Dial and Hands The watch features a striking grey textured 'granite' style dial that remains exceptionally well preserved. Applied luminous indices provide excellent visual depth and have developed an even, creamy patina over the years. All printed text is crisp and fully intact across the surface. The original Mercedes-style handset carries luminous material that perfectly matches the dial indices. Under magnification, minor surface oxidation is visible on the hands, consistent with honest aging. Case and Crystal The brushed and polished stainless steel case retains its distinctive lug design. The case exhibits moderate scratches and scuffs consistent with honest wear and age. It is fitted with a steel unidirectional rotating bezel; the raised surfaces show scratches, and the engraved numerals display wear with some loss of their original black fill. The flat sapphire crystal remains clear, showing no significant scratches or chips. A screw-down crown, signed with the TAG Heuer shield logo, completes the right side of the case. Movement Inside the case is an ETA-based caliber 955 412 quartz movement. The movement is engraved with "TAG HEUER 2.93" and features seven jewels. It presents a clean appearance with no obvious signs of battery leakage or corrosion. Strap The watch is fitted with its original signed stainless steel bracelet, featuring the distinctive S/el style integrated link design. The bracelet displays a brushed finish with polished accents and exhibits moderate scratches and wear on the links and the signed clasp. It will accommodate a maximum wrist size of 17.5cm. Condition Good vintage condition. The dial is wonderfully preserved with an attractive luminous patina, while the hands show only minor surface oxidation under magnification.
