FS: Oversized Heuer Diver 42mm case

Another big ol' oversized Heuer diver up for re-homing..

Heuer 980.006 Professional Diver, massive 42mm case, 44mm-ish with the crown, c1981-83.
Everything all correct and how it should be. Recently had a new glass, glass gasket and crown, vintage-tint relumed hands by James.

It's got some wabi, with lightly aged lume, nice clean dial with nice clear & sharp 'thick' Heuer shield. (The shields varied over the years, most are thin, a few thicker - general theory is that Heuer may have used two dial suppliers, hence the slight differences over the years). The hands have some feint wabi on the metal, they have been relumed by James in a vintage tint as the original was cracking/falling off. One thing to note is that the hour lume dots are slightly 'off centre', I've seen this on a few Heuer divers, maybe a glitch in the lume dot application process. It's not very noticeable, but please look at the straight-on shots to see what I mean.

Comes on a decent vintage tropic strap, it has nice thick ends, and is held tightly in place as it butts against the watch case.

(due to an unexpected incoming, I need to balance the books a little, so it's up at a kick a$$ price)

£385 inc. free delivery to UK/US/Canada/EU Any questions, just ask.

Cheers
Stewart
