Heuer
launched a range of divers watches in 1979 which
became the mainstay of the Heuer product range up
to the time TAG Group acquired Heuer in the mid
1980's. There was always equal emphasis on product
for both genders which was another first for Heuer.
The company embraced the quartz movement from the
start and the vast majority of variations were
supplied with these battery operated movements.
These fashionable tool watches were a commercial
success and were finally replaced in 1992/1993,
well into the TAG Heuer era.
The first
example of the Heuer divers watch were in fact
manufactured in France by G Monnin and included a
men's (42mm) and woman's (28mm) in both quartz and
automatic. There were dial, hands and bezel changes
as production moved to Switzerland but the basic
case shape, which distinguishes the Heuer diver,
was born in France and continued throughout its
existence to eventually become know as the 1000
Series. In time Heuer added the Deep Dive
(reference 980.023) and Super Professionals both
serious tool watches with 1000m depth ratings, as
well as some low cost models (mainly for women).
This
Heuer Dive Watch Reference Table covers the dive
watches made by Heuer from 1979 to the acquisition
by TAG in 1984/5. It does not however include the
later 2000 Series of watches which did feature dive
watches. This 2000 series range was vast and may
well form its own reference table, in time to come.

following shows the "family tree" of these

Please Help Us
Build this Divers Watch Reference
Table.
This Heuer Dive Watch Reference Table is being
released on October 31, 2010. In the near future,
we will add photos of these watches to OnTheDash to
correspond to this Reference Table. As we add
photos to OnTheDash, we will also add links in the
Reference Table to photos of each version.
Accordingly, the following would be especially
helpful:
- Photos
of Your Dive Watches. We will be creating a
Dive Watch section of OnTheDash, and are trying
to gather photos of as many models and versions
of these watches as possible. If you have a Dive
Watch that you would like to see shown
OnTheDash, please send us photos of your watch.
Please specify the reference number with any
photos that you submit.
- Comments,
Suggestions and Corrections. Writing this
Dive Watch Reference Table has been a
collaborative effort, with many members of the
OnTheDash / Chronocentric Heuer Discussion Forum
community making valuable contributions. We hope
that this Reference Table will be useful for
collectors of these watches, and we will welcome
any comments, suggestions or
corrections.
Authors of This
Reference
Table.
Paul Gavin took the lead in creating this Dive
Watch Reference Table, with input and assistance
from David Chalmers, Jarl Rehn-Erichsen, Marius
Jensen, Stewart Morley and Mark Moss; Paul also
provided the introduction to the table, above. My
role was limited to helping with the arrangement of
the table and then rendering it into HTML.
Please send
any photos, questions, comments, suggestions or
other messages realting to this Reference Table to
Jeff Stein at onthedash@bellsouth.net
or to Paul Gavin at paulgavin@ntlworld.com.
