To honor Red Bull’s milestone of 20 years in racing, Tag Heuer recently unveiled a stylish timepiece in Red Bull’s signature colors—yellow, blue, and red. Every element on the watch, from the casing to the dial, symbolizes Red Bull’s racing spirit.

According to Antoine Pin, CEO of TAG Heuer, “For us, it felt like the perfect moment to create a special watch that represents everything Oracle Red Bull racing can be proud of, from the outstanding championship victories and the triumphant racing successes with Max Verstappen and Sergio Pérez.”

Featuring a dial with an asphalt-like texture, this timepiece recreates some of the best moments Red Bull had on the track. The dial also features a huge logo at the 10 O’clock, 9 O’clock, and 8 O’clock denotations, solidifying the partnership between Oracle and Tag Heuer.

While the watch comes with three subdials, all subdials are quite similar to speedometers featured on red-bull cars.

Since this watch marks a special moment in history, the case back has a logo of Red Bull’s 20th Formula 1 anniversary that subtly tells Red Bull’s story.

Tag Heuer also capitalized on this opportunity and paid tribute to Max Verstappen, congratulating him on his fourth World Champion title. His fourth win resonates with Red Bull’s core principles—excellence and determination.

Fortunately, the partnership between Red Bull and Tag Huer is built around the same principles, so this new watch is an embodiment of the success the two brands have been enjoying in the past years.

Only 3,000 pieces will be rolled out in the market.

Ming unveils 29.01 midnight worldtimer in limited 25-piece edition
The batman to bruce wayne: ming's dark worldtimer gets the midnight treatment
Ming 29.01 midnight worldtimer

Ming has presented a darker version of its well-received worldtimer. The new 29.01 Midnight is a timepiece with a black DLC-coated titanium case. Production is limited to 25 pieces, and its price is CHF 22,000.
After the successful 29.01 worldtimer, this variant adopts the color combination first seen on the brand's 37.09 Uni model. The Midnight edition keeps the original's functions but adds a nocturnal look. The brand describes it as suitable for secret night missions or private assignations.
The 40mm grade 5 titanium case features a deep sapphire box crystal, which serves as both the front crystal and bezel, seamlessly connecting to the case body. This construction gives the appearance of having no bezel at all. The watch is water-resistant to 50m. It also features "flying blade" lugs, which allow it to sit comfortably on a variety of wrist sizes.
Ming’s dial design uses several layers to create a sense of depth. A rotating metal 24-hour disc works with static city names, which are printed on two levels of the sapphire dial. Cities include New York, Rio, London, and Pago Pago.
The watch is easy to read at night. Every feature on the sapphire components and hands is coated with ceramic Super-LumiNova X1. The orange numerals add a pop of color against the dark layout and glow orange in the dark.
A Schwarz-Etienne ASE 222 caliber powers the 29.01 Midnight. Ming has modified this movement, giving it a skeletonized barrel for monitoring winding. The bridges are coated in 5N rose gold and finished with diamond-cut anglage. It also features a redesigned tungsten microrotor. Ming Thein designed the bridge, matching the brand’s style.
The microrotor has a new, donut-like shape. It uses ceramic ball bearings and a modified mounting system for improved winding. A four-level staircase acts as the rotor guard, adding another visual element to the movement, which is visible through the domed sapphire caseback.
The timepiece comes with a black molded FKM rubber strap, attached to a DLC-coated flying blade buckle with micro-adjustment. Buyers also receive a strap of their choice.
Shipping of the Ming 29.01 Midnight will start in June 2025. The watches are available at ming.watch and through retail partners. Ming notes that only 25 pieces will be produced. Ming notes that "chances of spotting another one in the field are vanishingly small."

McLaren Racing X Jack Daniel's Tennessee Whiskey

This is the third McLaren Racing X Jack Daniel's Tennessee Whiskey release. This 86-proof Tennessee whiskey combines sleek racing-inspired packaging and award-winning whiskey.

Like all of the brand's whiskeys, it was mellowed using ten feet of charcoal using the Lincoln County Process. It was then matured in new, American white oak barrels.
