In the late 1970s the idea was a real change of direction for a company better known for timing racing cars. The 1000 Series proved that Heuer could make a straightforward quartz watch people genuinely wanted, and its look would go on to influence years of TAG Heuer sports watches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis later TAG-branded Professional still has that clarity of purpose. The guarded crown, clear markers and numbered bezel are there to make sense at a glance, while the blue dial and bezel give this example a welcome bit of character. It's an important part of the Heuer story that doesn't depend on a stopwatch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA BIT OF TRIVIA\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe idea for Heuer's quartz dive watches came from a conversation at the 1979 ISPO sporting-goods fair in Munich. Jack Heuer heard diving-equipment suppliers complaining about private-label watches that let water in, and saw a gap in the market. The resulting 1000 Series did so well that the range grew to four sizes, with a bracelet extension made for wearing over a wetsuit. Jack later credited those watches with helping Heuer return to profit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOUR THOUGHTS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe blue is what draws us to this one. It gives a practical, familiar diver's layout a friendlier character than black, and there's something satisfying about how little fuss the design makes. We can imagine it being the watch someone reaches for on a Saturday without giving it a second thought, yet still enjoys looking at on the wrist. You don't need to be a diver, or a motorsport fan, to appreciate a good-looking Heuer.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Past2PresentWatches","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":63183621489027,"sku":"TH613NWO","price":795.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0783\/2397\/4423\/files\/tag-heuer-980.613n-front-_5.jpg?v=1794575662","url":"https:\/\/past2presentwatches.com\/products\/vintage-tag-heuer-1000-professional-980-613n-1-quartz-watch-uk-warranty","provider":"Past2PresentWatches","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
