Check the reference number before comparing movement, dimensions or functions. The Solargraph relaunch announced in 2025 is a separate Formula 1 story, not evidence that these Chronograph references use Solargraph movements.
Which TAG Heuer Formula 1 Chronograph models does this cover?
TAG Heuer’s Formula 1 Chronograph range includes different references and configurations. The examples below are not interchangeable: each specification belongs to the reference in its row.

Is the Formula 1 Chronograph automatic or quartz?
It depends on the reference. CAZ101AV.BA0842 and CAZ101AC.BA0842 are quartz chronographs. CAZ201G.BA0876 and the brochure-listed CBZZ082.FT8096 are Calibre 16 automatic chronographs. A collection name alone is not enough to identify the movement.
What is the difference between the 43 mm and 44 mm examples?
The listed 43 mm quartz CAZ101AV.BA0842 is 12.4 mm thick, while the 44 mm automatic CAZ201G.BA0876 is 15 mm thick. Both have a listed lug distance of 21.5 mm and water resistance of 200 m, but the 44 mm reference uses an automatic Calibre 16 movement and adds a 12-hour chronograph counter; the 43 mm reference has a 1/10-second chronograph and a 30-minute counter. These are differences between these specific references, not universal rules for every 43 mm or 44 mm Formula 1 Chronograph.
#1 Best Overall
Is the 2025 TAG Heuer Formula 1 a Solargraph or a Chronograph?
Those names describe separate product stories. LVMH’s 2025 annual report describes a Formula 1 relaunch with nine combinations and says: “For the first time in the TAG Heuer Formula 1 line, each model is equipped with the Solargraph movement.” That passage concerns the Solargraph relaunch, not the Chronograph references listed here. The Chronograph brochure extract separately identifies CBZZ082.FT8096 as a Calibre 16 automatic chronograph. LVMH 2025 annual report

How to compare or shop for a specific reference
- Match the complete reference number. Confirm every character on the product page or listing; similar collection names do not guarantee matching specifications.
- Choose the movement and timing functions you want. The examples here range from quartz 1/10-second timing to automatic Calibre 16 models with 30-minute and 12-hour counters.
- Check dimensions and materials for that reference. Diameter alone does not describe thickness, bracelet or strap, case material, or bezel construction.
- Verify local status before relying on a listing. TAG Heuer’s Bahrain page marks CAZ101AC.BA0842 discontinued, while a separate storefront displayed CAZ101AV.BA0842 at $2,550.00. These regional page details do not establish worldwide availability or a current price in another market.
