It's from the (sort of) crossover period when Tag-Heuer hadn't yet come out with new designs. One of the first things they did was ruin the Heuers (in my eyes) with a coloured Tag-Heuer logo. Which is what they did to this red diver. But they didn't quite ruin it because the logo goes rather well with the dial. The bezel has a nice, clean unfussy design, which makes it partly a Heuer to me, not a full Tag. I actually get emotional about this because I lost my Tag Heuer 2000, with a beautiful grey dial with uncoloured logo, when a minicab driver knocked me off my motorbike and nicked the watch while I was lying in the road. When I tried to replace it with a new one I found the design had been ruined by adding colours to the logo.
