Re: Fratello Posting -- TAG Heuer Series 2000, from Bill Gat

My late Fathers silver dial 2000 was the watch that started my love affair with Heuer 10yrs ago.
Thank you sharing Jeff.

Stay safe everyone!

: Here's an excellent posting on Fratello Watches, about the TAG
: Heuer Series 2000 that belonged to Bill Gates --
: https://www.fratellowatches.com/how-bill-gatess-tag-heuer-ended-up-with-a-watch-enthusiast/

: Of course, the best part of the story is how the watch came to be
: owned by a passionate watch collector, who posts on Instagram as
: @WatchYouWearin . Well done, Johann!!

: Interesting that Bill Gates and Barack Obama both selected these
: TAG Heuer dive watches, in the late 1980s / early 1990s. Series
: 1500 for Obama and Series 2000 for Gates.

: These TAG Heuer dive watches were what many young businessmen /
: attorneys might have bought, when they were just starting their
: careers.

: And let's not forget Marlon Brando, around this same time, but
: that's another story for another day.
