Ge Presented for auction by Second Vintage This classic 1990s TAG Heuer sports watch is defined by its distinctive 6000 series case geometry and an attractive matte grey dial, featuring tritium luminous material that has aged to a warm, even patina. Brand: TAG Heuer Model: Professional Reference Number: WH1212 Serial Number: G10199 Movement: Quartz Dial: Matte grey with tritium luminous indices Case Size: 37 mm (exclusief de kroon) Case Material: Stainless steel Production Year: 1990s Condition: Good vintage condition. Dial and Hands The matte grey dial is presented in clean condition, offering a highly attractive backdrop for the crisp printed text. The original tritium luminous indices, denoted by the "T SWISS MADE T" signature at the bottom, have aged gracefully to a warm greenish-yellow patina. The classic Mercedes-style hands feature luminous material that perfectly matches the dial indices, accompanied by minor signs of oxidation on their metal surfaces. Case and Crystal The brushed stainless steel case showcases the distinctive lug design characteristic of the 6000 series. The steel unidirectional bezel, featuring engraved numerals and a luminous pip at twelve o'clock that shows expected aging, complements the robust architecture. The case and bezel exhibit moderate scratches and scuffs consistent with honest wear. The watch retains its signed TAG Heuer crown, which shows minor wear. A flat crystal, equipped with a cyclops magnifier over the date window, remains clear with no significant visible scratches or chips. Movement Inside is a clean ETA caliber 955.412 quartz movement. The mechanism features seven jewels and bears the "TAG HEUER 4.94" and "SWISS V8" engravings. Inspection reveals no visible signs of battery leakage or corrosion on the movement surfaces. Strap The watch is fitted with its original signed stainless steel bracelet, featuring the distinctive 6000 series link design. The bracelet is secured by a signed folding clasp and shows moderate scratches and signs of use throughout, remaining structurally sound. It accommodates a maximum wrist size of 18cm. Condition Good vintage condition. The case, bezel, and original bracelet display honest wear, with moderate scratches and scuffs consistent with normal use over the decades. The dial remains exceptionally clean, while the hands show minor oxidation on their metal surfaces. The luminous pip on the bezel exhibits expected aging. The quartz movement is clean and visually well-preserved. Dimensions The case measures 37 mm (excluding the crown). Remarks This TAG Heuer Professional offers a highly recognizable 1990s aesthetic with its signature 6000 series bracelet and case design. The beautifully aged tritium patina against the clean matte grey dial makes this a compelling and highly wearable vintage sports watch. History The TAG Heuer 6000 series was introduced in the 1990s as a premium sports watch offering, characterized by its complex case geometry and distinctive integrated-style bracelet links. During a pivotal decade for the brand, models like this Professional helped cement TAG Heuer's reputation for producing robust, highly recognizable sports timepieces. The use of tritium luminous material, which was phased out by the late 1990s, firmly roots this example in an important transitional era of modern watchmaking, appealing to collectors who appreciate the distinct character of naturally aged vintage dials. / Second Vintage SKU: TAG-PNX-0001
