AUCTION WATCH: TAG Heuer Watches Sold in the Latest Fellows Auction


Fellows latest watch auction took place on the 18th June 2019 and included in the sale were thirty TAG Heuer wristwatches in various states of repair. I didn't watch the auction this time and it looks like some items failed to sell or were withdrawn as they don't have realised prices, this included a Carrera Jack Heuer Bullhead in steel which was described as being in good order but with no box or papers. Here are some highlights from the sale... and remember the price shown does not include buyer's premium of 32.5%!


Aquaracer Calibre S Regatta
Condition: Good overall / No box or papers
Price realised: £765.60


Carrera Calibre 16 Fangio Limited Edition
Condition: Some marks, including to glass / No box or papers
Price realised: £1914.00


Aquaracer Quartz Chronograph
Condition: Some marks including to glass / Box and papers (box sticky*)
Price realised: £535.92
*My wife's original 2000 came in a 'rubber' box, I'm assuming this is what they are referring to here as that also went sticky. I think what ends up happening is that the oils in the plastic/rubber react with something and start to leech from the surface. Not much you can do with it either, we ended up throwing it away, but not before I'd removed the plastic TAG Heuer shield. 


Link Calibre S Chronograph
Condition: Case has noticeable scratches, marks and dints / No box or papers
Price realised: £510.40


Monaco Calibre 12 Automatic Chronograph
Condition: Good overall but not currently functioning and hand detached / No box and papers
Price realised: £1786.40


Carrera Calibre 16 Chronograph
Condition: Light scratches to case with minor dints to bezel / Poor service box, no papers
Price realised: £1224.96


Carrera Calibre 16 Chronograph
Condition: Glass has some scratches and marks / No papers, box marked and flaking
Price realised: £1531.20


Monaco Calibre 12 Gulf Edition
Condition: Glass and case have scratches and marks / Comes with box and papers
Price realised: £3317.60
Seems rather high when you consider that you have to add on over £1000 of buyer's premium!
