Was given a Heuer “1000″ watch but it runs fast. Model #980.013L. Black face and bezel. Any idea of how much to get it fixed? Would it be worth it? Thanks!

Hi LS.

The NATO is certainly after-market…reckon this one only came on the two-tone bracelet. I’ll look in old catalogues, but think that the tropics only came on a few earlier 1000s, not these ones.

Cheers

Great article and comments. I have a TH 1000 (980.029b). Do you know what type of bands originally came with this model? Could they be purchased with a Swiss Tropic
style band and a Heuer buckle? Most I’ve seen have either the two tone PVD bracelet or some type of Nato band.

Thanks, Luke.

Hi Richard,

Two things that I can recommend.

1) Try placing a Wanted to Buy message on Chronotrader:

http://www.chronocentric.com/forums/chronotrader/

2) Watch eBay- these watches do come up quite freequently, although as you’d expect, not as often with a Heuer dial.

Cheers

David

Hi, I’m wondering if you could help me find a watch dial/face for my Heuer 980.006 L.

I am also wondering about if you have any names/contact info of those who might have the 980 series for sale. If I am having too much trouble restoring mine, I may just want to get another one.

Thanks very much. Richard

Hi Reza- sound like you have the “Military” PVD Pewter 1000 from the mid 1980s.

Price of these is almost solely down to the condition of the PVD finish on the case and bracelet- feel free to send a couple of photos.

Cheers
