Hey all...

New member here. I recently found my old 1000 series in a box in the garage and started doing some research on it. I noticed that most photos of the 1000 actually have "1000" on the dial. Mine does not.

Is there any reason why some have it and others do not? Thanks!

Cheers,
Anthony

BTW, I also want to get a NATO strap for this. Is the bracelet 18mm? Thanks again!

 

The reference number is 980.0208. I got it back in late '94 I believe. I might still have the box and papers somewhere as well.

It's not currently running (most likely the battery is dead) but I suspect it could use a good service as well.

 

David: it's a B instead of an eight, which is correct for this model 980.020 Twotone 1000, other options is a D or N.
Sometimes you also see an L, but that's more on the Heuer versions.
Anthony: an 18mm NATO band will fit.

 

Yes, it's a "B". I had to take a photo then zoom in to notice

Thanks for the size confirmation!
