Greetings gang!

Earlier this week we found an old Tag 1000 diver for cheap and luckily with a bit of cleaning in the battery area she is up and running great. We have had a few of these over the years but this one differs from what we usually come across as the inner case back is not signed or stamped, and the bracelet head links differ from what we usually see. Doubt the original owner put this thing together as he is elderly and not a watch buff.

Anyways I posted some detailed photos just in case anyone else comes across a similar configured watch so they can use this one for comparison. Another pal on WUS mentioned Tag was using up older parts when they took over Heuer and that might explain the combination of this watch. It has the correct model # movement and everything else seems the same as others we came across. Hope y'all enjoy the pictures and we welcome any comments and opinions on this el-cheapo yard sale find.

I'm gonna be wearing this baby plenty as I love these older divers! Hope everyone has a nice weekend 😀
