Vintage Heuer 844-4 Dive Watch. Ultra Rare Heuer Watch. Black Dial. Tritium Lume

Description: Originally produced in the early and mid 1980s this incredibly rare Heuer 844-4 is a true unicorn with very little information available online. In the past six years I have seen only two of these references come to market; both in significantly more worn states. I purchased this watch from a consigner in Brazil where I believe the watch spent the majority of its life in a drawer. The watch is fully original and unpolished and is in incredible condition and even includes what I believe is the original case back sticker. I recently had a full service done on the movement as well as had the bezel click spring, gaskets, and crystal replaced and the hour, minute and second hand lume stabilized from the back. All original parts from pre-service are included (gaskets and crystal). Included in the sale is an extra original crown and crown tube. The crown in the watch now is original, and in very good condition, however, I purchased the additional crown to lock in future service. One note is when manually winding the movement the crown will occasionally jump. This has happened before and after service. The watch was serviced by a specialist in vintage Heuer dive watches and the watchmaker confirmed that this is normal operation with this movement and has to do with the clutch. The watch is sold as watch only and will include a third party metal bracelet and end links that I do not have attached to the watch, but the bracelet and end links do fit perfectly as it was on the watch when I purchased it.
