Not exactly my cup of tea, but got given this today for nothing, a real slice of retro 80's 90's style. Stuck a new battery in it and away it went. The link bracelet is a bit of a bugger to resize but I'll give it another go before I give up and take it to the professionals.
Any ideas what model this is as there's nothing on the back
The dial is a pinky salmon colour which doesn't quite come across in the photos

I keep looking at the new aquaracer with the tortoise shell bezel. Keep teasing myself but just not sure on getting an automatic.

Heuer used to supply a specialist tool to agents for link removal on these. They’re tricky enough with it, without it you’re likely to cause some damage. I’d say take it to the professionals, but you’ll need a long established one in the hope they still have the tool. I’d guess around 2000/2001 the ‘s/el’ was replaced for the ‘Link’

Another S/EL here. Owned for nearly 25 years now and still going strong.

Got it done in the end at a local shop no problem at a cost of £7.50

Thanks. I collect Heuer stopwatches and Ive got quite a few. Trackstars/mates/masters have a cool name but they're actually cheapo pieces, so I thought that I would press this one into service. It is probably more use than all of the others combined (apart from for looking at).

Here's my 2020 AquaRacer.
Not a daily watch, but has regular wrist time between my EcoDrive and Apple Watch (Gym "thing").

Looking at a Speedmaster next year.

They are all very nice. I especially like the Monaco. Not seen one like that before.

I’m wearing my old work watch today. Since replaced by a chunky Oris BC3 which has had a hard life and looks as though it was used as a street hockey puck, but it came back from a repair and service by Joe Horner within a second day.

1999 TAG-Heuer 2000 automatic:

'Wrist time' sounds like something that should only occur in private.

My Carrera, was a gift from my mother 14 years ago. Still going strong although it needs an (expensive) service.
