The watch that saved TAG Heuer.
In the late 1970s, the quartz crisis forced most Swiss houses to abandon mechanical production. For TAG Heuer, newly renamed at the time, the answer was the 1000 Series: robust, precise, and accessible divers built to survive the new era.
This reference 980.613N, from the 1990s, carries all of that on the wrist.
A deep blue dial, the unmistakable Heuer diver case, and the original jubilee bracelet, all in remarkable condition. The bezel insert is untouched and it is only missing its tritium pearl missing at 12 o’clock, while the mineral crystal shows only a light mark near 7.
Inside, the reliable ETA 955 quartz movement keeps time with absolute precision. A new circuit has been mounted, keeping the originality of the rest of the movement. A classic that blends vintage charm with everyday versatility.
