WTF, looks like I am collecting watches....comments on htis TAG Heuer?
This looks unique.....:confused: http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/MTAwMFg2Nj...S3c-i/$_57.JPG |
Nice looking too...
|
Being a quartz, and from the Tag era, it should not be worth much.
heuer has value when automatic, and pre-tag. |
Cool watch, the early quartz Tags aren't really worth much, unless there's something truly significant about that model it's probably worth about 300, maybe 350...
|
The watch is a Heuer, sold prior to the beginning of TAG Heuer. Heuers are very collectible. Am guessing that Heuer quartz watch is worth more than a TAG Heuer quartz.
TAG = Techniques d'Avant-Garde (TAG Heuer) |
Shoot, can't believe I missed that it wasn't Tag....very cool!
|
Probably worthless Joe Bob......Out of pity sake more than anything I will give you say....$50.00 for the thing?;)
|
delayed double post.....wtf.....
|
I have almost that exact watch, but it is branded as a TAG Heuer. I bought it new in the 80s and wore it so much that I wore out one band. Recently purchased another thru my Jeweller, and still enjoy wearing this watch very much. Worth way more than $300 to me, for sure.

It's an early TAG-Heuer. Maybe mid- to early-80s?
The bracelet clasp has the full TAG-Heuer shield. The crown has just the Heuer part of the shield (no TAG) just like depicted on the watch face. I have a TAG-Heuer Formula 1 I purchased back in 1989 with those markings. Modern TAG-Heuers have the full TAG-Heuer shield on the crown and clasp (with stampings on the clasp to mimic a continuation of the bracelet links). I could be wrong, but I don't remember the model depicted in the OP's post from being on sale at that time, which is why I'm guessing a model older than what I have. |
As long as we're talking watches ...... (hijack in progress) ......
I was given a watch about 28 years ago as a gift and i've worn it maybe 10 times since new. Not really my style. It sits in a drawer and i take it out every 5 years and get a new battery put in it. the guy says, pull the spindle thing out and it won't kill the battery. but I always forget. Anywho its a seiko lassale quartz gold over stainless, slimline. Looks like the pics below. I'm guessing it's worth a couple $hundred tops. too high, too low? http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1391040429.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1391040438.jpg |

It is a shame because the Japanese DO make some very cool/tough/reliable watches. |
Hey Sammy, does it come with a rainbow sticker and a Miata?

OP, very early TAGs were branded Heuer, after TAG acquired the name. Heuer, a fine old House, was a victim of the Japanese quartz invasion. TAG bought the name in 85 or 86- ive got a quartz TAG Heuer I bought in Singapore in 86- so yours must be a very early one, carrying the "Heuer" name. That's its main point of interest Im afraid. |
I like Sammy's watch....Todays trend of gigantic " I'm a Douchebag " watches drives me nuts!!!!
|
Ha! I drooled over the leather band version of that Lassale thirty years ago! That watch is probably about 2mm thick - the pictures don't do it justice. My girlfriend at the time (now my wife!) bought me the similar looking but less expensive look-alike version of that style made by Seiko.
