I've been toying with one of these for my son as a present and his first introduction to the world of watches as i thought it might be nice for him to have a Tag Heuer
You absolutely should! Great watches, I just have too many (15 of these F1s) and I need to have less. I was going to collect them all and then changed my mind.
It is tempting if i am honest as i'd like him to have a nice watch that he could keep as they both like my watches and the F1's seem to fit the bill. I've not spent any time looking into the F1's as they've not been on my radar until today
These 1st generation F1s were produced from 1987 until 1996, here's a link to a page on my blog which should help. https://tagheuerenthusiast.blogspot.com/2020/07/history-tag-heuer-formula-1-first.html Perfect first introduction to the luxury watch world, and mine are in very good condition.

Sad to see parts of this great collection being sold. It was always a highlight for me to see your latest, such amazing varieties!
Oh man, yeah I know... but rest assured the money that comes in will be spent on more TAGs, just not Formula 1s.
Twas me!! Just recently started buying THs and I bought the black and yellow one (relisted?)- smaller than expected ( oh my how watch sizes have changed over the last 40 years!!) but put an orange and black nato strap on and it looks like a full on rave-wear watch now - bit of classy fun . .....and discovered this forum via Calibre11.com /Omega forums and this is my first post - hola!!
Uh-oh errrmmmm, i'm keeping the original strap safely stored for the future.... It didn't fit ( too small).... I was threatened by a stranger...
