Yeah, the more I look into it, it seems that way.. loving it.. It's the 844/3.. which puts it at about 1983 / 84.. but haven't yet tracked down the exact model anywhere.. plenty very similar, but mostly quartz or else without the 1000 type below the Heuer symbol..
Had this on since I got it last week.. really nice.. also found a 20mm oyster bracelet in my watch box.. so might try that on it.. @PawG wrist shot.
