Just found a Tag Heuer formula one watch like this:

But with a green bezel & red surround, my dad gave it to me years ago, the battery is dead & the strap is gone, I'm not a watch wearer.

Cant find much info about it after a quick google, just contemplating what I should do with it? Get it going again? or flog it on? (is there a retrobike for watches!?)

Depending on condition that is a very collectable item.

Look on ebay if it were mine id take it to the local place get a baterry and wear it on the bike..

Rough idea of value on [url= http://shop.ebay.co.uk/i.html?LH_SiteWideCondition=Used285fdd&_nkw=tag%20heuer%20formula%20one&_fln=1&_ssov=1&_trksid=p3286.c0.m282 ]FLEABAY[/url]

Certainly worth a new battery and strap !

It is in pretty good condition - just the usual wear & light scratches to the face.

You can get the straps for about£20 battery £25 ish. Agood TAG dealer should have them. Ive still got the yellow version of that Ive had for 20 years and still going strong.
Andy Hampsten used to wear a red/green one back in 7/11 days!
