Ross Brawn, current F1 Race & Technical Director.
Full of TAG Heuer! (backdrop and lanyard) 👍👍

I’m assuming he wears a TAG Heuer watch as well 😉🙁

I really think Matt Damon is a TAG Heuer guy 👍

These are easier to identify 😉

The picture I posted was taken in São Paulo, 1994. It must be the same watch in the first picture you posted, as long as he was wearing a Williams racing suit. Senna raced for Williams in ‘94 only.

If the pic is from '94 then it must be the 6000, that seems to be the only watch I recall seeing him wear that year.

I've often wondered just how many TAG Heuer watches Senna actually owned. We've seen him with the S/EL creme dial, S/EL dark grey dial, S/EL on a silver bracelet (I'm guessing with a white face), and Series 6000 normal & Senna edition. Also IIRC, I think I've even seen a pic of him wearing an F1 once (not sure if I trust my memory though).

In addition, it seems that Senna may have owned several of the same watch. In the pic below, he seems to have a creme dial S/EL on his wrist and an identical back-up watch in his brief case.

When you are the ambassador-model for the watch & also motto of a brand, you’ll surelly get all the color variants you want 😉

Yes indeed. But ironically during his entire first year at McLaren in '88, Senna wore this black Casio like looking watch. After winning the world championship, I suppose he could finally afford to splurge and get a TAG Heuer. LOL. 😜

In looking through one of my books on Senna, I found he also wore what appears to be a TAG Heuer Series 2000 Chronograph during part of the '89 season. I think he later switched to his famous S/el ana-digi towards the end of that season, based on the photos I've seen.
(Sorry, photos aren't the best, used my phone to take pics from my book.)


I believe it's this watch.

Two more from my books. These aren't as commonly photographed as his other watches.

A red F1 (I knew I had seen him with the F1), this was from the '91 Japanese GP.


A silver dial 6000 on bracelet. When racing, he usually wore the white dial 6000 on leather strap.


Chronologically, I believe he wore the following watches the most often when racing.
1989: Series 2000 Chronograph
1989-92: Sports Elegance Ana-Digi
1993-94: Series 6000

His girlfriend, Adriane Galisteu, often wore a matching TAG Heuer as well.

Dempsey wearing his (1 of 50) Monaco Gulf 1st Victory. This guy has far more TAGs than Senna ever did.

Talking with @kappa_md 👍 in another thread about our favourite football team, F.C. Barcelona (Barça), I remembered one of its greatest players being a TAG Heuer ambassador: Andrés Iniesta, here wearing the TAG Heuer Connected Modular 45 😉
This event was also sponsored by my usual AD in Barcelona, Unión Suiza

a) What happened to his watch? and b) is that woman a waxwork?
