CONDITION
The TAG Heuer 6000 was their premium line, naturally above the F1, 1000, 1500, 2000 and 4000 series. If anything, the problem with the 1990’s TAG Heuer models is they are all a little samey – they use the Mercedes hands, have water resistance to 200m, screw down crown, rotating bezel etc so to make the The TAG Heuer 6000 stand out was a hard job. But the designer was Jorg Hysek, and he made a model that was similar yet distinct. Being top of the range also means you got sapphire crystal, and a nice folding clasp rather than a buckle. Inside the case is an ETA 7 jewel movement that is working well, and we will install a brand new battery before sending the watch out to the new owner. This is the largest case size they did. The dial is very nice, a deep grey with clean lume plots. The leather strap is used, and has plenty of life left in it. If you wanted to swap the strap in future you can also use conventional springbars, but this strap you screw the ends to the case.
This watch will be supplied with our branded presentation box and our Certificate of Authenticity.
