TAG Heuer S/el (Sports Elegance) Quartz Watch
This is a vintage TAG Heuer 'S/el' (Sports Elegance) wrist watch, likely from the late 1980s or 1990s. The piece is characterized by its iconic 'S' shaped double-link integrated metal bracelet, which is a signature design element of the S/el line that later evolved into the Link series. The watch features a round stainless steel case with a unidirectional rotating diver's bezel marked with Arabic numerals for elapsed time. The dial is white with circular and rectangular luminous hour markers, a date window at the 3 o'clock position, and the gold-toned TAG Heuer logo at 12 o'clock. The text on the dial identifies it as a quartz movement with a '200 Meters' water resistance rating. The Mercedes-style hands are present, showing signs of oxidation. The overall condition of the watch exhibits significant wear, with heavy scratching, surface grime, and dulled metal throughout the case and bracelet, indicating it has not been polished or serviced recently. The crystal shows some surface abrasions, and the luminous material on the markers has yellowed with age, creating a vintage patina.
