In Response To: value of my vintage heuer ()

thanks for posting your message.

your watch (Reference 980.020) is in a 1982 brochure that I have, called "Heuer Specialty Collection 1982" . . . unfortunately, this brochure is not yet scanned and OnTheDash. Your watch is described as having an "elegant two-tone case and bracelet".

shown below is a page from the 1983 Heuer catalog, which the 980.021 (which is very similar to yours, with some minor tweaks to the styling) and the 980.022 (which is also similar, but has the gold case).

I don't follow the market for these watches, and cannot estimate the market value . . . perhaps others can help?
