case, the TAG Heuer Aquaracer Professional 200 is an ideal watch to wear outdoors.
Its unique dial, partly translucent, allows the movement to recharge itself with the light’s rays. It is complemented by the polar blue, evoking the northern lights which illuminates the nights in the Arctic Circle.
The black indexes, hour and minute hand, and the polar blue lacquered central hands, all covered with Super Luminova®. The sleek and sporty bracelet is made of titanium.
With the Solargraph movement, there is no need to change the watch’s battery: it is recharged by the sun or artificial light. A two-minute exposure to direct sunlight is enough to power the watch for an entire day. Once fully charged, after less than 20 hours in the sun, the watch can run for up to six months with no light exposure.
To develop this reliable and efficient movement, called Caliber TH50-00, TAG Heuer partnered with the Manufacture La Joux-Perret in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland. This solar quartz movement has a 5-year extended warranty.
The TAG Heuer Aquaracer Professional 200 Solargraph will be sold in TAG Heuer stores worldwide and on the TAG Heuer e-commerce site starting in February 2023.
