This is the first automatic Formula One model that we've seen. These are new offerings from TAG Heuer, perhaps trying to change the entry-level reputation of the Formula line. Although the coloring might not be for everyone, they've done a very nice job with the features. The bezel is a combination of titanium carbide and ceramic, the ceramic being the brushed portion, which is great for preventing nasty scratches. The titanium carbide coating the entire watch gives it a nice silky feel. The Tag Heuer Caliber 16 (aka. Valjoux 7750 movement) gives the piece a good weight and that occasional heartbeat-like kick from rotor in freewheel. I would've liked them to have used a push button buckle, but otherwise, no complaints.
