I have a Tag Heuer Professional 200 meter divers watch that I have had in my possession for about 15 years. I purchased at an estate sale and have not worn it in about 5 years. I normally wear one of my Accutron Spaceview watches but have decided to change it up and wear it for awhile. Anyway, on the back of the watch, the serial number is 980.020D. Can someone tell me what this serial number says about the watch?

Other than that model number being from the "1000" series and made in the 1980's, i cant offer anything more. Serial# can be entered at ' trusted.com ' that should help confirm that the watch is legit.

Not being able to see (hint, hint, hint) the back of the watch, is it really the serial number, or the movement's caliber?

That "980.020D" is just the model #/ The serial number should be there too but it maybe inside the case back. If it doesn't have a serial# then there is a good chance that it is not a legit TAG

I removed the case back and do not see any numbers. I see no serial numbers on the back of the watch either. The model no. 980-020D is very lightly etched on the back of the case just above the word "SWISS". That is the only identification number I can find other than the stuff written on the movement itself.
