TAG Heuer Aquaracer 300M Chronograph

This is a TAG Heuer Aquaracer 300 Meters Quartz Chronograph wrist watch, appearing to be a model from the mid-to-late 2000s or early 2010s. The timepiece features a brushed stainless steel case and matching three-row link bracelet. The silver sunray dial is contrasted by three dark blue sub-dials positioned at the 3, 6, and 9 o'clock marks, with a prominent '12' numeral at the top. Notable dial markings include the 'AQUARACER' and '300 METERS' text, a date window between the 4 and 5 o'clock positions, and the TAG Heuer logo in color below the 12. The hands are luminous and it features a distinctive red-tipped chronograph seconds hand. The watch is equipped with a unidirectional rotating bezel with engraved Arabic numerals every 10 minutes and a luminous Pip at the zero position. Condition-wise, the watch shows signs of regular wear, including numerous scratches and scuffs on the bezel, case, and lugs, suggesting it hasn't been recently polished. The crystal appears relatively clear but would require close inspection for micro-scratches. The watch is built with heavy-duty construction typical of professional divers' watches, including a screw-down crown and pushers.
