TAG HEUER

Pre-owned Gold Watch In White

TAG Heuer Professional 6000 Mens Full Size Divers Watch - 18K Gold - Wh514 TAG's Flagship Watch - Gorgeous Condition with Box & Booklets Today's offering showcases this rare 18K gold TAG Heuer Professional 6000 Series divers watch. At the time, the 6000 was TAG Heuer's flagship watch, its first; and while almost all examples we built in steel and steel with gold accents, TAG Heuer built a few in 18K gold to serve as the true pinnacle flagship watch for the brand. While we have owned dozens of 6000's, this is the first 18K one we have ever owned...we've wanted to acquire a gold 6000 for a number of years, and when we did it slipped into my wearing collection for a few months. Featuring a rotating elapsed time bezel, and precision automatic movement, the TAG Heuer 6000 Professional watch unites sport and prestige. Its heavy solid 18K gold architecture is both elegant and sporty. And unlike the quartz versions of most TAG's from the period, this more desirable mechanical example is powered by the very well made ETA 2892-A2 based movement with gilded rotor, which is quite pristine. Fitting for TAG Heuer's very finest watch at the time, the company sent the movement away for official chronometer certification, the highest outside distinction awarded to a commercial movement for accuracy. This full size 6000 measures 40mm in diameter with guards but without crown - the same size as most Rolex sports watches. It has all of its original parts and presents in beautiful condition - about a 9.2 out of 10. The case presents as just short of mint with only light signs of previous polishing. All of the hallmarks and markings, included the very lightly stamped serial number, are still very clear. The original dial and sapphire crystal both present as mint. And the original crown screws down very well. Any needed servicing has been performed by one of our Master Watchmakers who used to be an authorized watchmaker for Rolex. It continues to keep accurate time. For the finishing touch we have equipped it with a brand new crocodile strap and aftermarket Heuer style buckle making it ready for immediate enjoyment. Accompanying the watch are its rare, correct TAG Heuer box and booklets. A great article on the 6000's can be found here: The Ultimate Guide to the TAG Heuer 6000.
