Goodmorning,

First of all I wanna say: i'm from the Netherlands, and my english is okay, but not perfect;) I hope you will understand my questions.
Second: I wanna thank you for reading/answering my questions.

My Father died 2 years ago, and he left me some watches.
He was a big fan of collectable things. But you never where he get it from.

I have here a Vintage Tag Heuer watch, maybe you can help me out. I dont want to sell it, but i want to know the history about it.

• Is this watch a real TH watch?
• Watch model is? Whats the name? Or the Number?
• What year?
• It's a quartz.
• What is it worth? How much do i have to pay in a Jewelry in this condition
• ​Can you tell me more about this item?

​Thank you for your time!

Check out the Archived TAG Heuer Catalogs sticky. Go to the 1991 catalog and then go to picture/page 100. I think your watch is in the upper right hand corner of the photo.

We don't do valuations... too hard to be accurate on anything that is important. You can get an idea by looking at eBay listings, especially completed listings that actually sold.

I think this is a full lume dial.

I didn't see this sticky until after I posted a reply to another thread but I'm guessing it should really be posted here. Here's the link to the other thread and any help with the watch would be very helpful. Thanks in advance!!

Tag Heuer Grand Carrera (Calibre 17) with solid back case. Replica or original?

thanks for the help.

here's another that i'm looking at... i've seen the grey face models of this have markings on the bezel (cjf2115 i think) but the black and white/silver dont? still deciding between an aquaracer and a link but if you can help me determine if this is real or fake, that'd be great! thanks

It probably should be locked. But I haven't done it...
