TAG Heuer has expanded its Solargraph lineup for 2026 with the introduction of new Aquaracer Professional 100 and Aquaracer Professional 200 models. Building on the brand’s growing use of light-powered movements, the latest releases combine updated case designs, refined finishing, and enhanced ergonomics with TAG Heuer’s TH50-00 and TH51-00 Solargraph calibres.
The Aquaracer story dates back to 1978, when Jack Heuer introduced the Heuer Reference 844, a purpose-built dive watch designed for demanding aquatic environments. The Aquaracer name itself arrived in 2004, formalizing a collection defined by features such as a unidirectional bezel, screw-down crown, sapphire crystal, luminous markings, and water resistance of at least 200 metres. Since then, the collection has gradually expanded beyond traditional dive watch territory while maintaining its focus on durability and legibility.
Among the headline additions for 2026 is the return of a 28mm case size within the Aquaracer Professional 100 Solargraph collection. Powered by the TH51-00 movement, the new references offer up to eight months of autonomy on a full charge and can fully recharge in approximately 14 hours using either natural or artificial light. The collection includes black and blue sunray dial variants with diamond hour markers, alongside two mother-of-pearl models that introduce a more jewellery-inspired approach while retaining the Aquaracer’s sporty identity.

TAG Heuer has also reworked the Aquaracer Professional 200 Solargraph in a new 40mm format. Powered by the TH50-00 movement, the updated models introduce revised case geometry, a redesigned bezel with restored rider tabs, and a new interchangeable bracelet system. Steel references arrive in blue and green with horizontally textured dials, while titanium models lean further into the tool-watch side of the Aquaracer lineage. A sandblasted Grade 2 titanium model with polar blue accents offers the most overtly technical look of the range, while a full Grade 5 titanium reference paired with rose gold details delivers a more elevated interpretation of the platform. The TH50-00 calibre requires just 10 minutes of light exposure for approximately 40 hours of power reserve and can run for up to 10 months when fully charged.
