Nice, I love the blue dial on this one 👍
Happy new year! I think that may be the problem. My unadjusted one looks like this going under the second bar (which makes it tight and unable to move)
Haven't seen one of those before... what is it?
It's the not commonly seen ref. 980.004. Even more uncommon for these is the unmarked caseback or clasp, weird that.
I can also confirm, @McBeardy you looped it wrong. It should look like this.
Watch the video I shared again. It's actually much easier to adjust the strap by not fully taking it off the buckle.
Doesn't 980 usually mean 1000 Series?
Jeff has this one listed separately as a Day/Date on his reference table at OTD, along with the 980.003.
Normally yes, but I believe the 980.004 pre-dates the 1000 Series nomenclature. It seems to have been introduced along with the legendary ref 844 as part of the Heuer Dive watch collection in 1979.
I love the simplicity in the catalog back then. Just ‘Gents diving watch, quartz, date’. Not the page of bs about how fine the movement is, how tough and ready for adventure it is, and how the history of this watch is the purest of any watch ever created.
