Tag Heuer Professional Caliber ETA 955.112 | S-Link Bracelet | 1992 | Swiss

This timepiece is a magnificent artifact of the early 1990s, showcasing the revolutionary Sports Elegance philosophy that eventually evolved into the modern Link series. The reference S99.006K is defined by its avant garde architecture, featuring the world famous S link bracelet. These sinuous, hand sculpted links were designed to flow effortlessly around the wrist, offering a biomechanical feel that combines organic comfort with industrial strength. It is powered by a high grade Swiss Quartz movement, providing the split second accuracy required for a lifestyle by the high speed world of Formula One. The aesthetic is quintessentially 90s executive sport, featuring a clean white dial with hand applied baton indices and the iconic Mercedes handset. The substantial stainless steel case is crowned by an aggressively sawtoothed unidirectional rotating bezel, while the screw down crown ensures a professional 200m water resistance rating. This specific unit dates to approximately 1992, as confirmed by the original reference numbering system used before TAG Heuer shifted to its alphanumeric WG codes. This is an essential acquisition for a collector who appreciates motorsport heritage, the daring design of the Ayrton Senna era. Currently fits a 7.5” wrist and 2 additional links are included. There is a small scratch on the crystal in between the 4 and 5 indices. Such a comfortable watch to wear that is the perfect size and weight for everyday wear!
