1985 Tag Heuer 1000 Ref. 981.013
1985 Tag Heuer 1000 Ref. 981.013
Considered the collection which saved Tag Heuer from bankruptcy during the quartz crisis, the 1000 series has an important part in horological history. This particular reference is the extremely rare olive PVD coated version. It's also the earliest model, before any letters were added to the reference, which means it has the thicker case and no '1000' under the logo. Speaking of the logo it's also 'Heuer' only, from a time before 'Tag' and 'Heuer' merged they are extremely rare to find and thus very collectable. It comes on a distressed style perforated leather strap which suits the watch perfectly. It is powered by an in-house movement and as with any Swiss quartz it’s extremely accurate and reliable.
