Calibre 7 Twin Time - Looks real...?

@peterhaddy - yes, the photo in the catalogue does show the second hand as being red, while the one in the photo looks to be black/red. However, I wouldn't see this as a red flag in the absence of knowing more about this model. It's quite common for TAG Heuer/Heuer models to have slightly different parts from time to time, and the owner may have replaced the second hand. Heck, when I had my Classic 2000 refurbished byt TAG Heuer Customer Service, they replaced my bezel with a new one from a later model in the series. Although it is a different part, my watch is still 100% authentic (not that it matters as I'll never sell it).

On another note, fake/replica TAG Heuer watches from the 80's - 90's era look terrible and obvious. For example, the model number will be incorrect, the movement will be labeled incorrectly, and the overall quality, finish, and appearance will be way off. This one looks too "decent" to be a replica in my mind.

Seems like a bit of a high price for a quartz but remember this is a "Heuer" watch (not a TAG Heuer) so that may increase the value. One thing I would ask for is higher quality photographs of different parts of the watch (dial, caseback, bracelet, and even movement if possible).

Thanks for the info. Not really into heuer vintage, just had a friend bought 2000 usd vintage monaco got ripped off. If only he saw the article here...

Being 2000usd should have been enough to put him off........

I wanted to share this turd that obviously got chewed and spit by a crocodile because it tasted like toilet paper.

From the description:
"This is used and has a genuine leather Fossil wristband. This watch retails new for 10,000 dollars. So even if you spent a couple hundred to get it in pristine condition you'd be making a huge profit.
It does have scratch on face plate and needs recoated or some watch makers magic."

Now I need to find some watch makers magic.

Hello again
Need your expertise and experiences
Again. This item just got my attention. Priced around 550 USD. Finishing looks, serial number WAU111A, looks okay
My concern are:
1. Number below s/n is confusing, couldnt find reference for BUZ0362 on the bracelet strap reference. On catalog 2012/13 and 2011/12, I found BA0858, but this one doesnt make sense.
2. On catalog 2012/13 and 2011/12, the sub dial for alarm has white colour, this one black

And of course no paper
But what do you think gentlemen?

Thank you for the information.
Apologize with the questions, but I truly do not know, and after the the 1st tag, a 1500gmt, I think I am hooked up.😁😁😁 and plan to purchase the formula piece above of this one.
They both has same price tag, any thought? Real enough?

Elbeik:
Need to clarify thou. Found it on bukalapak.com, its kinda like local ebay.com
But date n hand is a bit different i guess?

Gentlemen, between the alarm F1 and the chrono, which one is better to keep in term of "rarity" (well both are not actually rare)

Help, not sure if this is real. Looking to sell and I want to know what to expect.
